Question one and two

Find all the prime numbers (such as 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, …) between 1 and 4027. To print the primes, write a function which prints a list in a table which “reads down”, using as few rows as possible, and using as few sheets of paper as possible, given the number of columns for the table. Print this table to a text file. The parameters of the functions should be the list, the number of columns desired, and a file or file name, if used. (For the purposes of this project, open the file and print the table using an editor or word processor.) Each number should be right-justified in its column. The height of the columns should all be the same, except for perhaps the last column, which might have a few blank entries toward its bottom row.
After printing the table of primes, print a second table (to a separate file) of the twin primes found among the original prime numbers, again reading down. Finally, print to the console the following statistics: number of primes found and the number of twin prime pairs found

Write a program GuessGame.java that plays the game “guess the number” as follows: Your program chooses the number to be guessed by selecting an integer at random in the range 1–1000. The program then displays the following in a label:
 

I have a number between 1 and 1000 can you guess my number?
 

Please enter your first guess.
A JTextField should be used to input the guess. As each guess is input, the background color should change to either red or blue. Red indicates that the user is getting “warmer,” and blue indicates that the user is getting “colder.” A JLabel should display either “Too High” or “Too Low” to help the user zero in on the correct answer. When the user gets the correct answer, “Correct!” should be displayed, and the JTextField used for input should be changed to be uneditable. A JButton should be provided to allow the user to play the game again. When the JButton is clicked, a new random number should be generated and the input JTextField changed to be editable

Exp19_Excel_Ch03_ML1_Airports

Project Description:

As an analyst for the airline industry, you track the number of passengers at the top six major U.S. airports: Atlanta (ATL), Chicago (ORD), Los Angeles (LAX), Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW), Denver (DEN), and New York (JFK). You researched passenger data and created a worksheet that lists the number of total yearly passengers at the top six airports. To prepare for an upcoming meeting, you will create a clustered column chart to compare the number of passengers at each airport. Then, you will create a line chart that compares trends over time. Next, you will create a bar chart to compare the passenger count for the latest year of data available and then emphasize the airport with the largest number of passenger traffic. Finally, you want to insert sparklines to visually represent trends in passengers at each airport over the 10-year period.

Start   Excel. Download and open the file named Exp19_Excel_Ch03_ML1_Airports.xlsx. Grader has automatically added   your last name to the beginning of the filename.

You want to create a clustered   column chart to depict the passenger counts at the six airports over several   years.
  Use Quick Analysis to create a clustered column chart for the range A4:L10.   Cut the chart and paste it in cell A15.

You want to customize the column   chart with a chart title, display the years as a data series, enlarge the chart   to be easier to read, and apply a chart style.
  •Type Passengers   by Top U.S. Airports   as the chart title.
  •Swap the data on the category axis and in the legend.
  •Set a 3.5″ height and 11.4″ width.
  •Apply the Style 7 chart style.

The value axis takes up a lot of   space for the numbers. You will adjust the value axis to simplify it.
  •Change the display units to Millions for the value axis.
  •Edit the axis title to display Millions of Passengers.

You want to focus on the 2016 data   series by adding data labels.
  Display data labels above the columns for the 2016 data series only.

Applying a fill color to the   chart area will make the chart visually appealing.
  Apply the Light Gradient – Accent 2 preset gradient fill to the chart area.

A best practice is to add Alt   Text to a chart for accessibility compliance.
  Add Alt Text: The chart displays the number of passengers in millions   for the top six airports from 2006 to 2016. (including the period).

When you change the workbook   theme, Excel applies that theme to the chart styles.
  Change the workbook theme to Slice.

You want to create a bar chart   to display passenger counts for only one year.
  Create a recommended clustered bar chart for the range A5:A10 and L5:L10 and move   the chart to a chart sheet named Bar Chart.

You want to customize the bar   chart.
  •Change the chart color to Colorful Palette 3.
  •Enter Passengers   at Top 6 U.S. Airports in 2016 as the chart title.
  •Apply the Style 5 chart style.
  •Add Alt Text: The bar chart shows passengers at Top 6 U.S. Airports   in 2016. Atlanta had the most passengers. (including the period).

Modifying the axes will improve   readability of the bar chart.
  •Change the font size to 10 for the category axis and value axis.
  •Change the value axis Maximum Bound to 1.1E8.

You will format a data point so   that it stands out and then add gridlines to enhance readability in the bar   chart.
  •Format the Atlanta data point with Dark Blue, Text 2 fill color.
  •Add Primary Minor Vertical gridlines.

A line chart effectively shows   trends over time for the passenger counts at the different airports.
  Create a line chart using the range A4:L10 in the Passenger worksheet and   move the chart to a chart sheet named Line Chart. Add a chart title Passengers   at U.S. Airports 2006-2016 and bold the title.

You want to customize the line   chart.
  •Set the Minimum Bound at 4.0E7 for the value axis. The Maximum Bound should change to 1.1E8   automatically.
  •Set the Vertical (Value) Axis Display units to Millions. Delete the Vertical   (Value) Axis Display Units Label from the upper-left corner of the chart. Add   a value axis title In Millions.
  •Change the font size to 10 for the value axis and category axis.
  •Move the legend to the top.
  •Filter the chart by deselecting the odd-numbered years.
  •Add Alt Text: The line chart displays trends for top six U.S.   airports from 2006 to 2016 at two-year intervals. (including the period).

Research question 

You should aim to outline a research question. This research question defines what you want to study and is the first step in development of your project proposal.

Aim

Produce a summary of what your project will achieve in one or two sentences. 

Background, Motivation and Relevance – literature review

· Set out and justify, using supporting literature, where your work will fit in the computing body of knowledge. 

· Outline and critically discuss what relevant research has been undertaken, in the past, in your area of interest and why this project is necessary. 

· Outline and critically discuss why the research will be of value, in the future, and what the anticipated impact of the outcomes will be.

· Provide a diagram such as a mind map illustrating the position in the computing body of knowledge.

· Outline why you want to undertake this work, some areas to consider are, personal motivation, skills set and career choices, a gap in the knowledge base.

Scope, Objectives and Risk

· Outline and justify the scope of your project – what you intend to do, you may also want to say what you will not include but might be expected by others to be incorporated.

· Outline numbered steps (SMART Objectives) you will have to complete in order to achieve the aims and would provide sufficient work to conclude your research question. 

After each objective outline the deliverables and or outcomes that will be produced as a result of this objective’s work.  Outline how you will assess and or measure the quality for that objective. Outline what research method/design you will adopt for each objective and how each method will support one another.

· Break down the objectives into tasks and produce a task list, each task should outline, deliverable, resources (all types) required, skills required, time required.

· Produce a risk log (see example on your Blackboard Assessment tab) for you project. Each objective should be assessed based on risks, such as technical, personal, resources, time, and costs etc factors.

Sources and use of Knowledge

· Identify and justify a journal where your work would be relevant for publication.

· Identify and apply aspects of the standards for publication in the target journal that you can incorporate into your project proposal, so for example the referencing system, font style and pitch etc, instructions usually found under the journal’s advice to authors.

· Identify, justify and critically discuss any authors, journals where previous relevant research has been published within the last 5 years. 

· Ethics, Legal, Social, Security and Professional Issues

Using literature, write out a separate section for Ethics, Legal, Social, Security and Professional Issues. In your deliberations discuss, explore and define all of the issues associated with your project, including how you will consider security issues. If you think an area of this section is not applicable to your project, you should justify why this is the case; leaving any section blank will result in a loss of marks.

Schedule of Activities

Using your task list, construct a Gantt chart and a Monitoring and Control table (see examples given your Blackboard Assessment tab. The monitoring and control table is set up in this proposal but used during the execution of your KF7029 project.

References: these should be primarily used to support your Background, Ethics, Legal, Social, Security and Professional Issues sections and include the latest relevant research in your chosen topic area. All references in the reference list must also appear within the body of the report. There is no ideal number of references recommended but a guide might be no less than 10 – 15 sources should be used.

Ethics process- every project must be ethically approved you should complete a draft of your ethical approval process before submitting your proposal, you will conclude the ethical submission after receiving your feedback from your proposal. Failure to carry out the ethics process will result in you not being able to start your project; it may also mean a 5% reduction in marks. To draft your ethical approval, go to “ethics online”, via your My Northumbria page. You will be asked for the following information:

Module tutor (enter Shelagh Keogh)

Supervisor (enter the name of your supervisor)

Coordinator (enter the name of your supervisor)

A sample ethics submission is available on Blackboard.

Presentation Guidelines

Notes on presentation & submission:

The research report must be written and presented to an appropriate academic standard for a postgraduate programme of study. 

· The proposal will be assessed in terms of style, meaning, and the accuracy of spelling, grammar, punctuation and syntax.

· Correct and thorough referencing of your sources of information is required. You should follow a consistent referencing system, and provide a full reference list and brief references in the text of your answer. ‘Cite them Right’ advises direct quotations should be indicated by quotation marks or indentation, and referenced. Failure to acknowledge your sources or to indicate when you are quoting constitutes plagiarism. You are encouraged to work with each other to discuss the challenges encountered, but you must not work with each other to construct your answers. Action will be taken in accordance with the University regulations if academic misconduct is suspected. This may result in a loss of marks for the assignment or module.
