Coursework 1 (Test) - Debrief• Range of marks normal

• Failure rate quite high – 30% (3 / 10)– not unusual for this module– recoverable if corrective action is taken

• Please feel free to discuss marks in tutorial

Coursework 1 (Test) - Problems• Answer question:

– Name a variable: Dim x x

• Conditional expressions: x > 4– used in conditional statements:

If picMain.height < 0 Then

• Parameters – data given to functions: x = Int(34.56) + 34.56 + sqr(b)

Session Aims & Objectives• Aims

– To introduce the main concepts involved in getting the machine to perform repetitive tasks.

• Objectives,by end of this week’s sessions, you should be able to:

– To be able to implement code that does repetitive tasks, using looping structures:

• known limits (for loop)• unknown limits (do loop)

Example: Hello v0

<html> <head><title>Hello</title></head> <body> <input id=btnHello type=button value=Hello /> <p id=lblHello></p> </body></html>

<script language=vbscript>Option Explicit Sub btnHello_OnClick() lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" End Sub</script>

• 1 user click: 1 Hello (1 line of code)

Page 7: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 7

Example: Hello v1

<script language=vbscript>Option Explicit

Sub btnHello_OnClick() lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" End Sub</script>

• 1 user click: 10 Hellos (10 lines of code)Lots of lines

imagine 300 Hellos

Page 8: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 8

Example: Hello v2

<script language=vbscript>Option Explicit

Sub btnHello_OnClick() Dim h For h = 1 to 10 lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" Next End Sub</script>

• 1 user click: 10 Hellos (4 lines of code)

Page 9: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 9

For ... Next statement• repeat code known number of times

– reduces length of code

– easier to change

• Syntax:

For variable = start To end statementblock Next

Page 10: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 10

Advantages• Less code:

• This makes program:– Easier to read– Easier to change (imagine 500 Hellos)

Option Explicit

Sub btnGo_OnClick()Dim h For h = 1 To 10 lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>" NextEnd Sub

Option Explicit

Sub btnGo_OnClick()lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"lblHello.innerHTML = lblHello.innerHTML & "Hello<br>"End Sub

Hello v1 Hello v2

• Real Power of loops– using counter variable

– do something slightly different each time

• Example: Dim numDim tottot = 0For num = 1 To 5 tot = tot + numNextlblRes.InnerText = tot

Example: Total

Page 12: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 12

Example: Total

Page 13: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 13

Question: For … Next• What does the following code produce:

Dim counter For counter = 1 To 10 lblNums.InnerText = lblNums.InnerText & counter Next

• What does the following code produce:Dim i For i = 24 To 8 Step -2 lblNums.InnerText = lblNums.InnerText & i & i * 2 Next

Page 14: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 14

Example: Letter Count <script language=vbscript> Option Explicit

Sub btnCount_OnClick() Dim pos Dim count Dim char count = 0 For pos = 1 To Len(txtWords.value) char = Mid(txtWords.value, pos, 1) If char = "e" Then count = count + 1 End If Next lblCount.innerText = count End Sub</script>

Page 15: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 15

Example: Shades<script language="vbscript">Option Explicit

Sub btnShow_OnClick() Const stTag = "<span style=""background: #" Dim h, p, msg, red msg = txtMsg.value h = "" red = 255 For p = 1 To Len(msg) h = h + stTag + Hex(red) + "0000"">" h = h + Mid(msg, p, 1) h = h + "</span>" red = red - 5 Next divTones.innerHTML = h End Sub</script>

Page 16: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 16

Do ... Loop statement

• repeat code unknown number of times– more flexible than For

– slower than For

• Syntax:Do [{While|Until} condition] [statementblock]Loop

Page 17: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 17

Example: Do … Loop• Can do everything a For … Loop can:

Dim I Dim ii = 1Do While i <= 10 For i = 1 To 10 lblN.InnerText = i picN.InnerText =

i i = i + 1Loop Next

• And more:Dim ii = 1Do While i < 10 lblN.innertext = i If (i / 2) = Int(i / 2) then i = i + 1 Else i = i + 3 End If Loop

Page 18: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 18

Question: Do … Loop• What does the following produce:Dim num num = 20 Do While num > -12 lblDo.InnerText = lblDo.InnerText & num num = num - 1.5 Loop

• What does the following produce:Dim num num = 6 Do Until num > 4 num = num + 5 lblDo.InnerText = lblDo.InnerText & num Loop

Tutorial Exercise: Hello• Task 1: Get the Hello Example (from the

lecture) working.

• Task 2: Modify your page so that it uses a variable to temporarily build to html.

• Task 3: Modify your page so that the user can control how many 'Hellos' appear.

Tutorial Exercise: Letter Count• Task 1: Get the Letter Count Example (from

the lecture) working.• Task 2: Modify your Letter Count page, so

that the user can control which letter is counted.Hint: You will need a text box for the user to type a letter into.

• Task 3: Modify your Letter Count program, so that the user cannot type more than one letter in the letter text box.Hint: Use the text box’s change event, and the len function.

Tutorial Exercise: Vowel Count• Task 1: Create a new page that counts the

number of vowels (a, e, i, o, u) in a piece of text. Hint: similar to the letter count example.

Page 22: 07 – Iterative Execution

Mark Dixon, SoCCE SOFT 131 Page 22

Tutorial Exercise: Shades• Task 1: Get the shades example from the

lecture working.

• Task 2: Modify the page so that it puts a space in between each letter.

• Task 3: Change the program so that it uses shades of another colour instead.

• Task 4: Create a new page that selects random shades of your selected colour. Hint: use the Rnd function.

Tutorial Exercise: Chess Board• Task 1: Use one for loop inside another to

create a chess board.
