Project 5

The first circle is the coding for the speed of the sliding block. If the speed is
greater than zero, the sliding block will be slowly stopped until it reaches zero.
This coding allows the block to have a gliding affect. The second circle is the
scoring mechanic of the game. When the start is pressed, the score will reset
to zero, and when the player has received more than 27 points, the player
wins the game.

1. Is Wikipedia considered Web 1.0 or Web 2.0? Explain. Wikipedia is considered Web 2.0 because users are able to contribute information and change information. 2. Should a researcher place absolute trust in a search engine? Why or why not? A researcher should not place absolute trust in a search engine because a search engine does not show its best information. Search engines display data that they want you to see. 3. "The architecture of human knowledge has changed as a result of search . " What does this claim mean? The structure of our knowledge depends on what we search up and what information is displayed after the search. As technology advances, the internet is increasingly more necessary to look up information. The information displayed affects our knowledge. 4. When you type a word or phrase into the Google search engine, what is the search algorithm that is being used? Does Google’s search engine search the web? Explain. Google uses an algor...

1. What is a  bit  and what does it mean to say that "it's all just bits"? (Koan A bit is what data is made up of. What Koan means by “it’s all bits” is that everything that is data is made in bits. From pictures to applications, it uses bits to process the image or information 2. Describe, in your own words, Moore's Law. Moore’s Law is the observation of the growth rate of bit storage. Moors observed an exponential growth every few years. 3. Someone offers you a summer job and offers you two pay rates: (1) $10 per hour for 40 hours per week for 30 days or (2) One cent on day 1, two cents and day two, four cents on day three and on (doubling each day) for 30 days. If you were trying to make as much money as possible in 30 days, which pay rate would you choose? What does this illustrate? Offer 2 would generate me more money due to its exponential rate of doubling the previous day’s amount. This illustrates the exponential growth of information. 4. ...

1. What is encryption? Encryption is the process of encoding a message with a secret key so that it can not be deciphered by anyone else except the one receiving the message. 2. What is cryptography? Provide an example. Cryptography is when the sender and receiver are the only ones that can understand the message. An example of cryptography is morse code. Only those who knows morse code will be able to understand. 3. What is security through obscurity and why is it bad? Security through obscurity is the practice of creating encryption and keeping the code private. The idea is bad because if the encryption is found out, the secret information is not safe. 4. What is the key agreement protocol and why is it so important to Internet commerce? The key agreement protocol is a system in which two different parties can create a key together without an eavesdropper figuring out the key.  This is important because without being able to share your key with the other pe...
