Assignment 1B

Problem 2: Decide if a Courtenay landing is safe

Solution in English: 

• Calculate leaveTime plus tripLength. Store it in a variable called ‘earliestLandingTime’
• Find out what ‘windSpeed’ is happening at ‘earliestLandingTime’
• Is ‘windSpeeed’ less than or greater than 12knots?

• If ‘windSpeed’ is less than 12knots Mary can land at Courtenay
• If ‘windSpeed’ is equal to or greater than 12knots Mary must contact the Marshall 

Problem 3: Find an alternate landing time/location

Solution in English:

• Calculate the ‘newLandingTime’ by adding the time delayed to the previous ‘earliestLandingTime’
• Find out the new available landing times. Store it in a variable called ‘newAvailableTimes’ 
• Compare newLandingTime to each newAvailableTime 
• If newAvailableTime is earlier than newLandingTime, move to the next newAvailableTime 
• If newAvailableTime is equal to or later than newLandingTime, book this time  
• If there are no newLandingTime’s available – Mary must land at Smits

Problem 4: Book a dinner reservation 

• Determine if Mary & Loiuse are landing at Smits or at Courtenay
• If they are landing at Smits add 45 minutes to the newLandingTime to determine the reservationTime
• Then Loiuse must contact the Marshall for the loaner car
• If they are landing at Courtenay, they must add 20 minutes to the newLandingTime to determine the reservationTime
• Then Loiuse must call a taxi
