CDS 130 Exam Correctly Solved

What is computational science? - ✅✅ The computer software itself is the object
of inquiry, not the computer hardware


Where is computational science used? - ✅✅ Biology
Neuroscience
Physics
Chemistry


What is it used for? - ✅✅ Systems biology (interacting chemical networks of
biology)
Primordial Earth (atmospheric chemistry and physics)


What is the difference between a computational scientist and a computer Scientist?
- ✅✅ A Computer scientist is related to computer hardware and software
technology


A computational scientist is related to science research using
computation/simulation.


What do computational scientists do? - ✅✅ A computational scientist is
generally to analyze the data, i.e. Cleanup, check systematic effects, calibrate,
understand and reduce to a form to be used for scientific exploitation.

, Where does Computational Data Science fit into the larger picture? (Think ab the
Venn diagram with 3 studies!) - ✅✅ It is centered between 3 major concepts
(MATH)Mathematics & numerical methodology
(CODE)Binary and computing limits with logic & matlab
(BIOLOGY)Population models and image analysis


What are the benefits of creating a computer program? - ✅✅ The benefits of
developing your own program gives you the ability to integrate hands-on activities
with a wide range of technology applications, without paying high cost software
site licensing fees


Why do errors sometimes occur after executing a block on code in MATLAB? -
✅✅ Missing quotes
Missing values
Capitals / lowercase of commands are not aligned


Does the above approach always guarantee the correct output, especially when the
data changes? - ✅✅ Knowing the command works in segments can be very
helpful, but it is possible for it to falter in the big picture. Segments don’t always
align on their own, we have to connect those segments into larger commands
ourselves.


University policies & What are they used for? - ✅✅ These policies govern the
privacy, security, and confidentiality of university data, especially highly sensitive
data, and the responsibilities of institutional units and individuals for such data.


University policies & Who do these policies apply to? - ✅✅ These policies
apply to all academic and operational departments and offices at all George Mason
University locations, owned and leased. The policies and procedures provided
herein apply to all University faculty, staff, students, visitors and contractors.
