5 Evaluation, Selection, and Destruction of Consignment Notes

The process of evaluation, selection, and destruction of the consignment note must be made prior to the migration to another medium. The healthcare world uses two different techniques: microfilming and digitization.

  • Microfilming: The support is microfilm.
  • Digitization: The supports are magnetic and optical discs.

Before making the change of support, the Health Care Center (HHCC) and having completed the weeding, should check that documents

Data Types and Basic Algorithms

1. Defining Data Types

Data types define the set of values a variable can hold and the set of operations that can be performed on that variable.

2. Primitive Data Types

Primitive data types can be divided into:

  • Numeric: Integer and Real
  • Alphanumeric: Character and String
  • Logical: True or False

3. Primitive Instructions

  • Input: Allows the user to provide data. Example: READ(NUM)
  • Assignment: Stores information in a variable. Example: X <- 5
  • Output: Displays information to the

Non-Deterministic Algorithms

A Non-Deterministic Algorithm is an algorithm that, when executed with the same input, may produce different outputs or follow different execution paths. This non-determinism can occur due to random choices, parallelism, or other factors that make the behavior unpredictable.

Key Features:

  • Multiple Outcomes: The algorithm may have different results even for identical inputs, based on random decisions or execution order.
  • Randomness: Often involves random choices or probabilistic

File Subsystem and Disk Access

The file subsystem is a part of the operating system responsible for ensuring each user has access to their files and programs and for ensuring the safety of these files by controlling access by other users.

  • Field: A set of interrelated characters. Types: numeric, alphanumeric, Boolean, etc.
  • Record: A set of fields relating to the same entity.
  • File: A set of interrelated records.
  • Database: Interrelated groups of files that are managed together.
  • Key: A set of one or more

Unit 2: Operating System Elements and Structure

2.1 Introduction to the OS

OS Definition: A set of programs, services, and functions that manage and coordinate the operation of hardware and software.

User Interaction: Through an Interface

  • Interface Types:
    • Text mode (Prompt)
    • Graphic Mode (Mouse, Touchscreen, Voice)

Types of OS (Based on Hardware and Software Management):

  • Single-User OS: Only one simultaneous user (e.g., XP, Vista, MS-DOS).
  • Multi-User OS: Multiple users can use software and hardware resources

Relational Operators in Visual Basic

Relational operators are used to compare values in Visual Basic. Here’s a breakdown of common operators:

  • = (Equals): The expression a = b evaluates to True if a is equal to b, and False otherwise.
  • > (Greater Than): The expression a > b evaluates to True if a is greater than b, and False otherwise.
  • < (Less Than): The expression a < b evaluates to True if a is less than b, and False otherwise.
  • >= (Greater Than or Equal To): The expression a >= b evaluates
