In the project “How much water can different shapes of sponges hold?” there are many different components. Sponge are a key opponent cleaning, and absorption of water. Absorption is another important thing, absorption is necessary to absorb up water. Size and surface area are key points to see the outermost layer of things and measure many piece. These are the major components of the project “How much water can different shapes of sponges hold?”. Sponges are a tool for cleaning, and holding water. The definition of a sponge “A piece of light natural or artificial material that becomes soft when it is wet, is able to take in and hold liquid, and is used for washing or cleaning” from Merriam-Webster dictionary. The sponge has pores in which make them have holes that allow them to hold water. Sponges are made from cellulose wood fibers or plastic polymers. Infact sponges were invented by Du Pont company in 1940s. Water is one of the most important things on the planet. Also without water no animal or any species would be here today. Water covers ⅔’s of the earth, and 70 percent of earth's water is drinkable. The definition “clear liquid that has no color, taste, or smell, that falls from clouds as rain, that forms streams, lakes, and seas, and that is used for drinking, washing, etc.” from Merriam-Webster dictionary. Water is a basic thing in life like, how food and shelter is, but it is the most important. Metric measuring cups are important to measure liquids and most…

Object-oriented programming has opened the possibility that software components can be constructed and re-used with more credibility. Software developers can create software objects that model real-world objects, and then create variables and methods that constitute the object they are developing. Programming utilizing real-world like objects makes the development process easier and more relatable for the individual or team overall by making it easier to understand how objects are interconnected…

TRANslation was born, otherwise known as FORTRAN. Although IBM’s consultant advised against it, Hurd happily approved the project and Backus began gathering a small team of mathematicians and programmers to work alongside him. But the difficult part was not designing the language, it was translating the language to a language that the machine would understand directly. The device that would do this translation is called a compiler and would eliminate the lengthy hand-coding that was a part of…

in radiotherapy failed so badly that they distributed lethal doses of radiation to the patients, thus killing them. Before this, software developers were not a crucial part of the software design timeline. The first language that allowed programs to be written, thus potentially creating the software engineering discipline, was called FORTRAN and was developed in 1957. FORTRAN was not like the languages that are used to program computers now, as it used punch cards. Punch cards were the program,…

incorporate. Since a movie can only run for so long, many events in the space timeline had to be compressed. The movie is set in 1961 (06:51) with the exact timeline of the movie being from 1961 to 1692. [1] However, Dorothy Vaughan was already promoted to lead the West Area Computing unit in 1949. [2] Additionally she was also given full access to the laboratories. [2] so such a scene where Vaughan gets questions for being around the IBM (1:19:08) would have never occurred. Engineers also…

programming is something I could actually enjoy doing and so I have been working towards perfecting my skill. I have two major goals for the future the first is to eventually end up as a systems security expert because I just really enjoy finding flaws in code. The second thing is to improve technology to enable disabled people use computer easily. I went to school with some blind students so I really saw how they struggled using the GUI. The most important thing for me in the FORTRAN text was…

compact as you expect them to be today. The transistor changed the way people do their jobs, listen to music, buy items, pay their bills, etc… We need transistors in pacemakers in order to keep our hearts pumping; computer chips also run inside our cars and cell phones. The PC and the Internet would not have been utilized if it were not for microchip transistors (Gaudin). In 1953, Grace Hopper, an American computer scientist and US Navy Rear Admiral, invented the first computer language which…

Edward Yourdon, born in 1944, has made extensive contributions to the software engineering industry throughout his lifetime. After attending Massachusetts Institute of Technology and obtaining a bachelor’s degree in applied mathematics in 1965, Yourdon went on to begin his career in computing (O 'Regan). He began work as a programmer for Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC). From the 1960s to 1990s, DEC was a leading vendor of computer systems. Under their direction, Yourdon managed to develop…

programming language called Plankalül. Plankalkül was an algorithm programming language based on a high level programming model. Plankalkül is a short is a short expression I German for calculus for computing programs. It is based on the Binary data structure and supported a loop-free programming style for logical and relational problems. Zuse created Plankalkül to provide a generic formula for the construction of computing programs and hoped to provide a purely formal description for any…

is force to run to another building everyday just to go to the bathroom. Eventually Al had enough of Katherine leaving the office and confronts her in front of the team. Katherine emotionally states the inconvenience she goes through daily because there is not a bathroom for her. Therefore, Mr. Harrison decides to knock down the colored bathroom signs. Afterwards, Mary goes to court and convinces the judge to allow her to be the first black person to attend night classes at the all-white school…
