Evaluation

To evaluate the website I would ask the client to send me a report in 2 to three months on there opinion of the website . I would give them certain or a rating system on which the respond would be given .  Also a user feed back implemented into the website would be a good addition as it would allow for customers feed back things like user friendliness and ease of access. Also a self evaluation would give things that I could improve upon next time.

Things to Change if the assignment was to be completed again . More organization was needed on my part as we did not finish the task on time . also we needed to communicate with the client better and more often as we often did not get the information we needed on time or at all. I needed to also have a working computer. Also the addition of more work out side if class would have added in finishing the project to a higher standard and within the time constraints .

I worked efficiently with my team we generally worked quite efficiently in class  and got the work done to the best if ability in the time we had . I would occasionally get distracted and poor password choice and lack of proof reading set us back some time .

Is project management a worthwhile to learn skill


Project Management is a very worthwhile skill to learn, it may not be directly involved in your line of work, but it will always help you no matter what you do. This is because knowledge of project management allows you to organised your tasks and what work you have to do in very an efficient way, this allows for optimal time management. Using charts and graphs, such as Gantt charts, you can see when work is due and how much time can be set aside for each task while also setting in time if the project goes overtime (slack time). This superior time management will allow for increased productivity in those that bother to use it. The downside is that if project management is not done right, for example spending too much time setting up the chart, in can hinder the overall task time. Project management skills also allow you to focus on other members of your team (if you have one) because you are already properly managed, this allows you to become an effective leader and potentially help you get a better position in your business. Overall project management is a very useful skill to learn and can allow you to further your line of work in a number of ways and allows you to stay organised and on top of your upcoming tasks.

Mortein

this is a post about debugging and how i achieved debugging through out my coding. tips for easy debugging: 1: always check error messages and ! marks on the side of the page, a lot of the time they will have the answer to your problem. 2: get a fresh set of eyes, often having a friend or workmate look at your code can fix your problems. 3: as a last ditch effort you can always start again fresh code can often work.

here is task number 3 revised and with the comments in the actual code.


var np = prompt("How many pizzas do you want?");
for (i = 1; i <= np; i++)
{var nt = prompt("how mant toppings on pizza " + " " + i + "?");
var cost = (np*7) + (nt * 0.6); }

//gets a value and then keeps on adding a defined ammount until it is told to stop

var p = prompt("HOW EXPENSIVE IS GLASS PER SQUARE METER??");
alert("length = " + l + " Width = " + w + " Price per meter = " + p + " total price = " + l*w*p)
//varibles work as a number that can be added to or changed to differnt things.
