Igoogle

Igoogle is a personalized web page. As you can tell from the title this is a service from google. There is a number of things that you can do on this webpage. You can add photos, news, weather and stuff from across the web to your page.
The igoogle gadgets interact with the user. Some of these include:
  • Framed Photos = which displays a series of photos
  • Google gram = the creation of special daily messages
  • Daily me = it displays the current mood of the user
  • youtube channel = displays videos from youtube
  • countdown = a countdown timer
AND MANY MORE.
there is alot of stuff that are useful.

Themes can be also changed. You can select themes are best representing yourself. There is quite a big range of themes to pick from.

Overall i think it is a great webpage.

Programming Assesment Task Documentation

Introduction
The purpose or problem that the Pogram Visual Basic is undertaking is to see who wins the game of noughts and crosses. It is to accomodate the players with pleasure. This game is to especially entertain 2 players per game. When the 2 players decide on who is noughts and who is crosses the game will begin,  the program will automatically tell you who wins. they decide who is nougths and who is crosses they would begin the game. Also The program will tell whos turn it is next.


Algorithm outlining the Program
My flowchart below shows on how the game of noughts and crosses, the works of the game.



















Explanation of Data Tyes used
Text;
ElseIf Button4.text = "X" And Button5.text = "X" And Button6.text = "X" Then
MsgBox("Player X wins!1")
Label6.Text += 1
Call disablebuttons( )
This label is a text variable. This label is needed for people to see what is happening with the game .
There is also a button for instructions involving text, score and  the outcome in whether you won, lost or drew, involving text.

Integer;
Dim turn As Integer


Control Structure examples
Sequence;
 This section is to be placed at the beginning of the coding section. Without this section the program will not work.

Selection;
If Button1.text = "X" And Button2.text = "X" and Button3.text = "X" Then
Msgbox("Player X Wins!!")
Label6.text +=
Call disablebuttons ( )
This part of the coding is the selection which involves and and if. This tells the computer that it is compulsory to make the selection out of these.\
Also another way of selection to take action is by starting a new game and that is by clicking New Game.

Repetiton:
There is no repetition in my game, however by playiong the game over and over again,


Use of Error Detection
The program of Visual Basic stops error by restricting the chances and benefit the user to enter the incorrect values. I have made my game to prevent any failures that may take place during this game.

Hi Lo Guessing game

I was away yesterday so i have no clue in what to do but when i asked someone for help it just clicked to me.
So here is a screen shot of my project.

Generating a number generator

So today i am going to owrk on this. It looks hard let us see  how i am going to cope with it.
So i basically opened up a new project in visual basic. i made a form with a button and a text box. I double clicked the button and i pasted this code in:






So here are screen shots of my final prooject:


HOW KOOL!!
  • The function Randomize is  to initialize Visual Basic's random number generator. This is to avoid the same sequence of psuedo-random values.
  • RND is a function of Visual Basic. This is used to return pseudo-random values. The RND is also used to bring back the pseudo- number.
*pseudo= most computers don't generate truly random values. Computers use complex mathematical formulas to generate values which look random by aren't. Formulas are complex, they are still predictable. Random numbers generated by computers can be thought of a very, very long list of values. The computer always return the values in the same order, but it doesn't always start at the same place of the list.

Variables

Variables are "containers" for values that can be used by a program. Varibales can contain numbers or text. Variables are given names sot hey can be referred to in the programming code.

 
                                                        Making these were soo fun and interestingg.

Programming Terminolgy;

Programming terminology is sooo funn!!


My topic is Samples using selection and repetition. This is what i wrote;

These are some samples of selection and repetition. The selection control allows the statement to be executed if it is true and the other set to be executed if it is false. The repetition control is known as the looping control structure. It repeatedly executes one or more steps of an algorithm or program.

Heads and Tails

This activity was quite interesting. I had some difficulties but them realised in what i did; I DIDNTREAD THE TASK PROPERLY.
So here arre some screen shots of my finished work.
