WJEC Computing CG3 - 24th May 2010

Because I didnt put a foreign key to the manufacturer table?

Lmao, in the "blah blah blah" bit, I think I wrote that even if a higher process goes to the front of the list of processes, the processor will continue moving round the processes, which could mean that lower priority processes are being serviced before the higher priority one which could be a disadvantage if the high priority one is really important.

I remember in lesson someone asked my teacher whether to start an array at 0 or 1 and she said as long as you're consistent it doesn't matter, so I don't know...

Did you do 2 For Next loops?

Oh, and I mentioned polling (you've gotta love polling ) where the processor asks each process if it would like a time slice :P

To conclude a For Next loop it's simply 'Next'? Like this :

For Index 0 to 11
Some crappy code blah blah blah blah etc
Next

That's it! o.O

I just got this image in my head of the processor walking up to a process with a tray of cakes in the shape of clocks saying "Would you like a time slice?" Lmao!!

......

Gah - it's so obvious! I was writing it like "For Next Blah 1 to 12 / End loop" and I knew it was wrong, but we've never used them in class and I didn't use it in my coursework, either, so I couldn't figure out why. I knew you wrote the do until with an end loop, though, so I just shoved that in. I hope they appreciate my effort anyway; it still works kinda. :P

Haha, yeah, that's a neat image. It's definitely an easy point to remember. It's kind of weird to be able to just forget everything now, like all the definitions and junk. I'm not going to worry too much about the errors I made because I did that last year and it came out fine on results day. So, hm...that's the end of that! Do you have many exams left?

I've actually got a mock one tomorrow which I don't know anything for, so I better start thinking about that I guess.

AMY!
As if I've found you on TSR!
In a computing thread of all places < 3333333

I'm laughing so hard right now.

for the 3NF, from the table with errors...
Did you guys see that 'Peddals' had a different code?

The coursework is certainly not out of 100!!! Its out of 70. For example, I got 76% in my coursework, so I got 53/70 = 53 ums points.

Overall, the paper was fantastique'. What I prayed for, is what I got like Recursion, HCI, expert systems, Binary trees....


Though I really really really really hated the algorithm question
