2D array
Assignment
1
5 A firm employs workers who assemble amplifiers. Each member of staff works an agreed number
of hours each day.
The firm records the number of completed amplifiers made by each employee each day.
Management monitor the performance of all its workers.
Production data was collected for 3 workers over 4 days.
Daily hours
worked Production data
Worker 1 5 Worker 1 Worker 2 Worker 3
Worker 2 10 Day 1 10 20 9
Worker 3 10 Day 2 11 16 11
Day 3 10 24 13
Day 4 14 20 17
A program is to be written to process the production data.
(a) The production data is to be stored in a 2-dimensional array ProductionData, declared as
follows:
(i) Write code to declare the array ProductionData
............................................................................................................................ ............
[2]
...........................................................................................................................................
Describe two features of an array.
1 ........................................................................................................................................
...........................................................................................................................................
2 ........................................................................................................................................
.......................................................................................................................................[2]
(ii) Give the value of ProductionData[3, 2].
.......................................................................................................................................[1]
(iii) Describe the information produced by the expression:
ProductionData[2, 1] + ProductionData[2, 2] + ProductionData[2, 3]

(b) Complete the trace table for the pseudocode algorithm below.
FOR WorkerNum 1 TO 3
WorkerTotal[WorkerNum] 0
ENDFOR
FOR WorkerNum 1 TO 3
FOR DayNum 1 TO 4
WorkerTotal[WorkerNum] WorkerTotal[WorkerNum] +
ProductionData[DayNum, WorkerNum]
ENDFOR
ENDFOR
FOR WorkerNum 1 TO 3
WorkerAverage WorkerTotal[WorkerNum]/
(4 * DailyHoursWorked[WorkerNum])
IF WorkerAverage < 2
THEN
OUTPUT “Investigate“, WorkerNum
ENDIF
ENDFOR
WorkerTotal
WorkerNum DayNum WorkerAverage OUTPUT 1 2 3
