Enhance the display by making the word change color, move, or change
to another language (such asHola) when the user clicks on a button or
hovers the mouse over the object.
Write the code for the program and test the results.
Zip the files of the project together and attach to your reply post to this DQ.
DQ 3
Find a resource on the Internet that assists programmers with VB.net. Review
the site and give us the URL.
Is this site worth using? Does the site cater to beginners or advanced
programmers? Would you recommend this site to your fellow students to help
them with their VB programming? Why? Why would you use, or why would you
not use this site?
POS 408 Week 2 Individual Assignment Home Utility Auditing Program
Design, implement, test, and debug a Visual Basic program to create a
simple home utility auditing program.
The user should be able to do the following:
Enter the cost per kilowatt-hour.
Select a home appliance from a list of home appliances.
Enter the power needed in kilowatts (kW) for the selected appliance.
Enter the number of hours used per day for the selected appliance.
The program should do the following:
Validate that the data entered has the correct format and is within a
reasonable range.
Calculate and display the cost for operating a home appliance as soon as the
data is entered.
Required programming components
Use a Try/Catch
Use at least one loop
Use a decision structure (if, or case)
Create a design flow chart.
Use properly labeled and named text boxes, labels, buttons and forms (see
the text for proper naming conventions). Include an exit button. Make sure
the buttons work.
Be generous with internal documentation. Should have as many lines of
documentation as you do code.
Design a GUI for the program that will be intuitive for a novice user.
Write the code for the program and test the results.
If you cannot figure this out, then look at the other students work and see
how they did it. I will post a simple solution near the end of the week. If you
spend more than an hour or so on this you may be making it harder than
it is. I am able to accomplish this with only a few lines of code.
DQ 3
Write a 200- to 300-word short-answer response to the following:
In the context of Visual Basic programming, what is an event?
Give three examples of events and elaborate on when these events
would/should be used.
POS 408 Week 3 Individual Assignment Enhanced Home Utility Auditing
Program
Design, implement, test, and debug a Visual Basic program to create an
enhanced home utility auditing program based on Week Two.
The user should be able to do the following:
Enter the cost per kilowatt-hour.
Select from a list of home appliances which includes a washer, among other
appliances.
Enter the power needed in kilowatts (kW) for the selected appliance.
Enter the number of hours used per day for the selected appliance.
If the washer is selected, enter both the number of gallons of water used by
the washer per hour and the cost per gallon. (If another appliance is used,
have the user enter all the criteria needed to calculate usage and cost.)
The program should do the following:
Validate that the data entered has the correct format, and is within a
reasonable range.
Calculate and display the cost for operating a home appliance as soon as the
data is entered.
Create a listing area to display each of the following for each appliance
entered:
Home appliance
Number of hours per day
Cost
Display and update the total cost of all appliances, as soon as a new entry is
added to the listing area.
Required programming components
Include all functionality and programming requirements from the previous
weeks
Format all floating point numbers to two decimal places and align all columns
in lists.
Input from the user should not allow invalid amounts (letters, blanks,
amounts too high or too low)
Use other VB objects to make a professional looking form. Use as little space
as possible (do not use the entire screen). Think about how this could be
made easier for the user.
Use fonts and colors schemes that look professional
Create a flow chart.
Be generous with internal documentation
Write the code for the program and test the results.
Zip the files of the project together.
Post the zipped project folder and flow chart as separate posts in the
assignment tab. Name the flow chart document, flow chart.
Submit the zipped file.
POS 408 Week 3 DQS
DQ 1
Reflect on the information from an article you find on the Internet or
elsewhere that relates to the topic. Select ONE article and write your
reactions, thoughts, and experiences related to the article. As long as the
article is somewhat related to our class topics, or to technology generally, it
will be fine.
Please do not simply just recap or recite what you read. As part of your
response please include the following:
Have the user enter an answer. Let them know if they answered the question
correctly.
Create random numbers for the questions.
You can group the questions in groups of ten or so, and give them a score
like, You got 8 out of 10 Correct!!
You can tell the program to do just addition, or a combination of question
types.
There is no right or wrong way to do this.
I hope you have fun with this and watch how others create their application.
Dont feel like you need to spend a lot of time on this. If you make an attempt
you will get the DQ points.
This can be a useful application for your kids or grandkids.
DQ 3
Create a flow chart.
You have a robot standing and facing a set of stairs. We do not know how
many steps it will take for the robot to get to the stairs and we do not know
how many stairs there are. You need to write a flowchart to get the robot to
the top of the stairs.
Your robot can do the following: 1. take a step forward 2. take a stair-step up
3. has an electric eye to know whether the next step is a stair or not.
If your robot takes a stair-step and there is no stair as the next step, your
robot will fall down.
See the example flowchart in the Materials for week three.
Create your flowchart in Word drawing objects using the template I attached
so we are all on the same platform and can see each others flowcharts.
Attach your Word document in reply to this thread.
POS 408 Week 4 Individual ASSIGNMENT Data Structures in a Visual
Basic Program
Design, implement, test, and debug a Visual Basic program to create an
