  • Key Stage 3 Python | Selection | CSNewbs

    The fifth part of a quick guide to the basics of Python aimed at Key Stage 3 students. Learn about how selection works and how to use if statements. Python - #5 - Selection 1. Using if Statements Using if enables your program to make a choice . There are a few things you need to remember : if is lowercase - it should turn orange. You must use double equals == You need a colon : at the end of your if line. The line below your if line must be indented . Task 1 - Create a new Python program and save the file as 5-Selection.py Use the picture to help you ask what your favourite food is . Run the program and test it works. To indent a line press the tab key on your keyboard. Indentation is important as it tells Python what is within the if statement and what isn't. 2. Using elif elif stands for 'else if '. It is used to respond in a different way depending on the input. elif works exactly the same as an if line so if you make a mistake look up at task 1 to help you. Task 2 - Write an elif line that responds differently to your favourite food question from task 1. e.g. "Yum!" if someone enters "pasta". 3. Using else It is impractical to have hundreds of elif lines to respond to different inputs. else is used to respond to anything else that has been entered in a general way. The else line works a bit differently, so look carefully at the picture . Task 3 - Write an else line that responds to anything else the user enters for your favourite food question. 4. Multiple elifs Despite what you did in task 3, programs can be expanded with more than one elif line. Underneath your first elif line but before your else line, add at least two more elif sections that respond differently depending on what is entered. Use the elif line from the task 2 picture to help you. Task 4 - Read the description above and use task 2 to help you. Challenge Programs Use everything that you have learned on this page to help you create these programs... Challenge Task 1 - Spanish Translation Create a new Python program. Save it as ' 5-Translator.py ' Add a comment at the top with your name and the date. Create a program that asks for a number between 1 and 4. Use if and elif statements to see what the user has entered and print a statement that displays the chosen number in Spanish - use the image to help you understand. BONUS : Add an else line for any numbers higher than 4. When you run it, it could look something like this: Challenge Task 2 - Able to Vote Create a new Python program. Save it as ' 5-Vote.py ' Add a comment at the top with your name and the date. Create a program that asks for their age. Use an if statement to see if the age is more than 17 (use > instead of ==). If the age is over 17, then print "You are old enough to vote!" Use an else statement to print a different message for everyone else. When you run it, it could look something like this: Challenge Task 3 - Totals Create a new Python program. Save it as ' 5-Totals.py ' Add a comment at the top with your name and the date. Use an int input line to ask the user for number 1. Use an int input line to a sk the user for number 2. Multiply the two numbers together and save it into a variable called total. If the total is over 9000, then print "It's over 9,000!!!" Use an else statement to print the total if it is less than 9000. When you run it, it could look something like this: <<< #4 Calculations #6 Turtle >>>

  • 3.1 - Defensive Design - OCR GCSE (J277 Spec) | CSNewbs

    Learn about defensive design considerations including validation checks, verification, anticipating misuse, maintainable code, authentication and input sanitisation. Based on the J277 OCR GCSE Computer Science specification (first taught from 2020 onwards). 3.1: Defensive Design Exam Board: OCR Specification: J277 Watch on YouTube : Defensive Design Validation Checks Maintainability Defensive Design Considerations There are several things to consider when creating a program that is secure and robust , including: Anticipating Misuse Planning ahead to take steps against potential misuse (e.g the app X prevents the same tweet sent twice in a row as it might be spam ). Input Sanitisation Checking and cleaning up data that has been input , (e.g. removing special characters to prevent a SQL injection ). Validation Checking whether input data follows specific criteria and should be accepted (e.g. a length check on a password). Verification Checking whether data that has been entered is correct (e.g. double entry ). Authentication Ensuring only authorised users can gain access to a system (e.g. usernames and strong passwords ) . Maintainable code Allowing other programmers to easily read and quickly understand code that has been written (e.g. using comments , indentation and appropriate variable names ). Input Validation Validation is a process to check that data is reasonable or sensible before it is accepted . Range Check Checks data is within a certain range . Age: 34 203 Type Check Checks data is a certain data type . Height (in cm): 182 Two metres Format Check Checks data is entered in a certain way . Date of Birth (DD/MM/YYYY) 25/03/2011 25th March 11 Presence Check Checks that data has actually been entered and not left blank . Password: fluffythecat123 Lookup Table A table of acceptable entries , also known as a list . Length Check Checks the length of the input is within a certain amount. Telephone Number 08323877319 07383 Maintainability Programs should be written in a way that makes maintaining and understanding them as straightforward as possible. Examples of making a program maintainable include: Using subprograms to reuse code and make them easier to test . This is called modularisation . Appropriate variable names , using a naming convention , ensure the purpose of a variable is immediately understood. Using indentation to improve readability and clearly show each ‘block’ of code. Comments enable a programmer to understand the purpose of each line of code. Crucial when working in a team . Using constants is another method of improving maintainability. This keeps the program code consistent , which makes it easier to read and debug a program. Q uesto's Q uestions 3.1 - Defensive Design: 1. Describe the different considerations a programmer should make for a defensive design . [ 6 ] 2. Describe the each validation check and give a suitable example . [ 12 ] 3. Explain the different ways a program can be maintained . [ 5 ] 2.3 Additional Programming Theory Topics 3.2 - Testing

  • 2.3 - Software Development | OCR A-Level | CSNewbs

    Learn about software development methodologies such as the waterfall lifecycle, agile methodologies, extreme programming, the spiral model and rapid application development (RAD). Based on the OCR H446 Computer Science A-Level specification. Exam Board: OCR A-Level 2.3 - Software Development Specification: Computer Science H446 Watch on YouTube : Waterfall Lifecycle Extreme Programming Spiral Model Rapid Application Development Software development models are step-by-step methods for creating and maintaining software . They are used to keep projects organised , reduce mistakes and make sure the finished program meets the user’s needs . Different models suit different types of projects . Waterfall Lifecycle The waterfall model is a linear and structured approach where each phase is completed one at a time in order . It needs all requirements to be clearly defined at the start , with little to no changes allowed once a phase is finished . This model is best suited for projects with fixed requirements and minimal risk of change . Extreme Programming Extreme Programming ( XP ) is a type of agile methodology that uses an iterative and flexible approach, progressing in small , usable chunks called iterations (or sprints ). It relies on frequent collaboration with stakeholders and user feedback to adapt to changing requirements . This model is ideal for dynamic projects where quick delivery and frequent updates are important. Spiral Model The spiral model combines iterative development and risk management , progressing through repeated cycles of planning , risk assessment , engineering ( development and testing ) and evaluation . Each loop focuses on identifying and addressing risks early in the project. It is ideal for complex and high-risk projects where requirements may change over time . Rapid Application Development The rapid application development ( RAD ) model focuses on quickly building software through iterative development and frequent user feedback . It uses reusable components , time-boxing and constant feedback to speed up the delivery of an effective final product . RAD is best suited for projects that need to be completed quickly and where requirements can evolve during development . Q uesto's K ey T erms Software Development: waterfall lifecycle, agile methodology, extreme programming (XP), spiral model, rapid application development (RAD) D id Y ou K now?

  • 6.6 - Logical Protection | Unit 2 | OCR Cambridge Technicals | CSNewbs

    Learn about the methods of digital protection including antimalware, firewalls and obfuscation. Based on the 2016 OCR Cambridge Technicals Level 3 IT specification for Unit 2 (Global Information). 6.6 - Logical Protection Exam Board: OCR Specification: 2016 - Unit 2 Logical protection refers to using digital methods of security to protect computer systems and data. Usernames & Passwords ****** Anti-Malware Usernames must be matched with a secure password to minimise the chances of unauthorised users accessing a system. Passwords should contain a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters , punctuation and numbers . Passwords should be of a substantial length (at least 8 characters) and should be regularly changed . Anti-virus software scans a system and removes viruses . If left to infect a system a virus could delete data or permit access to unauthorised users . Anti-spyware software removes spyware on an infected system so hackers cannot view personal data or monitor users. Organisations should install and regularly update anti-virus and anti-spyware programs. Firewall Encryption Firewalls prevent unauthorised access to or from a network . Firewalls filter data packets and block anything that is identified as harmful to the computer system or network. Firewalls can also be used to block access to specific websites and programs. A firewall can be in the form of a physical device which is connected to the network, or software installed on a computer system. Encryption is the conversion of data ( plaintext ) into an unreadable format ( ciphertext ) so it cannot be understood if intercepted . Encrypted data can only be understood by an authorised system with a decryption key . There are two types of encryption . Encryption at rest is when data is encrypted while it is being stored on a system or storage drive. Encryption in transit is to secure the data as it being transferred between systems on a network. Tiered Levels of Access Obfuscation ?????? The purpose of tiered levels of access is to grant different types of permission to certain users. Managing levels of file access ensures that only authorised people can access and change certain files . There are different levels of file access : No access Read-only - Allows a user to view but not edit. Read/write - Allows a user to view and edit. Obfuscation is when data is deliberately changed to be unreadable to humans but still understandable by computers . Program code might be obfuscated to stop rival programmers from viewing and stealing it if they were able to access it. Specialist software can be used to obfuscate data and convert it back into a human-readable format. Q uesto's Q uestions 6.6 - Logical Protection: 1a.

  • 1.2 - Types of Processor | OCR A-Level | CSNewbs

    Learn about the differences between CISC and RISC processors, GPUs and multicore and parallel systems. Based on the OCR H446 Computer Science A-Level specification. Exam Board: OCR A-Level 1.2 - Types of Processor Specification: Computer Science H446 Watch on YouTube : CISC and RISC GPUs Multicore & parallel systems Instruction Sets An instruction set is the complete list of machine code instructions a CPU is designed to execute as part of the FDE cycle . CISC (Complex Instruction Set Computer ) CPUs have a large set of complex instructions , so tasks can be achieved in fewer lines of code , but some instructions take multiple clock cycles . RISC (Reduced Instruction Set Computer ) CPUs use a smaller set of simple instructions , each designed to execute in a single clock cycle , making execution faster but sometimes requiring more instructions overall . GPUs A GPU (Graphics Processing Unit ) is a co-processor with thousands of smaller cores designed for parallel processing . This is in contrast to the CPU , which has fewer but more powerful cores . GPUs are used for rendering images , animations and video for fast , realistic graphics in games and multimedia . Because of their ability to handle many calculations at once , GPUs are widely used for non-graphical purposes too, such as machine learning , scientific simulations , data analysis and cryptocurrency mining . Multicore & Parallel Systems A multicore processor has multiple independent cores on a single CPU chip . Each core can carry out its own FDE cycle , so tasks can be split up , enabling multitasking and faster processing . However, only software designed to use multiple cores will benefit from this increased performance . A parallel system uses multiple processors (or cores ) working together on the same problem at the same time . This may involve multiple cores within one CPU or multiple CPUs in a single machine . Parallel processing greatly improves performance for tasks that can be divided into smaller sub-tasks , such as simulations and graphics rendering . However, some problems cannot be parallelised because they must be executed sequentially .

Phishing Misleading individuals or organisations into giving up sensitive information (such as passwords or bank details), often through the use of emails . Hacking Exploiting weaknesses in a system or network to create, view, modify or delete files without permission. Similar to data theft - illegally removing copies of personal or company data from computer systems. :( Trojan Appears to be a useful or well-known program but when downloaded and installed it secretly gives the attacker a ' backdoor ' to your system. Through this backdoor the attacker can access data without the user knowing. Football 2020 FREE Interception Data packets on a network are intercepted by a third party (e.g. hacker) and copied, edited or transferred to a different location than the intended destination. Eavesdropping Intercepting , in real-time , private communication traffic such as instant messages or video calls . Social Engineering Tricking individuals into giving sensitive information , e.g. by claiming to be from the IT department and asking for their password and username to check for viruses.

  • OCR CTech IT | Unit 1 | 2.5 & 4.2 - Communication Methods | CSNewbs

    Learn about the different methods of communication using physical and digital ways of transferring data. Based on the 2016 OCR Cambridge Technicals Level 3 IT specification. 2.5 & 4.2: Communication Methods Exam Board: OCR Specification: 2016 - Unit 1 Sections 2.5 and 4.2 are very similar so both are mixed within this page. There are many ways that employees of a business can communicate between staff members or with their customers . Text-based Communication Letter ✓ It is a traditional method of communication that can be used for formal occasions such as job offers or resignations . ✓ It can be kept and stored for physical evidence - e.g. keeping an applicant's CV in case an opportunity arises in the future. X Requires postage costs to be sent in the mail (a first-class stamp is now £1.65 ). Overseas delivery is even more expensive . X Takes several days time to be received in the post and may be lost . X A letter can't include certain formats like video. Text Message (SMS) ✓ Can reach a large audience at once with one batch message . ✓ Good for short messages - e.g. appointment reminders or confirmation codes for two-factor authentication . ✓ Doesn't require an internet connection to receive messages. X Limited to short messages (160 characters ) with no multimedia . X Text messages can cost to send each message. SMS stands for Short Message Service . Email ✓ Easily send information to many people at once, instantly . ✓ Can include documents , multimedia attachments and links . ✓ Can send targeted emails to customers on a mailing list with new products or sales promotions . X Important messages may be lost in the spam folder. X Phishing scams can spread malware via email attachments. Instant Messaging ✓ Works in real-time - messages are sent and received instantly . ✓ Attachments and hyperlinks can be sent. ✓ Can be used by support staff to help customers in real-time. X Quick speed means it's less suitable for formal conversations like interviews. X Internet access issues will disrupt any conversations . Voice-based Communication Cellular ✓ Can hear how something is said , unlike text responses. ✓ Fastest method of communication - also allows reactive conversations that can quickly change based on previous responses. X Impacted by cellular reception - won't work in remote areas / underground. X Can't see the other person's body language, presentation or facial expressions. Teleconferences ✓ Allows for groups of people to communicate at once . ✓ Businesses can use teleconferencing to communicate between offices / individuals across the world . X The quality of the call may be affected by a group's poor reception . X Because a group is communicating, people may speak over each other , especially if there is a time delay . VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) ✓ Allows a user to make calls over the internet (e.g. using WhatsApp). ✓ Cheaper (can also be free) to make calls rather than using a cellular network . X Relies on a good-quality internet connection . X Can potentially be less secure than cellular connections. hi there Personal Assistants ✓ Speeds up processes by making appointments, checking information or connecting to smart devices. ✓ Voice-activated - can be used whilst otherwise busy , such as typing, cooking or driving. ✓ The language can be changed to suit people's preferences. X Huge privacy concerns as companies store audio data for voice recognition and track all commands made to the device. X There may be recognition issues as sometimes the assistant doesn't understand a command . Online Communication Video Conferences ✓ Users can connect to the call (e.g. using Zoom, Skype, or Google Meet) remotely , saving time and money instead of all travelling to one location. ✓ Can be used for interviews as it allows the applicant and the interviewers to see each other and look for body language . ✓ Users can share information visually , such as designs. X A high-bandwidth connection is required to send and receive video data reliably . X A poor internet connection (e.g. a weak WiFi signal ) will result in low-quality video that may stutter or drop out , making it hard to communicate clearly . Social Media ✓ Businesses can quickly share information with a large online audience , including new potential customers . ✓ Posts can be in d i fferent formats such as text, images, videos or links to other websites. ✓ Direct messages sent on social media may be seen and responded to faster than alternatives like using email if push notifications are enabled on a phone. ✓ Some social media sites like Facebook allow for private , invite-only groups to communicate with like-minded users in a secure way. X Businesses must be cautious about what they post so as not to accidentally offend others and damage their reputation . X Social media posts and customer comments must be carefully managed , so a social media manager should be hired. Blog / Vlog ✓ Share information with followers in text , images and video formats . ✓ Blogs and vlogs can unite people with similar interests , such as a cookery blog or travel vlog. ✓ Companies can use a blog to promote new products and provide details of upcoming events to try and attract new customers . X Takes a lot of effort and time to create posts, especially editing videos for vlogs. X Bad behaviour or language in vlogs can bring punishment. Several YouTubers have lost their reputations following videos they have posted. Q uesto's Q uestions 2.5 & 4.2 - Communication Methods: 1.
