Hi everyone,

 

A couple of comments:

 

Section C, Q1.

I know that there are 'reasons' why the Bakers have been included as an
entity (which I don't agree with - BTW).  However, in talking to my
students, this has created some confusion regarding what the missing entity
should be.  Many of my students felt that 'Customers' would have been the
correct answer under other circumstances, however, as 'Drivers' were also
described in the case study as providing data to the system (in a similar
way to the Bakers), they felt that 'Drivers' was correct.  What do others
think about this?

 

Q3b.

Using the 2D array was a good inclusion which I applaud, however, the
question is incorrect - and has the indexes the wrong way around!  Kayla has
decided to test 1 bread product and 3 ingredients - but in the test data the
array indexes are (1,1), (2,1) and (3,1) - instead of (1,1), (1,2) and
(1,3).

 

 

Cheers,

Adrian
