Multiplication algorithm

Initial Goals: My initial goals for the program was to take in an equation like 5*(4/3+2^(3-1)) and return the answer to it (26.666667 in this case). I intended it to work with simple arithmetic (multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, exponents, and parentheses). My initial brainstorming resulted in an iterative action. The program would follow the order of operations and begin with the contents of innermost parentheses and replace that portion of the input with the answer before…

Thesis Statement: “Electronic devices should not be allowed in classrooms because it can greatly influence a student’s ability to stay focused while in school (attention span  distractions), while also electronic devices in the classroom can greatly hinder a student’s ability to fully engage and properly interact with others, which can lead to other more serious and complex issues down the road (lack of participation  isolation  possible mental health issues). And finally, heavy technology…

Planning, performing and reporting are the three major stages of auditing. The first stage in an audit is the planning stage. The planning stage consists of getting to know the client, pinpointing factors that could impact the risk for a material misstatement for the financial records, and creating an audit strategy (Wiley,2015). Marilyn Terrill is the senior auditor for the the Uden Supply Company audit, for this client she will need to perform the analytical procedures and calculate the…

two out of the four were correct. Firstly the answer would need to consist of algebra ( when we use pronumerals when representing unknown values ) (mathlab) given Claire thinks of the number n, secondly multiplying n by itself, which introduces multiplication in superscript form (the superscript tells you how many times you are to multiply the number or variable it is next to) Study.com (2003-2016). Showing the sum so far as n 2 (n multiplied by itself e.g. 22) with the two placed up to the…

would first write PEMDAS on the board which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction. I would put brackets around M and D, and A and S, to show that they are grouped together in the order of operations. “One misconception by students is that all multiplication should happen before all division because the multiplication comes before division in the acronym. In fact, multiplication and division have the same precedence and should be evaluated as they…

Understanding of multiplication facts is essential to have down by fourth grade. Knowing the times tables and being able to fluently recall immediately is needed throughout the entire year because of PA Mathematics Standards beginning with multiplication of multidigit numbers. There were students in my fourth grade classroom that had yet to be fluent with their multiplication facts, and it was necessary for them to have it down, for everyday mathematics and for the PSSA’s. I discussed with my…

I became interested with an Information Security Analyst because my father is one. Every take your child to work day I would wake up early with my dad and run to his car excited to go to his office for the day. The building is a plain, brown brick building, but every time I saw it, I instantly got excited. Walking into the office everyone knew my name, I would always wave at everyone I saw. The secretary always gave me a lollipop and called me her “Little bundle of sunlight”. I would then go…

their accent is the normal, and a person with a Boston accent does not think they have one. Clive Thompson’s article “He and She; What’s the Real Difference?” explains an experiment that created an algorithm that is able to identify whether a piece of text was written by a male or female. The algorithm is surprisingly very accurate, and is more often correct than incorrect; furthermore, it uses keywords to be able to identify the gender. Paul Roberts’ article “Speech Communities” is an in depth…

The ability to understand programming and all of its algorithms will grant anybody the power to keep up with technology. This is why elementary schools need computer science classes integrated into their curriculum. Teaching young children how to program will evolve the world in new ways by allowing these individuals to create new applications and technology. Since there are not any computer science related courses offered in elementary schools, they are restricted from the opportunity to learn…

In the article, “Grace Murray Hopper – Programming Pioneer”, author V. Rajaraman summarizes the life and accomplishments of Grace Murray Hopper, a woman who is credited for several major computer and technology developments. Rajaraman goes into extensive detail about Hopper’s early life, such as how Hopper focused heavily on her education in order to receive a PhD in Mathematics at Yale University which soon lead her to become a math professor at Vassar College. Rajaraman also mentions how…
