  • 10.Graphical ObjectsIn Excel
  • 11.Graphical Objects Read Ex2.4 thru 2.13 in Book - Be prepared to discuss Inserting graphic embedded objects /pics etc in worksheets Modifying objects and pics etc A graphic is non text element or object such as a drawing, a callout, or picture. It can be added to an excel document. A graphic is treated as an object (so we commonly refer to it as a graphic object). There an many types of objects and all objects are not graphic. Excel can handle many types of objects such as: apps/videos/music/animations/ etc……. File extension including graphic file types are important part of using any graphic object (pic, gif, pcx, bmp, jpg, pdf, xlxs, docx, ) Embedded objects become part of excel worksheet /workbook but must be opened using the source program (the application program that was used to create the object).
  • 12.Data Marking and Data Use and Security Handling Data in a Professional Manner- as an IT Professional !
  • 13.Data Rights and Markings/ Privacy and Security Both an ethical and a technical issue Data and information security is major issue for computers, software, social media, and personal privacy advocates. Privacy Is built into our constitution. A keystone principle. A tough balancing act since the advent of computers and technology Storage, data, computers, bandwidth (the internet, satellites), cameras and software etc are all cheap. Big Data is a term used by industry to refer to the tera-bytes of data that exist and that is being generate continuously and on demand. Big Data – large databases, video, national collection systems, satellite and intel information sources, social media system applications such as facebook (one account where a large number of people can be searched)
  • 14.Data Rights and Markings/ Privacy and Security Software Copyrights and Data Marking Copyright is a form of protection granted by the laws of the United States for original works of authorship. includes: literary, dramatic, musical, architectural, cartographic, choreographic, pantomimic, pictorial, graphic, sculptural, and audiovisual creations. “Copyright” literally means the right to copy. Software is included and protected under US Copyright Laws. Classified in business world as “Intellectual Property” Copyright concept originated in England (18th century) For Software, Copyright laws applies to: Object code, source code listings, documentation. Software Object code (aka Micro-code)– The computer executable version of a computer program the runs on the computer . Sometimes referred to as machine language i.e. ( 1’s and 0’s ) digits. Software Source code – the computer program in human-readable form
  • 15.Preparing a computer program – All Element Affected by Copyrights Design Stage - purpose or goal , flow chart of key steps (expected inputs and the desired outputs), storage values and the calculations Complex computer programs are know as systems. The more complex the program the more complex the design stage. Coding stage – writing the code. Uses source code languages (simliar to English but uses Syntax for commands and a command library of words that will be recognized as commands) Compiling Stage – a translation of command and syntax of the program into machine language – 1’s and 0’s that the computer processor and memory can understand. The results of the translation into machine code are the object modules; Library used to archive and manage code etc Verification Phase – testing of program modules and overall testing for use/test under various conditions ( 1) nominal, 2) suboptimal conditions, and then 3) stress testing conditions, etc). Delivery Phase - Storage and Retrieval/ Release & Distribution DOUCUMENTATION INVOLVED IN ALL PHASES
  • 16.Typical Usage or License for Software End User License is what is typically signed or acknowledged Signed when you download and install new software License can vary (site, computer device, transferable, etc) Users of the software agree to use in the prescribed manner in the User License Agreement (legal agreement or contract ) or face legal or other remedies in court or by mediation, etc. “All Rights Reserved © 2013” is the standard copyright marking.
