33. # 10
This is a simpler way to write the same solution. You are using a For loop within a While Loop. It NEARLY works but not quite. CHANGE TWO things so this works perfectly.
What it should do:
Enter a number: 6
******
*****
****
*** ** *
(produces a tower with the height
of the number you’ve entered)
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim heightoftower As Integer
Console.WriteLine("Enter Height of Tower Foundation (A Number)")
heightoftower = Console.ReadLine
Dim i As Integer
While heightoftower < 0
For i = 0 To heightoftower
Console.Write("*")
Next
Console.WriteLine()
heightoftower = heightoftower - 1
End While
Console.ReadLine()
End Sub
End Module

34. Screenshot your solution below

35. #11 Desired Outcome Module Module1 Sub Main()
INSTRUCTIONS
Copy the following code into VB.Net Console
Analyse it and then attempt the challenge
CHALLENGE:
What one thing do you need to change in the code to:
Make the code (when played) produce a square with the number of stars specified.
(SEE BELOW FOR DESIRED OUTCOME)
#11
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim heightoftower As Integer
Console.WriteLine("Enter Height of Square (A Number)")
heightoftower = Console.ReadLine
Dim i As Integer
Dim coloums As Integer
coloums = heightoftower - 1
While coloums > -1
For i = 0 To heightoftower - 1
Console.Write("*")
Next i
Console.WriteLine()
coloums = coloums + 1
End While
Console.ReadLine()
Main()
End Sub
End Module
Desired Outcome

36. Screenshot your solution below

37. # 12
Very Difficult
Add a Variable an add another loop (outside the existing For Loop) so that the tower faces the other way the ONE star should be at the top!
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim heightoftower As Integer
Console.WriteLine("Enter Height of Tower Foundation (A Number)")
heightoftower = Console.ReadLine
Dim i As Integer
While heightoftower < 0
For i = 0 To heightoftower
Console.Write("*")
Next
Console.WriteLine()
heightoftower = heightoftower - 1
End While
Console.ReadLine()
End Sub
End Module
What it should do:
Enter a number: 6 * **
***
****
*****
*******
This time
The Tower should
Be facing up!

38. Screenshot your solution below

39. Final If Finished, show teacher!
Very Difficult
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Console.WriteLine("Enter Username:")
Dim username As String
username = Console.ReadLine
Console.WriteLine("Now, Enter Password:")
'continue programming yourself now.....
Console.ReadLine()
End Sub
End Module
Write a Program (from scratch) using previous programs to help you know what to write (You can also use the internet for research) which 1.Asks the user for their username 2.Asks the user for their password 3. if the username = John and password = open123 then console.writeline (Access Granted) else, denied. ** Use a loop that only allows them to Try entering their details a max of 3 times.

48. HW Project #1
Create a poster (in Power Point or on paper) about the history of the Internet.
Answer the following questions
Use your networking knowledge to explain what the Internet really is.
What is the history of the Internet – how did it begin?
List some of the ways in which the Internet is used today!
Predict what would happen if the Internet suddenly disappeared in today’s world.

49. HW Project #2

50. HW Project #3
Create a poster about the top 5 Programming languages. (include Java, Vb.Net, and Python and research two others to add!). In your poster, find out about the advantages and
Disadvantages of each and write interesting facts about the languages – present this in an
Interesting way. You poster should also clearly show which language YOU think is best, and WHY!

51. HW Ongoing Sign up at www.codeacademy.com
2. Screenshot any badges or progress you have made on this slide

52. HW Extension Download Visual Studio (and VB.Net) at home – It’s Free
Visit the website and go through the VB.Net Tutorials.
Use as many slides as you can to screenshot the Form based outcomes you produce to show your progress and work.

53. The Ultimate
Partial
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim heightofsquare As Integer
Console.WriteLine("Enter Height of Square (A Number)")
heightofsquare = Console.ReadLine
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
For i = 0 To heightofsquare - 1
Console.Write("*")
Next
Console.WriteLine()
For i = 0 To heightofsquare - 3
For j = 0 To heightofsquare - 3
Console.Write(" ")
Console.ReadLine()
Main()
End Sub
End Module
The code on the left is a PARTIAL SOLUTION. It produces the output above, but doesn’t quite get the square to appear on the screen. What can you add to make it perfect?
