<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Folks,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have been thinking about problem scenarios for the next outcome and I had a few ideas that may be useful either as a teaching activity or as the SAC itself.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph">1. 2D arrays – booking system for a theatre OR booking for aeroplane seats. These could be arranged to appear as a 2D array on the user screen with a green colour for available and red colour for booked. All seats could
be initialized to “0” to indicate free or available. If booked the cell could hold a comma delimited string holding details of the person to occupy the seat with a phone number perhaps.</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph">2. A queue could be a 2D array of customers ( or an array of objects each describing a customer ) awaiting roadside service with a variable to hold the head and the tail position of the queue. Alternatively, the queue could
hold customers waiting for service on the phone, or customers who have placed orders online for lunch orders at a canteen. Head and tail of the queue could progress based on people served or new arrivals.</p>
<p class="MsoListParagraph">3. A stack is possibly the least attractive for a practical problem. One could try to convert an infix expression to a postfix one, or evaluate a postfix expression using a stack. Fairly dry and unexciting I would expect.
Anyone for a non-recursive Towers of Hanoi problem ?<br>
<br>
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any other ideas ? It would be interesting to hear what colleagues have in mind or have used in the past.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Kind Regards</p>
