Textbook Question
Chapter 2.1, Problem 14E
(Data processing) a. A national medical testing laboratory wants a new computer system to analyze its test results. The system must be capable of processing each day’s results as well as retrieving and outputting a printed report of all results meeting certain criteria, such as all results for a particular doctor or for hospitals in a certain state. Determine three or four major
b. Suppose someone enters incorrect data for a test result, and the error is discovered after the system has entered and stored the data. What program unit is needed to correct this problem? Discuss why such a program unit might or might not be required by most systems.
c. A program unit has been developed that allows users to change data that has been entered and stored incorrectly. Discuss the need for including an “audit trail” that would allow reconstructing the changes later as well as when they were made and who made them.

4. Breaking the Codeby CodeChum Admin
ATTENTION SOLDIER!
This will be the hardest mission of your life. Our intelligence department has caught the enemy sending codes from one base to another. These enemy codes can either be a simple communication message or a mastermind plan.
Our intelligence department has determined that a mastermind plan is a code that has at least 1 consonant character.
Since you know programming, your task is to check a code if it is a mastermind plan or not.
Instructions:
In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for a code. Furthermore, there is a call to the function, hasConsonant().Your task is to declare and define this hasConsonant() function which has the following details:Return type - intName - hasConsonantParameter:char* - to hold the character arrayReturn value - 1 if there is at least 1 consonant and 0 if there is none. Be sure to consider both the capital and small letter consonants…

The person had been hired into the company's IT department to work at the help desk and it turns out that he was on parole for another felony. The employee had not lied in his application about being on parole, but according to the company's policies the hiring manager did not get to see the whole personnel file for new hires. a) Did the HR staff that should have reported to the hiring manager the candidate's conviction and parole commit an ethical lapse, or was it just a clerical error?arrow_forwardSoftware requirements engineering Question: No. 1 A centralized lock control system which controls the locks of all external doors in University buildings is to be implemented. Some requirements for this system are: a. Staff and students are issued with a card which provides them with access to those buildings which they are authorized to use after normal working hours. b. Access is implemented by wiping a personalized card through a card reader and, if entry is allowed, the door lock is released. c.3 Users must use the card to both enter and leave locked buildings. d.

- Problem 1) Simple Boolean logic operations. Assume we have four input data samples {(0, 0), (0, 1), (1, 0), (1, 1)} to a model. Perform the followings in Python: a) Plot the four input data samples. Label the axes and title as appropriate. b) Write a function that takes two arguments as an input and performs AND operation. The function returns the result to the main program. c) Write two additional functions like in part (b); each would perform OR and XOR operations and return the result to the main program. d) Create a for loop to call the three functions each for data sample each time. e) Store the output of each function in a separate list/array. f) Print out the results for the three functions at the end of your program. g) Note: do not use the internal Boolean (AND, OR, XOR) functions in Python; instead, utilize conditional statements to perform the desired operations.arrow_forward1.Full code and plotting neweful.
