- Answers lines of code, users (via keyboard, voice, mouse, touch, etc.), magnetic strips, RFID devices, OCR characters, databases and files, etc. validate data - Answers do not assume data is clean or valid sequence check - Answers the control number follows sequentially and any sequence or duplicated control numbers are rejected or noted on an exception report for follow-up purposes limit check - Answers data should not exceed a predetermined amount range check - Answers data should be within a predetermined range of values validity check - Answers programmed checking of the data validity in accordance with predetermined criteria reasonableness check - Answers input data are matched to predetermined reasonable limits or occurrence rates table lookups - Answers input data comply with predetermined criteria maintained in a computerized table of possible values existence check - Answers data are entered correctly and agree with valid predetermined criteria key verification - Answers the keying process is repeated by a separate individual using a machine that compares the original keystrokes to the repeated keyed input check digit - Answers a numeric value that has been calculated mathematically is added to data to ensure that the original data have not been altered or an incorrect, but valid, value substituted completeness check - Answers a field should always contain data rather than zeroes or blanks duplicate check - Answers new transactions are matched to those previously input to ensure that they have not already been entered logical relationship check - Answers if a particular condition is true, then one or more additional conditions or data input relationships may be required to be true and consider the input valid units of code are stored in? - Answers modules when calling a function that will not return a value, you can use: - Answers functionname(list or arguments shared with function) when calling a function that will return a value or values, use: - Answers objecttostorereturnedvalue = functionname(list of arguments shared with function) beginning and end of logic blocks or units of code? - Answers the def keyword, along with colon and indentation, marks the beginning and end of function units of code the structure principle - Answers Your design should organize the user interface purposefully, in meaningful and useful ways based on clear, consistent models that are apparent and recognizable to users, putting related things together and separating unrelated things, differentiating dissimilar things and making similar things resemble one another. the simplicity principle - Answers Your design should make common tasks simple to do, communicating clearly and simply in the user's own language, and providing good shortcuts that are meaningfully related to longer procedures. the visibility principle - Answers Your design should keep all needed options and materials for a given task visible without distracting the user with extraneous or redundant information. the feedback principle - Answers Your design should keep users informed of actions or interpretations, changes of state or condition, and errors or exceptions that are relevant and of interest to the user through clear, concise, and unambiguous language familiar to users. the tolerance principle - Answers Your design should be flexible and tolerant, reducing the cost of mistakes and misuse by allowing undoing and redoing, while also preventing errors wherever possible by tolerating varied inputs and sequences and by interpreting all reasonable actions. the reuse principle - Answers Your design should reuse internal and external components and behaviors, maintaining consistency with purpose rather than merely arbitrary consistency, thus reducing the need for users to rethink and remember. scope of values - Answers deals with lines of code and their ability to see the values stored in variables and object properties block scope - Answers available only within the code block in which it is declared (e.g. If, Case, Do, For) procedure scope - Answers available to all code within the procedure in which it is declared module scope - Answers available to all code within the module, class, or structure in which it is declared namespace scope - Answers available to all code in the namespace in which it is declared positional arguments - Answers argument values are copied to their corresponding parameters in order keyword arguments - Answers you can specify arguments by the names of their corresponding parameters and not follow the order listed in the function definition statement default parameters - Answers you can specify default values for parameters. the default is used if the calling line of code does not provide a corresponding argument python arguments are passed by - Answers assignment data casting - Answers a data type is converted into another data type by a programmer using a casting operator data conversion - Answers a data type is converted into another data type by a complier (the computer) implicit conversions - Answers does not require any special syntax in the source code because Python attempts to perform the conversion for the programmer explicit conversions - Answers type casting is explicitly performed by the programmer use a type conversion keyword/operator required when data/information might be lost in the conversion, or when the conversion might not succeed for other reasons build errors - Answers prevents code from compiling - syntax errors - compile errors : cannot be detected on a single line basis run-time errors - Answers code that can work under some conditions, fail under others because you do not find error until it is run application programming interface (API) - Answers a set of functions that allows applications to access data and interact with external software components if then else statements: - Answers if : #code block here will execute #when logic test 1 is True elif : #code block executes if logic test 1 is #False and logic test 2 is True else: #else has no test and executes when if #and all elif are False javascript - Answers - primary language used for everything we do on the web - many servers and various development environments also use it JavaScript was initially created to.. - Answers "make web pages alive" programs in JavaScript are called - Answers scripts - they can be written right in a web page's HTML and run automatically as the page loads scripts.. - Answers are provided and executed as plain text. - they don't need special preparation or compilation to run JavaScript can execute.. - Answers not only in the browser, but also on the server, or actually on any device that has a special program called the JavaScript engine squence: - Answers what step(s) should always be undertaken? decision: - Answers what step(s) should be undertaken 0 or 1 time? repetition/looping/iteration: - Answers what steps should be undertaken 0, 1 or many times? structuring logic - Answers main process (roadmap of key tasks/logic flow) which should include calls to a series of subprocesses (that carry out the steps associated with each task), enabling you to reuse subprocesses for different algorithms VB - decisions - Answers if then, if then else, if then elseif, case VB - repetition - Answers do test condition at top, do test condition at bottom, while test condition at top, for next with counter, for each next object in collection Python - decisions - Answers if, if else, if elif Python - repetition - Answers while test condition at top, for counter, for iterate through each object in the collection For (counter) code: - Answers defines a counter range, used if you need a task performed X number of times, programming language tries to protect you from infinite for loops, counter iterates at bottom, default is to increment by 1 but step allows you to set a different increment level python comment: - Answers # VB comment: - Answers ' VB - storing values - Answers variables, object properties, arrays Python - storing values - Answers objects (properties), lists, tuples, dictionaries, sets VB - declaration - Answers requires declaration unless you alter this with option explicit VB - arrays - Answers declaring (rows then columns, redim with and without preserve - including limitations such as can't alter both dimensions when redim with preserve) Python - declaration - Answers objects are implicitly declared (when/where first assigned a value) objects - Answers classes, collections, methods, properties, key OO concepts VB input - Answers input and message boxes Python input - Answers print VB - scope of code based on two factors - Answers 1) in which container is unit of code stored
