Week002 Lab1 ProblemSolvingThroughFlowcharts Edited

This document provides instructions for a laboratory exercise on drafting flowcharts and pseudocode. Students are given 4 problems to solve involving daily activities and are tasked with creating a logical interpretation of each problem using flowcharts and pseudocode. The problems include tasks like caring for a baby, determining which of 5 cubes weighs more, planning for a beach trip, and concluding what was learned. Students are provided guidelines for completing the activity, labeling their work, and submitting their files.

LABORATORY EXERCISE

In this activity, you will be given a series of problems surrounding people’s daily activities. You are to
create your interpretation of the problem using flowcharts and pseudocodes. Make your interpretation as
logical and systematic as possible.

Objective/s:
At the end of this activity, the students are expected to be able to:
 discuss the implications of the given problems
 create flowcharts following a logical interpretation of the given problems
 write pseudocodes equivalent to your flowchart interpretation

Material/s Needed:
 10 Short bond papers, or more
 Drafting Pen

Procedure:
1. On the top left portion of each paper, write down the following:
Laboratory Exercise 0<XX>
<Last Name>, <First Name> | “I can do this!”
<Date>
2. On the first page of each question, write down your understanding of the problem. Include in here
some speculations and assumptions that you will use for your flowchart and pseudocode.
3. On the second page of each question onwards, draw your draft of the corresponding flowchart. Be
sure to adhere to our set of guidelines as discussed in Module002.
4. If needed, you may use additional papers for your flowchart.
5. On a new paper following your flowchart, write its equivalent using pseudocodes.
6. Keep your written answers secured until you complete the course. Should they be requested,
present them accordingly. Should you fail to do so, you will automatically receive zero (0) mark.

Questions:
1. You are left in charge of taking care of your baby brother. Your mother asked you to prepare the
milk by 9:00 AM. Your father asked you to cook lunch by 11:00 AM. You need bathe your brother
by 3:00 PM. Lastly, at 5:00 PM, you have your scheduled game with your team. Remember that
each activity is time-specific. For the time outside the specified hours, you are to do nothing but
wait.
2. You were given five cubes and you were tasked by your Physics course instructor to determine the
one cube that weighs greater than the rest. Four of the cubes have the same weight. You are only

given to chances to weigh a set of cubes. After the second weigh, you need to accurately discern
the one cube that weighs more.
[Hint]
o To weigh the five cubes only up to two times to determine which one weighs more, you will
need to weigh for the 1st round four cubes by twos and leave one cube aside.
o If the two parts of weighed cubes are equal, then the cube we need to determine is the fifth
cube – the one we set aside.
o If not, then one of the four cubes we weighed is the one we need. To do this, we will
disregard the pair that weighs lesser and focus on the pair that weighs more. We will weigh
that pair for our 2nd round, and the cube that weighs more than the other is the cube that
we need.
3. You are to travel to Palawan for a beach escapade. Since you are going, you need a set of materials
for the trip. List down all the items you need, create a checklist beforehand, determine whether
you already have each of the items, and buy the items you do not yet have. Indicate at least 5
items.
4. What can you conclude from this activity?
