2. How will you go about solving the following problem: split a list of people's names into 3 groups of approx. equal size, without using arrays - you can read one person’s name at a time & output the group # for each person. After discussing the high level approach in the forum, feel free to code it in VB and share it as well.





3. Write pseudocode and code to find the peak traffic hour (i.e. the hour with the most # of calls), based on the hourly traffic data, i.e. # of calls processed in each hour of a specific day by a telephone switch. Do not use arrays







4. There are two popular ways of writing pseudocode: one with explicit end statements and one without them (rely on indentation instead) . Here are the equivalent samples:



 



IF input file could be opened



initialize count to 0



WHILE a valid record is read



process the record



increment the count



ENDWHILE



ELSE



output file could not be opened



ENDIF



 



 



IF input file could be opened



initialize count to 0



WHILE a valid record is read



process the record



increment the count



ELSE



output file could not be opened
