Wk 1 – Introduction to Blackboard Ultra Quiz [due Mon]
Complete the “Introduction to Blackboard Ultra” tutorial.
Blackboard Ultra is a software-as-a-service product; therefore, updates and developments are made to Ultra on a continuous basis to best serve your learning needs. Notification of these updates and developments will appear in the Ultra environment within a banner, as well as appear on the Release Notes pages of Chalk it up! site.
The Introduction to Blackboard Ultra tutorial is correspondingly updated to reflect these software changes; however, this may not be simultaneous with the occurrences, so you may see slight variances in the tutorial as compared to the actual classroom environment.
Wk 1 – Create an Algorithm Using Pseudocode [due Mon]
You work in the IT group of a department store and the latest analytics shows there is a bug that allows customers to go over their credit limit. The company’s president has asked you to develop a new algorithm to solve this problem.
Create your algorithm using pseudocode that determines if a department store customer has exceeded their credit limit. Be sure you gather the following inputs from the user:
Account number
Balance of the account
Total cost of all the products the customer is looking to purchase
Allowed credit limit
After you gather the inputs, make sure your algorithm calculates if the user can purchase the products and provides a message to the user indicating if the purchase is approved or declined.
Document your answers in a Microsoft® Word document.
Review “Understanding Object-Oriented Programming” with Jungwoo Ryoo from Lynda.com® for additional guidance.
