This is the first part which shows
how to create the program. This
program is about calculating the
UCAS point for university.
Each of these program contain different job.
Once you click on pass the ruler will move one step to the right, so merit and destination are
work the same just click it and it will work.
After you choose
your grade then click
on calculate UCAS
and it will calculate
it and it will show
either it pass, merit
or distinction

M2: Improve the user interface and functionality of an event
driven program based on a formal review
To improve my program I have to compare it to other
program, I need to create it more general to show more
impression and also I need to change the background that
everyone can see it properly. To improve it more I have to
give to each unit different page and different layout.
The other way to improve my program more buttons which
are clear, stop, resume and also important button is to go back
to original page
I can improve it by adding browse button and also I can put
MP3 to make it more interest.
To make it more attractive I have to add sound at the
background and make it more professional.
Masood Mohammad
unit 18
Improvement to my program which is below.
I made improvement which I added browser, MP3 and also I have added my name.
The other improvement I have made, is I have changed the colour of my program and also i
create clear button which if there is any error in text than rather than going Exit button to exit
the whole program can go to clear and it will clear the text only.
I think the improvement I have made is more interested than the previous one, because at the
same time doing the note they can also Liston to music, the browser I have create is which
you can go to any website you want to like any useful website.

M3: Compare the use and effectiveness of global and local variables
Global
A global variable is that accessible in every scope. Interaction mechanisms with
global variable are called global environment.
Global variable are used extensively to pass information between sections of code
that it don't share it. When a function is defined certain variables used for storing
values are incorporated inside the function. These variables are found and used only
inside these functions. Since functions are separate from the main code, it's
advisable to use variables that are initialized only when a function is called and die
when the execution comes out of the function. Variables that exist only inside a
function are called Local variables.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
// declaring variables:
int a, b;
int result;
// process:
a = 5;
b = 2;
a = a + 1;
result = a - b;
// print out the result:
cout << result;
// terminate the program:
return 0;
Variable
In computer programming a variable is a facility for storing data. The current value of
the variable is the data actually stored in the variable.
All the data that is input a program must be stored somewhere. Programs store this
data in defined memory areas called variables. Once the program ends all the
contents of variables are lost.
There are two main attributes of variables, one of which is a name, find the variable
inside of the program. The other attribute is a data type and what this is that
whatever variable the data can store the data type defines that data.
