AP Computer Science Principles

After five minutes going over the three questions that follow, three minutes introducing a web application to schedule before school and Archer period help, and three minutes for Grant to show us his turle program, we will share our presentations of Chapter 6: Computers can Name Anything.

Let's start with the following questions:

1. How does the Internet work with the different equipment in use?
   1. The routers adjust for the different equipment manufacturers by sending data on the same equipment brands.
   2. Specific companies are approved to make equipment for the Internet.
   3. Vendors follow the protocols established to enable data to be sent and received across any equipment.
   4. The server farms handle the data once the data reach the Regional ISP (Internet Service Provider).
2. How is the Internet scalable?
   1. Through the ability for additional networks and routers to be added without impacting service
   2. Through the ability to add longer public keys to keep data secure
   3. Through the ability to add additional authentication for users
   4. Through the ability to add additional bandwidth to requests
3. What is the definition of bandwidth?
   1. The frequency at which data can be transmitted across the Internet
   2. The speed at which data can be sent through the Internet
   3. The amount of data that can be transmitted in a fixed amount of time
   4. The delay between the request and the receipt of information on the Internet

Complete as many exercises from Chapter 6 Exercises as you can in the 90 minutes allotted for your homework. Make a new directory in your git repo named something like Ch06 and add solutions to each exercise in a separate file.

We will go over solutions to these exercises in class on Tuesday.

This assignment is due Monday, October 17 at 7 am.

Let's start with the following questions:

1. What happens when you clean data?
   1. Corrupt data records are corrected or removed.
   2. Incomplete data records are completed or removed.
   3. Duplicate records are removed.
   4. All of the above.
2. What is the binary equivalent of the decimal number 217?
3. What is the process where algorithms are used with historical data to attempt to predict human needs or requests for imformation?
   1. Data excavation
   2. Trend prediction
   3. Social analysis
   4. Machine learning

Which of the 5 Big Ideas from our APCSP curriculum do the above questions evaluate?
