Week 1
Lesson 1 Solutions
Activity 1.1.1
 What is a computer network?
A computer network is a group of computers (and other hardware) linked

together to provide access to shared resources.
Activity 1.1.3
 Write a list of the activities computer networks make possible:
For example:
Sharing hardware (for example printers)
Sharing data

Lesson 2 Solutions
Activity 1.2.1
Lists and for loops revisited.
 The command stores the country names in a data structure called a list. A list
stores things at index locations within the list.
 To display all the values:

print(countries)
 To display just ‘China’:

print(countries[3])
 To display just ‘Japan’:

print(countries[0])
 To address the third item in the list?

print(countries[2])
 The command in the ‘for’ loop is repeated for each item in the list. Each time
through the loop, the variable ‘name’ is assigned the next value in the list.
The program prints out the name of each item in the list a line at a time.
 The program uses list comprehension, which is a short way of creating a list
where all the elements contain the same value. This program creates a list
with ten elements all filled with the number 43.
 A program that creates a list with each element initialised to 0:

length=10
myList= [0 for number in range(length)]
print(myList)

Activity 1.2.3
 The program creates and displays a two-dimensional array with each element
set to zero (0). The array consists of four ‘rows’, each made up of six
‘columns’:
[[0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]]
 Every element in the array is set to 86.
 A different size of array has been created with nine rows with five columns in
each row. All the elements of the array are set to zero.
[[0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0,

0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]]
 Values have been assigned to array elements, as follows:
[[0, 0, 0, 0, 99], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 74, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0,
0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0]]
It can be visualised like this table of rows and columns
0 0 0 0 99
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 74 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0

 A ‘for’ loop is used to iterate over the number of rows and each row listed in
the array is printed out.
Activity 1.2.4
How to use two-dimensional arrays in Python (nested lists which start from zero)
Task Example
How to initialise a two-dimensional numbRows = 4

array numbCols = 6
myArray=[[0 for column in
range(numbCols)] for row in
range(numbRows)]
print(myArray)
How to address an array element [row][column]
How to assign values in a two- myArray[0][4] = 99

dimensional array myArray[2][3] = 74
How to print a two-dimensional # print out a row at a time

array for row in range(rowLength):
print(myArray[row])
Activity 1.2.5
A program that creates a 10 x 10 grid and populates it with the result of

multiplying each number in the first row (1 – 10) with each number in the
first column (1 – 10).
# create a 10 x 10 table
# set up the 2 dimensional lists and initialise with 0
myList= [[ 0 for column in range(10) ] for row in range(10) ]
# use nested loop from 1 to 10

for row in range(1,11):
for column in range(1,11):
myList[row-1][column-1]=row*column
# print out a row at a time
print(myList[row-1])

Activity 1.2.6
‘One’ player Battleships game program:
Simple implementation
import random
# One player battleships

# set up the 2 dimensional list and initialise with 0
board= [[ 0 for i in range(10) ] for j in range(10) ]
# use nested loop from 1 to 10 to set location of ships

for row in range(10):
for column in range(10):
board[row][column]=random.randint(0,1)
# uncomment to display board for testing purposes

#for row in range(10):
# print(board[row])
# give player 10 chances to guess where a battleship is

# if battleship found then increase score by 1
score = 0
for attempt in range (11):
print("Attempt: ",attempt)
#get co-ordinates from player
x = int(input("Enter X co-ordinate of your guess. "))
y = int(input("Enter Y co-ordinate of your guess. "))
#check co-ordinates
if board[x][y] == 1:
print("Direct hit!")
score += 1 #increase score by 1
board[x][y] = 0 #stop player hitting same place again!
else:
print("Missed!")
# display score
print("You scored ",score, "hits!")

Week 2
Lesson 1 Solutions
Activity 2.1.1
 An explanation of the client-server model.
A server waits for requests from clients.
A client makes a request from the server. The server then fulfils the request.
 An explanation of the peer-to-peer model.
A peer-to-peer system doesn’t have any servers (as in computers that just
provide services).
Any computer in a peer-to-peer system can act as a ‘server’ that supplies a

file or resource but this computer is also a client and can request files from
any other computer within the system.

Lesson 2 Solutions
Activity 3.2.1
My name is George Wales and I am 0

The parameter values ‘George’, ‘Wales’ and ‘0’ are passed to the function and
override the default values.
My name is Amelia Jones and I am 21

The parameter values ‘Amelia’ and ‘Jones’ are passed to the function and
override the first two default values. The default value ‘21’ is printed.
My name is Vicky Bloggs and I am 21

The parameter value ‘Vicky’ is passed to the function and overrides the first
default value. The default values for {1} and {2} are printed.
My name is Fred Bloggs and I am 21

The default parameter values are printed.
Activity 3.2.3
Example:
def name_age(Name, Age):

print(Name, " is ", Age, " years old")
Activity 3.2.4

def square(side):
area = side * side
print("The square has an area of",area,"cm squared")

Activity 3.2.5
Example:
def numbers(start, end):

for count in range(start,end + 1):
print(count)
Activity 3.2.6
 Appropriate comments added to the program.
 Colour coding used:
programming constructs (black text, pink highlight)

subprograms (black text, yellow highlight)
return statement (red text, yellow highlight)
parameters (green text, yellow highlight)
arguments (white text, pink highlight)
Program with colour coding outlined above:
# outputs a number:
def display(number, answer, type):
print("This number {0} has been {2} the answer is
{1}".format(number, answer, type))
# squares a number
def square(number):
answer = number * number
return(answer)
# main program
amount = int (input("Please enter number : "))
for next in range(1,amount):
ans = square(next)
display(next, ans, "squared")
 .The function square returns a value so this is assigned to a variable. The

variable can then be used by the function display to display that value along
with the for next control value and some meaningful text.

 Amended program:
# outputs a number
def display(number, answer, type, answer2, type2):
print("This number {0} {2} is {1} and {4} is
{3}".format(number,answer,type,answer2,type2))
# squares a number
def square(number):
answer = number * number
return(answer)
def cube(number):
answer = number * number * number
return(answer)
# main program
amount = int (input("Please enter number : "))
for next in range(1, amount):
ans = square(next)
ansCube = cube(next)
display(next,ans,"squared",ansCube,"cubed")
Activity 3.2.7
Advantages of subprograms:
 code is easier to test thoroughly
 code can be reused
 code is easier to read
 code is easier to maintain
 program is easier to understand, reducing the chance or errors.

Week 4
Lesson 1 Solutions
Activity 4.1.1
Bus Ring
Advantages Advantages
 Relatively inexpensive to install  Better performance under heavy load

 Can add additional computers/other (large number of computers and/or
network hardware easily lots of traffic) than a bus network
 Requires less cable so costs are
reduced.
Disadvantages Disadvantages
 Performance(Speed of data transfer)  Damage to cable is likely to mean

gets worse with more whole network fails
computers/traffic
 All data is sent to all
computers/network hardware – poor
security
 signal degradation / more collisions

Activity 4.1.1 continued
Star Mesh
Example of a full connected mesh network
Advantages Advantages
 If 1 cable breaks then that device fails  Fault-tolerant – failure of links

but the rest of the network still runs shouldn’t impact much as data can be
 With a Switch, data is sent out to sent via other links
recipients only; therefore better in  High performance
terms of security and performance
Disadvantages Disadvantages
 More expensive to install – hub/switch  Expensive to install

 More cabling  Difficult to manage due to number of
connections

Lesson 2 Solutions
Activity 4.2.1
Local and global variables
 This is what happens when the program is run:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>
print(variableTwo)
NameError: name 'variableTwo' is not defined
The global variable variableOne is available outside of the function, as it has

been assigned as a global variable, but variableTwo is not available outside of
the function, as it is a local variable.
Activity 4.2.2
 This is what happens:
>>>print(number1)
print(number1)
NameError: name 'number1' is not defined
>>>print(number2)
print(number2)
NameError: name 'number2' is not defined
>>>print(answer)
21.666666666666668
This shows that only the variable answer is known outside of the function. It is
the only global variable. The other two variables (number1 and number2) are
local within the function and their values are only known within the function.

 What is a protocol and why are protocols needed?
A protocol is a set of rules that specify the format of communications. They

are needed to standardise communications so that various devices can
interoperate successfully.
Activity 7.1.3
 What is a protocol suite?
A protocol suite is a group of network protocols that can be used together. It

is often organised in layers, where one protocol passes its data to the next
before being sent across a communications system. TCP/IP is probably the
most well-known suite.

Activity 7.1.4

Activity 7.1.5
 What is a network packet?
Data sent across a network can be broken up into packets. A packet will
contain a small amount of data and a packet header. The header will contain
details such as the sending address, recipient’s address, packet number etc.
Actual contents depend on the protocol and version of the protocol.
