Answer: 7
My answer: 6
I misunderstood binary
In which of the following situations would it be most appropriate to choose lossy compression over lossless compression?
Answer: Storing music files on a smartphone in order to maximize the number of songs that can be stored
My answer: Storing a formatted text document to be restored to its original version for a print publication
I figured that a text document would suffer the least from lossy, so it's best to choose
The teacher wants to determine whether students who play a sport are more or less likely to have higher grade point averages than students who do not play any sports. Which of the following pairs of spreadsheets can be combined and analyzed to determine the desired information?
Answer: Spreadsheets I and II

I thought it would be better to sort through students in sports and students above 3.5 gpa rather than sort through students in sports and all students
Using only the data collected during the 7-day period, which of the following statements is true?
Answer: The total number of items purchased on a given date can be determined by searching the data for all transactions that occurred on the given date and then adding the number of items purchased for each matching transaction.
My answer: The method of payment that was used in the greatest number of transactions during the 7-day period can be determined by sorting the data by the method of payment, then adding the number of items purchased for each type of payment method, and then finding the maximum sum.
I missread the answer. I now see that it was wrong, I just got mixed up from all the words

There are definitely ways for me to improve my CPT project. I could make the UI more readable. I could scale the difficulty more, I feel like it's too easy right now. I could add more gimmicks, give more to do in the game. I should add update and delete. I think my priority is to add update. I don't think delete is too important. After that I'll make game adjustments. I'll scale the difficulty and finish coding a different attack for the player to use. One problem is that I can see the new attack becoming obsolete very quickly, as I currently have it's damage as a constant. I'm thinking of making it a multiple of the attack stat. Maybe I'll make the text appear slower with a function. I'll make a function that uses setinterval in a while loop and breaks when the parameter in the function equals the interval count. I could insert the wait function in the writeterm function so I don't need to add it into a ton of places. Maybe I'll make attack lead to another function that asks if the player wants to use normal attack or agi.
- Add update
- increase opponent health or increase their damage
- finish coding new attack
- make the terminal easier to read
- insert stats on the right side of the terminal (maybe)
- add heal magic
- add wait function
- direct attack to a new function (maybe)
