PRG 211 Week 1 Individual Programming Fundamentals Paper
Identify a common task you do on a regular basis.
Write out the steps involved with performing that task in a way that you could hand
them to someone else who could carry them out for you. This should involve 10 to 20
steps overall.
Your final steps should be in a Microsoft? Word document in an easy-to-read format.
PRG 211 Week 2 Individual Visual Logic – Calculations
Select three calculation tasks a program could perform that would be useful.
Each task must include the following:
Inputing a value
2. Performing a calculation on that value
Outputting the value
Example calculations include the following:
Calculating sales tax on a sale
Converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius
Figuring out a total bulk sale price based on price per unit and number of units
Produce Visual Logic files to execute each of these steps.
Save all the files in a single folder structure you zip into a single file to submit.
Include a brief document that describes the name of each Visual Logic file and the
process it is performing.
PRG 211 Week 2 Learning Team Instructions Final Learning Team
Paper and Presentation
Submit a 1- to 2-paragraph Learning Team Status Report that includes what the team
accomplished for the week, any issues encountered, and plans for the next week.
Begin working on the Final Learning Team Paper and Presentation assignment, due in
Week 5.
Option 1: Calorie Management
Week 2: Learning Team Instructions - Algorithm Planning for Calorie Management
The first phase of your team's project is to plan how your team will develop a
program that calculates the user's daily caloric balance.
Create a complete list of activities, placed in logical order, that must be completed in
the first phase of the programming development cycle.
3. Determine the modules that are needed in the program.
Design a top-level algorithm that calls each module as needed.
Write a simple algorithm in pseudocode that lists the program's input, output, and
processing components in a logical, sequential order. At this stage, do not show the
tasks and subtasks within each component.
Option 2: Home Maintenance
Week 2: Learning Team Instructions - Algorithm Planning for Home Maintenance
The first phase of your team's project consists of two steps. Step 1 is to design the
application. Consider the following:
Which maintenance tasks will be included in your application?
Will these tasks be related to a specific purpose? If so, will this purpose be indicated
on the user interface?
Will the user interface consist of one or more screens?
How will the user enter the status of the each maintenance task? How will that status
be displayed?
Step 2 is to plan how your team will develop a program that calculates how many
tasks have not yet been completed.
Create a complete list of activities, placed in logical order, that must be completed in
the first phase of the programming development cycle.
Determine the modules that will be needed in the program.
4. Design a top-level algorithm that calls each module as needed.
Write a simple algorithm in pseudocode that lists the program's input, output, and
processing components in a logical, sequential order. At this stage, do not show the
tasks and subtasks within each component.

PRG 211 Week 3 Individual VisualLogic - Choice and Iteration
Select three tasks a program could perform that would be useful.
Each task must include the following:
A conditional step
Some form of iteration
Example tasks include the following:
Entering a number of items and calculating sales tax on a sale - Include a step offering
a warranty for each item.
Converting from Fahrenheit to Celsius or the reverse over temperatures for several
days
Figuring out a total bulk sale price based on price per unit and number of units
These items may build on the tasks used in your Week 2 assignment or may be
unique.
Produce Visual Logic files to execute each of these steps.
Save all the files in a single folder structure you zip into a single file to submit.
Include a brief document that describes the name of each Visual Logic file and the
5. process it is performing.

Begin the flowchart that will represent the algorithm.
Use Visual Logic to create the flowchart of the top-level algorithm.
Develop an algorithm in pseudocode that shows the tasks and subtasks for each
6. program module component that was in the simple algorithm you developed in Week
2.
Document the purpose of each task and subtask.
Option 2: Home Maintenance

program module component that was in the simple algorithm you developed in Week
2.
Document the purpose of each task and subtask.
7. PRG 211 Week 4 Individual Visual Logic – Array Manipulation
Select a task a program could perform over an array of items that would be useful.
Your task must include the following:
A useful array
Populating the array
Processing the items in the array
Outputting the results of the processing (This may or may not include displaying the
entire array.)
You can build this on your effort in a previous week or tackle a new challenge.
Produce Visual Logic files to execute the steps involved in this process.
Save all the files in a single folder structure you zip into a single file to submit.
