QUESTION 2 SOLUTION:

“Open a File name (HCI-Notes) from D. drive and Update the second paragraph of page no. 20 in a file”.

Use a word processor to update a paragraph and note your actions, goals, sub-goals and operators.


Answers:

Imagine you have a document open and you are at some capricious position within it. You furthermore necessaries to make a decision which operator are accessible and what their pre-conditions are:


Operator
Preconditions/ actions
Result
Update paragraph
Cursor at edit of paragraph
Update paragraph
Move_to_ paragraph
Cursor anywhere in the document
Cursor moves in document to start of the next paragraph
Move_to_start
Cursor anywhere in the document
Cursor at start of the document

Goal:

Update second paragraph in document.

Looking at the operators an palpable one to make your mind up this aspiration is update paragraph which has the pre-condition ‘cursor at edit of paragraph’


We therefore have a new sub-goal: move to paragraph. The pre-condition is ‘cursor anywhere in document’ (which we can meet) cursor moves in document to start of the next paragraph .
We set up a new sub- goal, move to start, with pre-condition ‘cursor anywhere in document’ and result ‘cursor at start of document’. We can then apply move to paragraph and finally update paragraph.
