Wow my last three weeks of pre-term university (CO542 Fundamentals of Information Technology and Computing) are finally over and wow was it chaotic or what!<\/p>\n
I’ve had to do two java assignments, one xml assignment and one java\/xml in-class closed book assessment (exam) which I took today and was 2 hours long, and as rules like you can’t leave in the first half hour or the last half hour and if you want to go to the toilets you must be accompanied, fair enough I guess, but what’s weird is you can’t take drinking water with you in the exam because apparently someone put something in their water once to give them the ideas to the answers to the exam, wow!<\/p>\n
Anyway at least pre-term is finished well except for the fact that we still have one more week left to hand in our last Java assignment as some extra time was given so we could study for the exam as well as concentrate on all these lab and lecture sessions we had, which reminds me I better check some answers to the questions that came up in the exam.<\/p>\n
And hey if you like a bit of Java why not test yourself on some of these sample questions which are similar to the ones I had, these of course being easier ones as the harder ones took up a whole sheet and involved writing code, all of this on paper of course!<\/p>\n
1. (a)<\/strong> Which one of these class headers identifies that Member is a superclass of (b)<\/strong> Which one of these class headers identifies that FootballTeam is a subclass of 2. (a)<\/strong> MailItem is an abstract superclass of the concrete classes Letter and Which one or more of the following assignments will be rejected at compile And here’s some XML Sample ones:<\/p>\n 1.<\/strong> Briefly describe three ways of associating CSS with an HTML document Easier enough no? well these ones are but trust me the more complicated ones are well more complicated! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Anyway on another story, two weeks ago I was invited by MSN UK to beta test the new MSN portal for mobile which brings together the best of MSN’s content with Windows Live Services (Mail, Spaces & Search) as well as brining along some cool new features to your mobile.<\/p>\n And guess what, I was one of the first 100 people to complete the MSN Portal for Mobile survey so I was sent (thanks msn) a cool Creative MuVo Mp3 player, which will surely come in handy, actually I’m using it now while writing this blog post and checking out the new MSN Portal for Mobile for any more suggestions I can think of!<\/p>\n Ok I better not bore you anymore with my ramblings and I’ll end it here with a list of modules I’ll be taking this Autumn at University just in case you are wondering! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n Compulsory modules<\/strong><\/p>\n Optional modules<\/strong><\/p>\n Have a nice day everyone! \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Wow my last three weeks of pre-term university (CO542 Fundamentals of Information Technology and Computing) are finally over and wow was it chaotic or what!

\nCoach?
\ni) public class Member super Coach
\nii) public class Coach is Member
\niii) public class Coach extends Member
\niv) public class Member sub Coach
\nv) public class Coach inherits Member<\/p>\n
\nTeam?
\ni) public class FootballTeam is Team
\nii) public class FootballTeam inherits Team
\niii) public class FootballTeam extends Team
\niv) public class FootballTeam super Team
\nv) public class FootballTeam sub Team<\/p>\n
\nParcel. Constructors of these three classes take no parameter. The following
\nvariables are defined:
\nMailItem m;
\nLetter el;
\nParcel p;<\/p>\n
\ntime? The mark will only be awarded for a completely correct answer.
\ni) m = new Parcel();
\nii) el = new Letter();
\niii) m = new MailItem();
\niv) p = new Parcel();
\nv) m = new Letter();<\/p>\n
\n2.<\/strong> Explain, with an example of each, the following terms in relation to an XML document: (a) XML Declaration, (b) element and (c) attribute.<\/p>\n\n
