Introduction to Video Game Programming (VGP) Mr. Shultz
Today’s Bell-Ringer and Objectives Bell-Ringer • What is your HCS computer login username? • How many bytes are there in a Gigabyte? • How many Gigabytes are there in a Terabyte? Objectives • Given the FBLA web site, TSW correctly identify the purposes and goals of the student organization with no errors. (BUS6640.030)
Bell-Ringer What is your HCS computer login username? first letter of first name last name three numbers (usually 001) Example: sshultz001
Bell-Ringer How many bytes are there in a Gigabyte? 1,000,000,000 One Billion
Bell-Ringer How many Gigabytes are there in a Terabyte? 1,000 Gigabyte = One Billion Terabyte = One Trillion
Today • Take VGP Pre-Test Part 2 • 5 minute limit • Computer Math Worksheet • Complete Algorithm Lesson • Complete “About FBLA” worksheet
VGP Pre-Test Part 2 Alternate sitting at tables and computers Do NOT write on instruction sheet Use provided notebook paper 5 minute limit NO TALKING
VGP Pre-Test Part 2 People sitting at computers move back to tables Everyone hold up your paper Who got it right? Why did some get it wrong?
Computer Math Prefixes: K = kilo = 1,000 (thousand) M = mega = 1,000,000 (million) G = giga = 1,000,000,000 (billion) T = tera = 1,000,000,000,000 (trillion)
Computer Math CPU Speeds Measured in Hz (hertz) Means cycles per second The more cycles it can process, the faster it can run
Computer Math 1a. If a CPU is rated at 500 MHz, how many cycles can it process in a second? 500 times M (1,000,000) = 500,000,000 (500 million)
Computer Math 1b. If a CPU is rated at 1 GHz, how many cycles can it process in a second? 1 times G (1,000,000,000) = 1,000,000,000 (1 billion)
Computer Math 1c. If a CPU is rated at 950 MHz, how many cycles can it process in a second? 950 times M (1,000,000) = 950,000,000 (950 million)
Computer Math 1d. If a CPU is rated at 1.1 GHz, how many cycles can it process in a second? 1.1 times G (1,000,000,000) = 1,100,000,000 (1.1 billion)
Computer Math 1e. Which CPU is faster, one rated at 1.1 GHz, or one rated at 950 MHz? 1.1 GHz = 1,100,000,000 950 MHz = 950,000,000
Computer Math Hard Drive Capacity Measured in B (bytes) Means pieces of data More bytes on the hard drive = more data you can store
Computer Math 2a. If a hard drive holds 200 GB, how many pieces of data can it store? 200 times G (1,000,000,000) = 200,000,000,000 (200 billion)
Computer Math 2b. If a hard drive holds 1TB, how many pieces of data can it store? 1 times T (1,000,000,000,000) = 1,000,000,000,000 (1 trillion)
Computer Math 2c. If a hard drive holds 750 GB, how many pieces of data can it store? 750 times G (1,000,000,000) = 750,000,000,000 (750 billion)
Computer Math 2d. You need to have a total of 1TB of storage, and you already have a hard drive that holds 750GB. What is the smallest hard drive you can add and have 1TB of storage? 1TB (1,000,000,000,000) minus 750GB (750,000,000,000) = 250GB (250,000,000,000)
