IT 241 (Week 2) - In Your Own Words CheckPoint
Analog vs. digital modulation
The differences between analog and digital can be described as the differences between interlaced and progressive scan on an LCD or plasma TV. I remembered purchasing my very first flat-screen, a generic-branded 42” plasma TV from an online outlet about 2 years ago that had 1080i (interlaced) scan and an HDMI input. I did not do an overwhelming amount of research on the technology at the time prior to purchasing the TV, because at $650 plus shipping, it seemed too good of a deal to pass up, especially for a plasma TV that also had 1080. After about 6-7 months later, the term “you get what you paid for” comes to mind. The screen had become gooey green for some reason and the majority of the time made the TV completely unwatchable. Although this story about my purchase has nothing to do with comparing the differences between interlaced or progressive scan, I did my homework afterwards to ensure that my next purchase would be 100% compatible with my video games that supported up to 1080p.
Basically, there are two ways to display video: interlaced scan or progressive scan. Interlaced scan can be found in standard television formats or in analog televisions (non-digital) and signals can be picked up using an old-fashioned “rabbit-ear” antenna. Interlace only displays half of a horizontal line at a single time to display a picture. Progressive scan, used in computer monitors and is becoming a standard format now in flat-screen televisions, displays the horizontal lines of a picture in a single frame.

Depending on how rapidly or steadily the trigger is pressed, this would affect the resistance impacting its

    In one of the week 3 discussion questions we discussed the algorithm that would be required to make a peanut butter sandwich. In this CheckPoint you will need to take that one step further and create a program design to make a peanut butter sandwiches. Below you will find a partial program design; you need to complete it by adding the pseudocode in the required areas. You need to add one repetition (loop) control structure and one decision control to complete the program design.

    Starting in the late 70s to the early 80s, several types of video production equipment- such as time base correctors (TBC) and digital video effects (DVE) units (two of the latter being the Ampex ADO, and the NEC DVE)- were introduced that operated by taking a standard analog video input and digitizing it internally. This made it easier to either correct or enhance the video signal, as in the case of a TBC, or to manipulate and add effects…

    Using principles in critical thinking when it comes to sexual decision is very important. I grew up in a house hold where my parents had only been with each other, and they have been together since they were 13 years of age. Growing up this is what I always went by. You have to use critical thinking when it comes to these types of decisions because you do not know want to make a choice that will haunt you for the rest of your life, you want to have a clear mind about it looking back and knowing you did not make a mistake. When I met my husband, there were a lot of things we talked about before we had sex, the history of our past, the precautions we were going to take and what would happen next. I want to know that if we were going to be getting intimate with each other I wanted it to last, because we was not married. Using critical thinking and these steps that people use may seems little ridiculous to a lot of people, but there are so many diseases, such as STDs and so many things that sex links to. I think that if you are using critical thinking then you will not make any type of mistake when it comes to sex. In these days and time they do not think about what they are doing and that is why so many young people have STD, AIDS and/or are pregnant. I believe that children should be raised to use their critical thinking when it comes to a life changing event, such as sex. It is something that could change your life completely, more then what anyone else thinks. You want to know that you are making the right decisions when you about thinking about having sex for the first time, or even having sex with a new…
