Discuss the potential biases that may exist in different public health datasets. Feel free to focus on specific datasets or types of data that you are familiar with, but you can also consider the following types of data:

• Infectious disease data from public schools
• Fall data from nursing homes
• Opioid overdose data from first responder reports
• Genetic risk profiles from rural regions in developing countries

Instructions:

1. Your discussion should include the types of explicit and implicit biases that may be in the data, as well as how both sampling and reporting biases may play a role in the data creation process
2. Finally, describe the ideal process for creating the data (as unrealistic and infeasible as it may well be), and
3. Identify steps to creating a feasible dataset on the topic that either reduces biases as much as possible or at least would allow public health experts to better understand the limitations of the data

 Respond to the discussion about algorithms and their roles below using 150 words or more. 

At  the most basic level, an algorithm is simply a set of step-by-step  instructions that we utilize to accomplish a specific task. We use  algorithms every single day in our day-to-day activities: Brushing our  teeth, getting dressed, driving to work, making dinner. These daily  tasks which we complete are all composed of a set of instructions that  starts with a certain action and ends with a certain action.

In  the realm of computer programming, algorithms are utilized to enhance  the efficiency, effectiveness, and functionality of the programs we  create. Two such types of algorithms are searching algorithms and  sorting algorithms.

Sorting  algorithms are designed to sort an array of objects into a specific  order. Searching algorithms are designed to compare the elements of an  array to find a particular value within an array of objects. Just a few  examples are search engines, the sorting of a business’ online item  inventory, and sorting/searching a database of students who attend a  university.

There  are multiple approaches which people have taken to solve the issue of  sorting and searching an array of items. Two frequently used searching  algorithms are linear search and binary search. Three frequently used  sorting algorithms are insertion sort, selection sort, and bubble sort.

Each  of these types of algorithms have both pros and cons associated with  them. The main properties that we want to keep an eye on when choosing  an algorithm are memory usage, maintainability, and time complexity. It  is always best to assess the situation and to use discretion when  choosing which algorithm that we want to implement into our program.

Payroll Lab

You will be taking in a file (payroll.txt) which details a number of departments (at least 1) and in each department are a set of employees (each department will have at least 1 employee or it would not appear on the payroll sheet). Your job is to read the file in separate out each employee and calculate the total values (hours, salary, number of employees) for each department and in each category (F1, F2, F3, F4). In your final submission please include the .cpp file which should work for any kind of payroll file I supply (which will naturally match the format of the examples below). Be sure to indicate in your submission text if you have attempted any of the bonus points .

An example file:

The IT Department
Bill 8 7 8 9 7 F1
Bob 205103 0.08 F3
Betty 8 8 7 8 8 F2
Brandon 10 10 9 6 9 F2
Brad 9 8 10 9 9 4 1 F4

The Sales Department
Kyle 88840 0.105 F3
Tyler 105203 0.085 F3
Konner 8 6 7 6 9 F2
Sam 309011 0.045 F3
Kent 9 8 9 9 9 0 0 F4

An additional example file:

Mark 98103 0.115 F3
Jill 8 8 8 8 8 F2

Frank 106101 0.095 F3

Last in the row after the hours comes the pay grade (F1, F2, F3, F4). The number of hours recorded is based on the pay grade of the employee. F1 and F2s will have 5 numbers for their hours. F3s are commission based where a sales amount and a commission percentage is given. F3s are also assumed to work 30 hours if their commission is 10% or below and 40 hours if their commission is above 10%. F4s will have 7 numbers (as they are on-call during the weekend). Each of the pay grades will also have different pay calculations which are as follows:

F1 = The total number of hours * 11.25
F2 = (The total number of hours – 35) * 18.95 + 400
F3 = The total sales amount * the commission rate
F4 = The first 5 hourly totals * 22.55 + Any weekend hourly totals (the last 2) * 48.75

Your output to the screen should start with the department name, followed by the total pay for all of the employees, then the total number of hours, and the total number of employees. After that you should have a breakdown of each category of employee: F1 total pay and total hours, F2 total pay and total hours…

Each department will have at least 1 employee and each department will contain the word “Department.”

Before coding your solution, take the time to design the program. What are the possible things that the file can have that you need to anticipate? What are the actions that you need to take (read the file, add up hours…)? Are those actions things that could be placed in separate functions? What about the function – can you guess some of the things that will happen? Such as, using substring to pull out part of a line in the file maybe using stoi to convert a string to an integer to add it to the total or creating variables to hold the employee type you find before passing it to another function. Finally, how are these functions called, what is the order and what information is passed to and from? 

Scoring Breakdown
