Program Plan Intro

Programming mistakes:

  • A fault in a program denotes a bug and process of elimination of bugs is termed as debugging.
  • A bug denotes an error, failure or fault in a program that may generate improper result.
  • The process of fixing bugs is termed as debugging.
  • Some of computer systems are able to deter, detect or auto correct different computer bugs during operations.
  • The bugs arise from errors made in source code of program.
  • The bugs can cause program to freeze computer in terms of processing.

Types of program errors:

  • The three main types of program error includes:
    • Syntax errors:
      • The compiler catches certain mistakes and denotes an error message.
      • It denotes violation of syntax of programming language.
      • The compiler issues an error message if syntax is been violated.
      • The compiler sometimes raises a warning message while any unusual programming practices.
    • Run-time errors:
      • It denotes type of error that system detects when a program is run.
      • The system may detect certain run-time errors and displays appropriate error message.
      • It may be an issue with numeric calculations.
    • Logic error:
      • It denotes a mistake in underlying algorithm.
      • It may be an issue while translation of algorithm to program code.
      • It denotes that there is no error in syntax while the result obtained is not as expected by user.
      • These types of errors could be corrected by careful examination of algorithm and translation.

TECNOLOGIE DEL WEB 2023/2023 (VER 1.1) Prof. Alfonso Pierantonio 1. Project Requirements The project consists in designing and implementing a Web application according to the methodology and the technologies illustrated and developed during the course. This document describe cross-cutting requirements the application must satisfy. The application must be realized with a combination of the following technologies: PHP MySQL HTML/CSS JavaScript, jQuery, etc templating The requirements are 2. Project size The application must have at least 18 SQL tables The number of SQL tables refers to the overall number of tables (including relation normalizations). 3. Methodology The application must be realized by adopting separation of logics, session management, and generic user management (authentication/permissions). Missing one of the above might correspond to a non sufficient score for the project. More in details: 3.1 Separation of Logics The separation of logics has to be realizse by using…
Write a C program to calculate the function sin(x) or cos(x) using a Taylor series expansion around the point 0. In other words, you will program the sine or cosine function yourself, without using any existing solution. You can enter the angles in degrees or radians. The program must work for any input, e.g. -4500° or +8649°. The function will have two arguments: float sinus(float radians, float epsilon); For your own implementation, use one of the following relations (you only need to program either sine or cosine, you don't need both): Tip 1:  Of course, you cannot calculate the sum of an infinite series indefinitely. You can see (if not, look in the program) that the terms keep getting smaller, so there will definitely be a situation where adding another term will not change the result in any way (see problem 1.3 – machine epsilon). However, you can end the calculation even earlier – when the result changes by less than epsilon (a pre-specified, sufficiently small number, e.g.…
