ProgrammingRe: Computer Science/programming Challenging Questions by airsaylongcon(op): 10:17pm On Mar 01, 2016
A flip flop has two inputs A,B and operates as follows

INPUT---Current State-----Next State
A B
0 0 -------> C -------------> 1
0 1 -------> C -------------> C'
1 0 -------> C -------------> C
1 1 -------> C -------------> 0

Which of the following expresses the next state in terms of the input and the current state.

a) (A' and C') or (B' and C)
b) (A' and C) or (B' and C')
c) (A and C') or (B and C)
d) (A and C') or (B' and C)
e) (A and C') or (B' and C')

PS: C' means the logical inverse of C i.e NOT C. So if C=0 then C'=1.

I provided the PS note as I cannot use the proper symbols to indicate inverse which is a bar over the letter.

I've got three different years copy of the questions. I'm starting from the oldest and most of the programming questions are in Pascal (which I love cos that's the language I cut my teeth with) but I'm sure it will put people off as its syntax might look scary. I'm trying to translate them into C/C++.

Meanwhile is anyone interested in questions computer science theory? Flip-flops? Karnaugh maps (otherwise called K-maps)

Programming Languages grammar?

Nope. 9! Means 9 factorial

From their book of lamemtations, it is obvious those ones have failed. Theyre either under prepared or over prepared.This is highly ridiculous jor. How can answers not be in the options provided or dem don go do sabi sabi go dey read outside syllabus.
Let me tell you how possible it is. When loading the database with questions and answers there is the possibility of a mismatch such in either the question file or the answer file such that the answers for question 12 may be loaded as the answers to question 13. The fact that examinees are all complaining of the same set of questions in the same subject makes me believe that this is what likely happened.

SilaV:
Only if the prospective candidates would read this post! The truth is that the last Trainee Operator test was computer based.The test for Lagos center was written at Chams City(Dragnet) but never conducted by Dragnet. NLNG had their questions displayed in the computer screen of dragnet and the supervision was done by NLNG staff.The last test was a bit different from the one they used to have.The parts were made of Data Checking, Mechanical reasoning, Shapes manipulations, Numerical and Verbal reasoning. Dragnet materials can only be relevant as a practice guide in the areas of verbal and numerical ONLY.GMAT could be studied for the areas of Mechanical reasoning and shapes orientation.Data Checking requires a lot of speed:as a clue,check and memorize the first and last three letters given and compare it with the given options.You can visit assessmentday.com for real live simulations of verbal and numerical.Don't be scammed or deceived by anybody who might claim to have the exact questions of NLNG as things have changed.All what is required is speed and accuracy.
I am still waiting for the outcome of the Trainee Operator interview and hoping for the best.I wish you all the best.
OK so I'm painstakingly reading the thread from page one and I find this about trainee operator. But what is key is that while everyone was jostling for dragnet questions this guy right here was already telling us about SHL. This quote is from sometime in October 2013. The poster was even screaming for us to read his post (see his first line lol)

On another note, I know people called GEJ clueless a lot in the last dispensation, but this abuse on Buhari is too much. I mean, look at those pictures/meme people are making of him.

It is but toefl is for foreign students seeking to enter usa who are citizens of non English speaking countries so the population is less than the millions of Nigerians takng jamb


In addition to all that, toefl centers are carefully choosen with rigorous testing done before exams.
I'm not agains CBT but NOT one Nigerian student should be made to suffer for imcompetence.
Some candidates complained that they left the venue at 6pm
At the bolded toefl is written by a large number of people some of whom are foreign students. Several other non-students write toefl annually. The total worldwide population of toefl candidates is waaaaaaaaay more than JAMB.

The problem with JAMB is that they try do the entire thing within a short window whereas toefl is written year round. Also the useless infrastructure and poor connectivity worsens matters. But there is a way they can organise and coordinate this exam whereby the only inhibiting factor will be power.

Please can you clarify what you mean that questions are missing. Like they vanished from the computer? Or a subject (say mathematics) hasn't got any questions at all

Funny thing is a sizeable number of people on this thread were screaming for the biometric scanner to be used during the last election despite it been unproven technology (sorry I'm making this political Comparison). The truth is that while CBT is a proven technology, we lack the capacity to conduct such large scale test via CBT. But just like INEC went ahead with election despite a large number of people being disenfranchised, a lot of students are going to end up in tears with "this can never be my result"
