ITECH1400 Foundations of Programming

Learning Outcomes Assessed

The following course learning outcomes are assessed by completing this assessment:
K1. Identify and use the correct syntax of a common programming language.
K2. Recall and use typical programming constructs to design and implement simple software solutions.
K3. Reproduce and adapt commonly used basic algorithms.
K4. Explain the importance of programming style concepts (documentation, mnemonic names, indentation)
S2. Write and implement a solution algorithm using basic programming constructs.
S3. Demonstrate debugging and testing skills whilst writing code.
A1. Develop self-reliance and judgement in adapting algorithms to diverse contexts.
A2. Design and write program solutions to identified problems using accepted design constructs.

Choose a favourite sports person – Roger Federer or Serena Williams for example. How were their Biorhythms in their last tennis match? Did they win? If not what were their adversary’s Biorhythms like?

Biorhythms indicate that we are at our peak when all three curves are at their maximum. How often could we expect to experience this in our lifetimes? 10, 50 or 100 times or more? Modify your code to determine this.
