Unit 8 Assignment and Research

Short Answers:
6. Its a sequence of instructions in a computer program which loops endlessly
Dim InfiniteLoop as Boolean = true;
For a = 1 to 45687999
If a = 45687999 And InfiniteLoop = true Then a = 1
End For
7. A while loop
8. So it doesnt contain garbage
9. Because the list is long of numbers and it will mark the end of the lists automatically
10. so that it will not be mistaken for a regular value or values in the list

3.
for I = 0 to 1000 step 10
Print i
4.
Declare Integer product
Declare Integer number
Product = 0
Do While product < 100
Display Enter a number
Input Number
Product = product + number * 10
Loop

Declare Integer count
For(count = 0; count <50; count ++)
Display The count is, count
10.
Declare Integer count
Count = 1
While count <= 50
Display count
Count = count + 1
End While

Display Enter the number of years:

Input Number of years
End Module
Module setNNumber(Real years, months)
Declare Integer counter number of years, months
For counter every year <= number of year
For counter every month <= 12
Display Please enter the rainfall in inches
Input number of inches
Set RealTotal rainfall = RealTotal rainfall + number of inches
End For
End For
Module showTotal number of months, total rainfall, total average
Number of months = numbers of years * 12
Display Number of months: $, number of months
Display Total rainfall: $, total rainfall

Display This program calculates the amount of money

Display a person would earn over a period of time
Display if the salary is one penny for the 1st day,
Display two pennies the 2nd and continues to double each day1
Display Enter the number of days worked:
Input daysWorked
Display Days Worked, Tab, Pay Each Day
Display
Calculate salary
While numDays, Tab, $dailyPayInDecimal
Set dailyPayInDecimal = dailyPayInDecimal * 2
Set totalPayInDecimal = dailyPayInDecimal + totalPayInDecimal
End While
Display results in a table
Display The total expenses for the month is: ,Tab, $,totalPayInDecimal

Research
Count Controlledone set variable to an initial value, Two a test must be done
before entering the loop, Three the variable must also be incremented each time the
loop body is executed.
Condition Controlled Loopsthe loop is controlled by a specific condition. The
loop will continue to run as long as the condition is fulfilled. So it uses a true/false
condition to control the number of times that it will repeat.
