<p>Hi Gordon,</p>
<p>Do ya reckon you could email me so we could meet and have a yak? I'd be interested to chat on the Soft Dev. subject as I am introducing it here next year.</p>
<p>Am interested to see how you do the subject there and if you have any tips or resources you may care to share.</p>
<p>Open offer...we are afterall in the same country town...</p>
<p> </p>
<p>email me at the addy below if interested in networking. Also, if you know of the other colleges/teachers round here doing SD(Dimmy, Murtoa, Warrack etc...) I'd be interested in perhaps starting a small network of us I.T teachers in this wimmera region...it
cant hurt!.</p>
<p>(hint...think of it as legit PD for the VIT rego process too!!!)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>cheers</p>
<p>Kent.</p>

<div>The correct response should be: 200,20,50,20,100,20 <br>
All values >= 500 get 90% discount. Only items with original cost > 1000 get free postage, hence all have $20 postage<br>
<br>
<div>Also, the indentation of the 2nd else statement is misleading.<br>
<br>
finally{ the algorithm above question 10 should read in the 3rd line:<br>
"While item < X and not Itemfound do " }<br>
<br>
But this is nitpicking really - it is a great resource and I know how difficult it is to write this style of question.<br>
<br>
cheers<br>

<div>OK. Given the data supplied, what would be the correct answer (which VITTA should then update to)?<br>

Without this assumption, none of the options are correct.<br>

<div>You are certainly correct about Q11, Gordon. The answer should be D. I reckon this is a typo (still a mistake, however) because the explanation is correct (a one dimentional array).<br>
<br>
What should be the correct response for Q18?<br>

<div>I've just had a run through the VITTASD2011 unit3 theory test - a great resource but with a couple of errors.<br>
<br>
Q11 should be D - This is the only unambiguously correct answer. It MAY also be C but you have to make assumptions about data type of telephone[]. (which are usually string in exams anyway!)<br>
<br>
Q18 None of the responses are correct....because of an (unintentional) error in the algorithm . I think the 90% should be a 10%???<br>
