“At least twenty-five times I must have written that first one-page letter to him, over and over. I was trying to make it both legible and understandable. I practically couldn't read my handwriting myself; it shames even to remember it.” (Malcolm X 172). A simple, yet startling, reflection by Malcolm X an esteemed pillar of the civil rights movement. As he stared at his letter to Elijah Muhammad the embarrassment he that covered him did not deter him from his goal. The poor grammar and spelling…

Your learning journal entry must be a reflective statement that considers the following questions: 1. Describe what you did. This does not mean that you copy and paste from what you have posted or the assignments you have prepared. You need to describe what you did and how you did it. Read through required materials, and then accomplished the tasks required. I completed the first part of the discussion question earlier than previous weeks, which allowed others to read, and reply to it. I had…

CONCLUSION Within this conclusion, the three aforementioned inquiries posed within the portion titled “Bonding in Alcohols in Relation to Boiling Point” will be answered thoroughly within an analytic context. 1) “On average, by how many degrees celsius does the boiling point increase when the addition of an extra carbon atom in a straight-chain homologous series of saturated alcohols occurs?” On average, as per calculations conducted, the boiling point increases by a magnitude of…

The Critical Problem of Adult Illiteracy in the U.S. and Solutions to the Problem Frederick Douglass once said, “Once you learn to read, you will forever be free” (Cardoza, 2013). Millions of U.S. adults do not possess basic reading and writing skills, and may be deemed “illiterate” or “functionally illiterate”. “Illiterate” means unable to read or write at all and “functionally illiterate” means that one does not possess sufficient reading and writing skills to function successfully in…

risk of building a Feature that nobody wants while increasing the chances of delivering a High Value Feature earlier in the SDLC • Test-Driven Development (TDD): Breaking a product into shorter chunks, ensures there is enough time to write Unit and Functional Tests for the Features identified as MVPs. • Fast, High-Quality Delivery: TDD at each iteration leads to fewer bugs and higher-quality releases. • Teamwork: Emphasis on frequent communication and face-to-face interactions improves the Team…

Science programs in college I have only recently, in the last couple of years, started programming. During my senior year of high school a friend of mine and myself started playing around with C++ for fun during a vocational networking class accomplishing very little and not getting any desired results. At that time I had no clue that a couple short years later I would have a deeper understanding of proper programming methodologies and an understanding of a variety of languages to meet specific…

of delivering everything at the end, and solutions and requirements evolve sequentially. Product is broken down into incremental builds which are provided in iterations. Each iteration lasts typically almost one to three weeks, and requires cross functional teams to work together in different areas such as requirement analysis, planning, coding and testing. After each iteration, a working software build is delivered and working product is shown to all the important stakeholders, including…

Agile Model Agile Software development The agile development method is a hybrid between the incremental and iterative development model. The Agile software development ideology constitutes many offshoot development models; these include Extreme Programming (XP), Scrum and Dynamic System development model (DSDM). These models vary in the finer details of how these practices are implemented and are named, however, the core values in all of the agile development models are the same. (Elbana and…

Introduction Object Oriented Programming is a programming language type modeled around using combinations of data structures, or objects, instead of actions and data instead of logic. These objects are modeled off both the state and behavior of real world objects. They can exchange information with one another or can be combined with each other into blocks. The objects also have procedures that can access and modify the data of the object they are in. The programs are designed for the objects to…
