In this hardware contest, you will be presented with two computers at a time (desktops or laptops). Your task is to compare the technical specifications of both computers and discuss and justify which computer seems to have the highest specifications.…
LMC simulators are based on the Little Man Computer (LMC) model of a computer, created by Dr. Stuart Madnick in 1965. The LMC simulator is generally used to for educational purposes, because it models a simple Von Neumann architecture computer…
The aim of this challenge is to write a computer program that will take two whole numbers (integers) as input and output the result of multiplying these two numbers together. However, to make this task more challenging, you have to…
A school teacher is organising a school trip for the whole year group. He expects between 250 and 350 students to attend this trip. To estimate the cost of the trip, the school teacher has contacted a coach company to…
Every day asteroids are passing close to planet Earth. Their trajectory is closely monitored by NASA as some of these could potentially pose a threat to our planet. In this python challenge we are going to use the NeoWs API…
International maritime signal flags are various flags used to communicate with ships. The purpose of the International Code of Signals is to provide ways and means of communication in situations related essentially to safety of navigation. The code uses a…
