Class 8-Prog(Swap)

Pg :103 Q4

Swapping means exchanging . Here the values of 2 variables should be exchanged.

Imagine you have 2 jars with different liquids. You need to swap the liquids. What will you do? You will take one more jar to do this. Same technique we are applying here too.

We need the third variable to swap the given values.

Class 8 - Operators

Class 8 -Sample Programs

1. Assign three numbers and find the average

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim a, b, c As Integer ...................... Step 1 (Decaration)
Dim avg As Integer     ....................... Step 1
a = 2                            ........................ Step 2 (Assign)
b = 3                            ........................ Step 2
c = 14                          ........................ Step 2
avg = (a + b + c) / 3    ........................ Step 3 (Calculation)
Print avg                     ........................ Step 4  (Display )
End Sub

The answer for the above program is (14+2+3)=19/3=6.33333
but we will get 6, because the data type of avg is integer,which will give only whole number.

To get the correct answer, we have to change the data type.

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim a, b, c As Integer
Dim avg As double
a = 2
b = 3
c = 14
avg = (a + b + c) / 3
Print avg
End Sub

2. Accept the side of a square, and display its perimeter.

Perimeter=4 x side

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim side ,peri As Integer .......... (Decaration)
side=val(text1.text)          ........... (Input)
peri=4 * side                    ........... (Calculation)
Print peri                          ........... (Display )
End Sub

3. Area of rectangle = Length x breadth

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim l,b,area As Integer .......... (Decaration)
l = val(text1.text)          ........... (Input)
b = val(text2.text)
area = l*b                     ........... (Calculation)
Print area                       ........... (Display )
End Sub

In the above program, we should use two text boxes to accept length and breadth from the user. * should be used for multiplication symbol.

4. Volume of a sphere = 4/3 pi r³Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim r As Integer .......... (Decaration)
Dim vol as double .......( The answer will be in decimal since we are multiplying by 3.14)
r = val(text1.text)          ........... (Input)
vol = 4/3 * 3.14 *r*r*r     ........... (Calculation)
Print vol                      ........... (Display )
End Sub

We cannot use the symbol for pi, so we have to use the value which is 3.14.
Instead of r*r*r we can also use r^3

5. Volume of Cylinder = pi r²h

Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim r,h As Integer
Dim vol as double .......( The answer will be in decimal since we are multiplying by 3.14)
r = val(text1.text)
h = val(text2.text)vol = 3.14 *r*r*h    OR ( 3.14* r^2 *h)
Print vol
End Sub

Friends
</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor=olive text =white>
<center><h1>FRIENDS</h1></center>

Written with a pen, sealed with a kiss, 
If you are my friend , please answer me this: 
Are we friends, or are we not? 
You told me once, but I forgot. 
So tell me now, and tell me true, 
So I can say I'm here for you.
Of all the friends I've ever met, 
You're the one I won't forget. 
And if I die before you do, 
I'll go to Heaven and wait for you, 
I'll give the <h2>angels</h2> back their wings 
And risk the loss of everything. 
There isn't a thing I wouldn't do, 
To have a friend just like you!

Class 8 - Program(sum)

Class 9 - Scanner

Input Method:

We are going to use Scanner for accepting values from the user . Its a simple one.

First include the package util.

import java.util.*;

Only small letters and * indicates all the files from the package and there is a semi colon in the end.

Then comes the main function

public static void main( )
{
Scanner S=new Scanner(System.in);

Remember S in red colour are capital letters. Here S is a variable can be in small or capital letter or any other variable name.

There are different statements for accepting different data type values.

int a= S.nextInt( );

float f= S.nextFloat( );

double x=S.nextDouble( );

But accepting character and string are different.

char ch=(char)System.in.read( );

String st=S.next( );

String st1=S.nextLine( );

next( ) accepts a word till a space and keeps the cursor in the same line.

nextLine( ) accepts words and moves the cursor to the next line after accepting the value.

Let us accept two numbers.

import java.util.*; ------------------------------------ 1

class ex1
{
public static void main( )
{
Scanner s=new Scanner(System.in); --------------- 2
int a, b,sum; --------------------------------------------- 3
System.out.println("Enter the first number"); ------ 4
a=s.nextInt( ); ------------------------------------------- 5
System.out.println("Enter the second number");----- 4
b=s.nextInt( );-------------------------------------------- 5
sum=a+b; -------------------------------------------------6
System.out.print("Total = " +sum);------------------- 7
}
}

1 is the first line in the program.

2 Write any variable instead of s , if you want.

3 is variable declaration.

4 is just a prompt message. A remainder to the user to enter a number.

5 Since I am accepting integer values, it should be nextInt. Remember no space after next and I in Int is capital.

6 is the calculation

7 is the output.

For other programs step 3 and step 5 will be different according to the data type you use.

Class 8 - Inputbox

There are 4 steps in a program.
1. Declaration (dim)
2. Assign / Input the value
3. Calculation(if any)
4.Output(Msgbox/Print)

Class 8 - Activity(Pg 86)

1. Declare the integer variables x,y and z

Dim x,y,z as Integer

2. Assign values 5 to x, 10 to y and 15 to z

x=5
y=10
z=15

3. What are the values of C, N1, N2, N3 :

A=5
B=10
C=A+B
N1=A+10
N2=B
N3=5+N2

C=15( since A is 5 and B is 10)
N1=15 ( A is 5 and add 10 to it)
N2=10(B is 10)
N3=15 (N2 is 10 and add 5 to it)

3. Declare a string variable Friend, a numeric variable Num1 to store a decimal value. Assign the value 'Vedika' to the string variable created above.

dim Friend as String

dim Num1 as double

Friend = Vedika

Class 8 - Declaring a variable

Declaring a variable is used to reserve space in memory. There are 2 types of variable declaration:

Implicit declaration
Explicit declaration

Implicit Declaration :

Whenever VB comes across a variable, it is assigned a default data type.

Explicit Declaration :

When the user wants to specify the data type of the variable, then it is called declaring explicitly.

Dim statement is used to declare a variable.

Syntax :

dim variable name as data type

Example :

dim a,b,c as Integer
dim m as single, i,j as Integer

String variable declaration :

String declaration is little different from other data type declaration.
There are two types of string declaration.

Variable Length
Fixed Length

If we want to enter a data of any length then it is variable length.

dim name as string

If we want to enter a data with a particular length, then it is called fixed length.

dim name as string * 3

In the above example we can enter a string with 3 characters only.

Assigning a value :

Once the variable is assigned a data type, the value should be given to it.
To declare and assign one variable :
dim a as integer
a=100

or
dim a as integer = 100

To declare more than one variable :

dim a,b,c as integer
a=10
b=20
c=30

Class 8 - Date Function

Class 8 - Introduction

Visual Basic

Visual basic was derived from the language BASIC.

BASIC has its own limitations., it is a simple programming language but used only in a text based environment. But visual basic is

User friendly

Supports Graphical User Interface(GUI)VB

VB is an Event- driven programming, which means the flow of the program is determined by an Event.

An Event is an action performed either by mouse click, double click or pressing keys on the keyboard.

Integrated Development Environment describes the interface and the environment we use to create our own applications.

1. Form design window

2. Tool box

3. Menu bar

4. Project explorer

5. Properties window

6. Form layout

Project Explorer Window

It lists all the forms in the project. The components of the window are:

View code
View object
Toggle folders
Project name
Forms folder
form module

Properties Window

It displays the properties like font name, caption, background colour etc of the selected object on the form.

A form is saved with an extension .frm .
A project is saved with an extension .vbp .

To execute the visual basic program :

Click Run from Start option
Click start on the Toolbar
Press F5 key

Class 8 - Data Type in VB

A data type determines what type of values a variable can hold.
In numbers we have different types like 5(whole number), 6.9(decimal number).

The computer memory is made up of storage areas which will hold the values.

When we give a value to a variable, the computer will allocate space in the memory to hold the variable. The storage space will be different for different values, based on the type of value.

Data types :

Natural Numbers

byte
integer
long

Byte : Number ranges from 0 to 255.

Integer : Larger than byte. Ranges from -32,768 to 32,767

Long : It can hold more than integer. To store very large number.

Decimal Numbers

Single
Double

Single : To store decimal values. Less Precision.

Double : Large decimal numbers. Very precise values.

String :

It is also called alphanumeric (i.e) alphabets and numbers. It can be a word, group of words, numbers .

Boolean :

This value can be either true or false.

Variant :

It can represent any value.

Date :
It stores vales from 1/1/100 to 12/3/9999.

Class 8 - Operators

Ch : 5 Operators and Functions

In this chapter we are going to learn about the basic steps such as variable, data type, operator in writing a program.

1. Variable :

The value is going to change every time.

x=3 , here x is a variable.

Rules for naming a variable :

1. First character should be a letter.

2. Other characters may be letter,digit.

3. No special characters except underscore( _ ).

4. Maximum limit is 255 characters.

5. Keywords are not allowed.

Examples :

1. a - Valid variable

2. s1 - Valid variable

3. Computer_Science - Valid variable

Identify the valid and invalid variables :

1. _123 - Invalid variable(Should start with an alphabet)

2. Bond007 - Valid variable

3. Cotton Boys - Invalid variable(Special character space)

Class 7 - Introduction to HTML

HTML

HTML (Hyper Text MarkUp Language) is used to create web pages. The codes are called tags. The tags are given within < and >.

There are two types of tags ,

i. Container Tag : It has both opening and closing tags.
e.g : <html> </html>

ii. Empty Tag : It has only a opening tag.
e.g :

The basic structure of a HTML document is

<html>

<head>

<title>

</title>

</head>

<body>

………

……..

</body>

</html>

Whatever is typed between <title> and </title> will be displayed on the title bar not in the web page.

<html>

</head>

<body>
Your text goes here.

</body>

</html>

Example 1 :
<html>
<head><title> My Page BCBS</title>
</head>
<body>
Bishop Cotton Boys' School
</body>
</html>

The output will be :

The data entered between <body> and </body> only will be displayed in the web page.
Line break tag :
It moves the cursor to the next line.
Paragraph Tag :
It leaves a blank line.

Example 1 :
<html>
<head><title> My Page BCBS</title>
</head>
<body>
BCBS 
Thomas House 
Pope House 
Elphick House 
Pakenham Walsh House 
Pettigrew House
</body>
</html>

The output will be :
