(Gender Neutrality) Write the steps of a manual procedure to process a text paragraph and replace gender-specific words with gender-neutral ones. Assuming you’ve been given a list of gender-specific words and their gender-neutral replacements (e.g., replace “wife” or “husband” with “spouse,” replace “man” or “woman” with “person,” replace “daughter” or “son” with “child,” and so on), explain the procedure you’d use to read through a paragraph of text and manually perform these replacements. How might your procedure generate a strange term like “woperchild” and how might you modify your procedure to avoid this possibility? In Chapter 3, you’ll learn that a more formal computing term for “procedure” is “algorithm,” and that an algorithm specifies the steps to be performed and the order in which to perform them.
(Scientific Research Methods) Refer back to Ouestion 1 and use it to answer the following:what is the suitable research methodology (Quantitative or Qualitative) for conducting this research,what kind of methods you might use ( survey, interview, experiment, focus group, ...). Your answermust be justified and convenience for the researcher.
(Calculating Weekly Pay) A company pays its employees as managers (who receive a fixedweekly salary), hourly workers (who receive a fixed hourly wage for up to the first 40 hours theywork and “time-and-a-half”—i.e., 1.5 times their hourly wage—for overtime hours worked), commission workers (who receive $250 plus 5.7% of their gross weekly sales), or pieceworkers (who receive a fixed amount of money for each of the items they produce—each pieceworker in thiscompany works on only one type of item). Write a program to compute the weekly pay for eachemployee. You do not know the number of employees in advance. Each type of employee has itsown pay code: Managers have paycode 1, hourly workers have code 2, commission workers havecode 3 and pieceworkers have code 4. Use a switch to compute each employee’s pay based on thatemployee’s paycode. Within the switch, prompt the user (i.e., the payroll clerk) to enter the appropriate facts your program needs to calculate each employee’s pay based on…
