To Re-Interate on my post of Sunday, February 22, 2009

I did say I would post my calculator pictures ... and because I am between two different places I just hadn't found the time .... SOOOOOO here they are:-




Now Although I had fallen behind after my sisters accident ....
I think I have only just managed to catch back up ....
The only thing I had trouble with within this form was a few spelling errors ...
and getting the result to align ... IT JUST WOULDN'T DO IT

Last's Weeks Programming class



Last Weeks one lesson was a jam packed week filled with mysterious objects called:-
"If" statements,
Logical operators e.g "And","Or",& "not"
and Message Box's ...
Last week We Created and If & Not statement program That included an option to choose cat or a dog.
I also added an option to choose "I don't like pets"
On the other side we Put "music prefrences"
I put the prefs "Hard Rock" & "Country" & "I don't like music" ...
E.G
So when the user clicks the Cat or Dog option it would come up with a message box stating their preferences E.G
Cats:-

Dogs:-

and Because I was bored and wanted to test what I learned I added in the option for no music:-

No Pets:-

On The other side of the form you also have the Music Preferences of Hard Rock, Country, and no Music .... Although I shoulda changed these to music I loved, I was happy to just fiddle with the code and add in the extra preferences that I did do .... But again it came up with the following once you selected one ....

E.G

Hard Rock:-

Country:-

And again I fiddled with the code to add in the third option and it displays

No Music:-

Though I am curious to if you can control the layout of these messages boxes to create I nice smooth visual scenario .... but I gather this will come into the time that follows

Formal appology

My appology to all within programing as I have not been keeping up with my blogs ....
Due to the kiddies and the endless other excuses I have for not doing such, but really tis my lack of ability of coming up with anything. Mainly due to my protest's towards blogs, but really in this case I do see it as a vital resource for teachers and students to be able to keep up with one another ....
So I shall re-attempt at writing at least one a lesson ....
your friend

As Per The Lady Rachael Requested

You have asked us all to research ascii and unicode ....
Though I am unsure as to if you do require all these codes I shall just give a brief explanation as to my interpretation of both ...
Ascii:-
ASCII stands for American Standard Code for Information Interchange .... because computers only understand numbers the code ascii is a numerical equivalent for all the characters on your keyboard ...
although if someone requires documentation in an ascii format then you would use a program like notepad as that writes in an ascii format with none of the glitter and glam of Microsofts Word
Unicode:-
Is a universal Code that gives each character a number that can be reconised across EVERY PLATFORM ... wether it is mac or pc or linux ....
Tis a brilliant system that should have been vigoriously implemented at computers first conception....
The Unicode Consortium is a non-profit organization founded to develop, extend and promote use of the Unicode Standard ...
