I have looked for this tool on the web and have not been able to find it.
Mark, do you have the URL where you downloaded it?

Hi Ross

In these days of being tied to the keyboard, no tool is adequate unless it
can be automated at the developer's desktop. Fortunately there is an
excellent NS tool that is even integrated with Word, allowing NS charts to
be treated as objects in a Word document. One simply types in the pseudo
code for the desired NS chart, and out comes a pleasantly constructed chart.
This tool is available from Kast Associates (bobk at legato.com).

 

(this is what I read in Mark Kelly's notes but havent tried it out yet)

 

Hope this helps, let me know if you find more on the above, 

Regards

Fatima

Hello Fatima,

I was wondering how you are going with SD and was considering that we are in
a similar boat, it might be valuable for our students .....and us if we
network via email.
Also please feel free to contact me by phone on the following numbers.

Hey Ross,
It is so crazy, specially because I am the only one teaching SD at my school
and no one to bounce off ideas with.

We are using Vb.net and Adrian's book is proving to be very useful for
programming - do you find that your boy students (i have only 1 girl in two
classes of boys) either want to play games or do coding, pushing in theory
is like putting them on a waxing table! they cringe so bad at theory. And no
one wants to read. I usually take a quiz every lesson (a short one) so that
they can recall and retain stuff.

I will be starting my SAC2 in wk8, I dont know if I am doing good time or
behind :)

Did you know that there is a software now which produces an NS for any
written algorithm! how cool is that!

Cheers
Fatima

Thats what I thought Fatima. I'm new to SD as well..........how are you
going?
Getting my head around SAC2 at the moment......have managed to get up to
speed with programming in VB for the software module.....just have to get my
head around testing tables, validation and N/S (Nazi) diagrams...(Don't
mention the war!!!!!!)
