    Oh I took it that, when it went back to the top it read a new customer in.

    General Thoughts

    I said the logic error was that it only read one overdue payment, not all overdue payments.

    General Thoughts

    What about your algorithms for the payments one? Mine was like: BEGIN READ account record WHILE more customers WHILE payments overdue ADD to overdue list ENDWHILE ENDWHILE END Or something like that.

    Damn. Just re-read 1st MC, can't believe I didn't read that properly.

    General Thoughts

    I never learnt how to convert from binary to decimal for floating point, just the one way. Truth table/circuit was hard. I didn't get either marks there. I'd say I'll get 1-2 marks for the binary multiplication question, maybe 1 for the floating point and probably none for truth table/circuit...

    Yeah the robot one was good, but the other part was horrible.

    General Thoughts

    Did fine in core I think, should get like 45-47/60 for that, but option topic I'll get like 7/20 maybe, and probably 15/20 for MC. All up around 70/100.

    - 2013 evil bos questions-

    Definitely mention progressive taxation and transfer/social payments (centrelink), which both narrow the distribution gap. Also fiscal initiative such as NDIS which gives money to disabled (who are likely unemployed), will also narrow the gap.

    Globalisation

    I'd talk about how globalisation is integrating the world into one global economy. A major part of globalisation is the establishment of free trade agreements. These FTAs lead to inequalities through the exclusion of non-member countries.. etc etc

    AUD and internal stability?

    An appreciation of the dollar makes Australia's exports less competitive, therefore reducing demand. This leads to an oversupply and therefore reduces the price and inflation.

    1. 87 in hexadecimal, convert to binary 01010010, separate into nibbles (4 bits each) to get 0101 and 0010. That's 52. Hence, 82 in hexadecimal is 52. 2. 42 in binary is 00101010 so 2s complement for 42 is 11010110. 3. 34 + (-29) = 00100010 + 11100011 = 00000101 4. The agile approach is a much...

    algorithm design help :(

    I don't think there is one specific way to pseudocode. It should be descriptive and get the intent behind your algorithm across to the marker.

    I don't think it really matters how you index your arrays in pseudocode as long as you're consistent. As for the second thing, that's the opening line of a subroutine that takes the parameters read and write.

    It cuts the list in half every time, after 4, the whole list is checked.

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    I did it slightly different: f(x) = 2x^{2}-3x+C \\ \\ \indent $So, solve simultaneously with y.$ \\ \\ \indent 2x^{2} -3x + C = 5x - 7 \\ \\ \indent 2x^{2}-8x + (C+7) \\ \\ \indent $1 intersection when discriminant = 0$ \\ \\ \indent \triangle = (-8)^{2} - 4(2)(C+7) \\ \\ \indent 0 = 64 - 8C -...
