Activity 14- Exe Project

Case Study 14.1—New Jersey Kills Hudson River Tunnel ProjectThis case illustrates the challenges in making an early termination decision.  Often, particularly in the case of public projects, there is a real difficulty in stopping a project once it has gotten “on the books.”  As a result, projects with huge cost overruns, like Boston’s “Big Dig” are allowed to continue almost indefinitely.  New Jersey Governor Chris Christie made a tough call in deciding to cancel the Hudson River Tunnel project because he was given a number of rosy projections that did not match the actual costs incurred to that date.  This is a great case to let students pick sides: should Christie have cancelled the project or not? There are arguments to be made that the need was strong (although others could argue that the need was over-sold).  On the other hand, the history of the project to date and the uncertainty about future federal funding made it a real gamble, especially during a time of economic recession.Questions

  1. How would you respond to the argument that it is impossible to judge how successful a project like this one would have been unless you actually do it?
  2. Take a position, either pro or con, on Christie’s decision to kill the ARC. Develop arguments to support your point of view.
  3. In your opinion, how clearly must a large infrastructure project like ARC have determined its need, costs, and so forth before being approved?  If the criteria are too stringent, what is the implication for future projects of this type?  Would any ever be built?

Python 1111 ……4

 Functions ProgramYou will be developing a Python program to process a set of integers, using functions, including a main function. The main function will be set up to take care of the following bulleted items inside a loop:

  • The integers are entered by the user at the keyboard, one integer at a time
  • Make a call to a function that checks if the current integer is positive or negative
  • Make a call to another function that checks if the current integer to see if it’s divisible by 2 or not
  • The above steps are to be repeated, and once an integer equal  to 0 is entered, then exit the loop and report each of the counts and sums, one per line, and each along with an appropriate message

NOTE 1: Determining whether the number is positive or negative will be done within a function; and then a call to that function will be made from within the main function.The following is what you are to do within that function:

  • if an integer is positive,
    • add that integer to the Positive_sum
    • increment the Positive_count by one
  • If the integer is negative
    • add that integer to the Negative_sum
    • increment the Negative_count by one

NOTE 2: Determining whether the number is divisible by 2 or not will be done within a second function; and then a call to that function will be made from within the main function.The following is what you are to do within that function:

  • if the integer is divisible by 2
    • increment the Divby2_count by one
  • if the integer is not divisible by 2
    • increment the Not_Divby2_count by on

——————————————————————————————————————————————————-NOTE 3:It’s your responsibility to decide how to set up the bold-faced items under NOTE 1 and NOTE 2.  That is, you will decide to set them up as function arguments, or as global variables, etc.A sample program run is attached below.  It illustrates user’s interactions with the program, as the program is run, data is entered one at a time, until a sentinel value is entered.  At that time then, contents of the output variables are displayed: Lab 4 – Sample Program Run.pdf Lab 4 – Sample Program Run.pdf – Alternative Formats  =======================================================================You need to set up a   Python solution that is   complete and   workable.  

For your solution to be   complete, you must

  • Prompt the user for the specific input data asked for within the problem statement
  • Set up a correct formula to process the input data, arriving at the output data
  • Provide the output data asked for within the problem statement to the user

For your solution to be   workable,

  • Your solution should be free of any type of errors (syntax, run-time, logic)
  • You may want to develop an algorithm first, using pseudocode or flowchart
  • You do NOT need to turn in any algorithm

========================================================================Grading rubric:

  • You’ll receive full credit, if 
    • your program
      • compiles and runs with no problems 
      • produces the expected output
  • You’ll receive partial credit, if 
    • your program
      • compiles and runs with no problems 
      • produces partial output (that is, incomplete output)
  • You’ll receive 25% of the points, if your program will not compile
  • You’ll receive 30% of the points, if your program compiles but has a run-time problem
  • You’ll receive 40% of the points, if your program produces logic error(s)
  • You’ll receive 50% of the points, if your program compiles and run, but no functions are used

#Excel_2G_Condiments_Inventory

Project Description:

#In the following project, you will edit a worksheet that summarizes  the inventory of Condiments and Toppings at the Valley View facility 

#Open   the Excel workbook Student_Excel_2G_Condiments_Inventory.xlsx   downloaded with   this project.

#Change the Theme to Ion. Rename   Sheet1 as Condiments and Sheet2 as Toppings. Click the Condiments sheet tab   to make it the active sheet.
 

  #If the theme is not available, click Browse for Themes, navigate  to the files   you downloaded with this project, and then select Ion.thmx.

#To the right of column B, insert   two new columns to create new  blank columns C and D. By using Flash Fill in   the two new columns,  split the data in column B into a column for Item # in   column C and  Category in column D. Type Item # as the column title in column C and Category as the column title in column   D. Delete column B. Cut column C, Category,   and paste it to column G. Delete the empty column C.  

#Display the Toppings worksheet,   and then repeat Step 3 on this worksheet.

#Without grouping the sheets,   make the following calculations in both worksheets:
   • In cell B4, enter a function to sum the Quantity in Stock data, and  then   apply Comma Style with zero decimal places to the result.
   • In cells B5:B8, enter formulas to calculate the Average, Median,  Lowest,   and Highest retail prices, and then apply the Accounting  Number Format.

#Without grouping the sheets,   make the following calculations in both worksheets:
   • In cell B10, enter a COUNTIF function to determine how many different types   of Relish are in stock on the Condiments   sheet and how many different types of Salsa are in stock on the Toppings worksheet.
 

#Without grouping the sheets,   make the following calculations in both worksheets:
   • In cell G14 type Stock Level.
   • In cell G15, enter an IF function to determine the items that must be   ordered. If the Quantity in Stock is less than 75, the Value_if_true is Order. Otherwise, the Value_if_false is OK. Fill the formula down through   all the rows.

#Without grouping the sheets,   apply the following formatting in both worksheets:
   • Apply Conditional Formatting to the Stock Level column so that Text that   Contains the text Order  are formatted with Bold Italic, a Font Color using in the fifth    column, the first color, and a Fill color set to No Color. Apply  Gradient   Fill Red Data Bars to the Quantity in Stock column.
 

#In the Condiments sheet, format   the range A14:G42 as a table with  headers and apply Sky Blue, Table Style   Light 20. If the table style  is not available, choose a similar style. Insert   a Total Row, filter  by Category for Relish, and then Sum the Quantity in   Stock column.  Record the result in cell B11.

#Clear the filter from the table.   Sort the table on the Item #  column from Smallest to Largest, and then remove   the Total Row. On the  Page Layout tab, set Print Titles so that row 14   repeats at the top  of each page.

In the Toppings sheet, format   the range A14:G42 as a table with  headers and apply Light Green, Table Style   Light 19. If the table  style is not available, choose a similar style. Insert   a Total Row,  filter by Category for Salsa, and then Sum the Quantity in Stock    column. Record the result in cell B11.

#Clear the filter from the table.   Sort the table on the Item #  column from Smallest to Largest, and then remove   the Total Row. On the  Page Layout tab, set Print Titles so that row 14   repeats at the top  of each page, and then save your workbook.

#Group the two worksheets. Merge   and center the title in cell A1  across the range A1:G1 and apply the Title   cell style. Merge and  center the subtitle in cell A2 across the range A2:G2   and apply the  Heading 1 cell style. AutoFit Columns A:G. Center the   worksheets  Horizontally, and then change the Orientation to Landscape.

#Save your workbook and then   ungroup the sheets. Click the Toppings  sheet tab, and then insert a new   worksheet. Change the sheet name to Summary and then widen columns A:D to 170 pixels.   Move the Summary sheet so that it is the first sheet in the workbook.

#In cell A1, type Valley View   Inventory Summary.   Merge & Center the title across the range A1:D1, and then apply the Title   cell style. In cell A2, type As of June 30 and then Merge & Center the text across the   range A2:D2. Apply the Heading 1 cell style.

#On the Condiments sheet, copy   the range A4:A8. Display the Summary  sheet and Paste the selection to cell   A5. Apply the Heading 4 cell  style to the selection.

#In the Summary sheet, in cell   B4, type Condiments. In cell C4, type Toppings. In cell D4, type Condiments/Toppings. Center the column titles, and   then apply the Heading 3 cell style.

#In cell B5, enter a formula that   references cell B4 in the  Condiments sheet so that the Condiments Total Items   in Stock displays  in B5. Create similar formulas to enter the Average Price,   Median  Price, Lowest Price, and Highest Price from the Condiments sheet into    the Summary sheet in the range B6:B9.

#Enter formulas in the range   C5:C9 that reference the Total Items  in Stock and the Average Price, Median   Price, Lowest Price, and  Highest Price cells in the Toppings worksheet.

#In the range D5:D9 of the   Summary sheet, insert Column sparklines  using the values in the Condiments   and Toppings columns (insert in  each cell individually). Format the   sparklines using the first five  styles in the first row in their given order.   To apply the Sparkline  style, on the Design tab, in the Style group, click   More, and apply  the first five styles in the first row.
 

#To the range B5:C5, apply Comma   Style with zero decimal places,  and confirm that the Accounting Number Format   is applied to the range  B6:C9. Center the Summary worksheet Horizontally and   change the  Orientation to Landscape. Insert a custom footer in the left   section  with the file name.
