Bett 2017 Bulletin #3

January 20, 2017

My Bett week as a BASIC program. After looking at the program below, please attempt the questions on it.

10 Let A$ = “I wonder if I can slip away when nobody’s looking?"

20 Let B$ = "I feel so energised by the discussions today that I am too wired to sleep."

30 Let C$ = “Oh boy, do I feel rough. Why in heaven’s name didn’t I get an early night last night?"

40 Travel to Excel

50 Have meeting

60 Attend seminar

70 IF Hungry, THEN Eat, ELSE GOTO 50

80 Attend BettParty

90 Print A$

100 Travel to Home

110 Print B$

120 GOTO Bed

130 Print C$

Questions

  1. Insert some code to prevent the program 'getting stuck' between lines 50 and 70
  2. Insert some code to make the program repeat from Wednesday to Saturday.
  3. In your solution to Q2, justify your choice of code.
  4. Insert some code to make the program more interactive with the user.
  5. Why aren't you doing something more useful?

It wasn’t me wot done it, Sir! The depressing state of Computing as a subject

Here in England, students are voting with their feet: the numbers studying Computing at higher levels are going down. I hate to say "We told you so" but....

It's not as if nobody warned 'them'.
