 it is a priority that students are provided with strong educational programs and courses that allow them to be servant-leaders in their disciplines and communities, linking research with practice and knowledge with ethical decision-making. This assignment is a written assignment where students will demonstrate how this course research has connected and put into practice within their own career.

Assignment:
Provide a reflection of at least 500 words (or 2 pages double spaced) of how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied, or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share times when you have or could observe these theories and knowledge could be applied to an employment opportunity in your field of study. 

Requirements:

Provide a 500 word (or 2 pages double spaced) minimum reflection.

Use of proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited. 

Share a personal connection that identifies specific knowledge and theories from this course. 

Demonstrate a connection to your current work environment. If you are not employed, demonstrate a connection to your desired work environment. 

You should NOT, provide an overview of the assignments assigned in the course. The assignment asks that you reflect how the knowledge and skills obtained through meeting course objectives were applied or could be applied in the workplace. 

   In this exercise, you will work with rivers data. The data pertain to the length of major North American rivers, and it is built-in data in R. You can access the data by typing: 

> rivers 

Your task is to build a function that returns descriptive statistics for different inputs. The function is named descriptive_function and has three arguments (i.e., another name of inputs). 

descriptive_function(list, char, num) 

The requirements of the function are as follows: 

· The function has three arguments. The first argument is a list of numbers in doubles. The second argument is a character, and the last argument is a number. 

· If char is ‘m ’, the function prints the arithmetic mean of the list. 

· If char is ‘v’, the function prints the variance of the list. 

· If char is ‘s’, the function prints the standard deviation of the list. 

· If char is ‘z’, the function prints the z-score of num with respect to the list. 

· You can use built-in R functions including mean(), var() and sd(). 

Sample test cases: 

> descriptive_function(rivers, ‘m’, 7) 

> descriptive_function(rivers, ‘m’) 

> descriptive_function(rivers, ‘s’) 

> descriptive_function(rivers, ‘v’, 8) 

> descriptive_function(rivers, ‘z’, 8)

 Mrs Parker owns and operates a meat shop that processes and packages parcels of minced meat that is being sold to schools in the US. Her scales are all calibrated to perform measurement in pounds, however when the parcels are packaged, they need to be labelled in ounces. Mrs Parker has established that 1 pound is equivalent to 16 ounces. In each production cycle, 250 packs of meat are processed and the weight in pounds varies for each package. Mrs Parker is also interested in knowing the total costs, the total revenue and the total profit of each production run, given that the costs to produce and package an ounce of meat is US $0.25 and that the selling price of an ounce of meat is US $0.55. Because you are a budding Software Engineer, she has sought your assistance in creating a software solution that can be used within the business establishment. 

Required: A. Specifically identify the type of control structure which is needed to process the meat in each production run and provide a reason for your choice (4 marks) 

B. Your solution needs to represent the meat packages which are to be processed, how would you represent this appropriately in your program and what has guided your choice?  (4 marks) 

C. Construct a C# program that will solve Mrs Parker’s dilemma by making use of the choices made above. 

i. Implementation of the control structure to process the meat (2 marks) 

ii. Implementation of the meat packages to be processed (2 marks) 

iii. Calculation of costs, revenues, and profits (6 marks) 

iv. Appropriate program outputs displayed to the user
