Critical Reflection of Design Process

Getting my program up and running in the iOS simulator was very difficult. Sometimes the emulator wouldn’t load properly and other times Titanium wouldn’t recognise that the emulator had successfully launched, I had to stop the emulator and start again and ends up taking time to launch.The program has taken a great deal of time to load. Outcome I was very satisfied with the outcome the project, the project went very well, finally had the program loaded on the emulator and had it successfully launched. Titanium is great for rapid prototyping. One thing I would differently though that would be an improvement is to add more functionality so that mathematical calculations that are not included in the current application can be performed. I will in the future build for Android and eventually the blackberry.I have acquired many skills and knowledge doing this project. I have Learnt how to develop inside of appcelerator titanium to build cross platform mobile applications, how to load the program on the emulator and have the capability and skills that from the knowledge I gained using the Titanium appcelerator to do future projects with it. I have learnt how to code the pr ogram, JavaScript is a language many developers know and enables myself as a qualified web developer to get into mobile app development.I have also learnt how to develop design ideas for the application to be suitable to be used outside, easy to use, address usability issues and make it look attractive. Software interface – learnability, memorability, effectiveness, efficiency and satisfaction The iPhone calculator is a simple calculator with minimal functions. The iPhone / iPad calculator has been designed for simplicity, easy to use, to be user friendly and usability.Designed for a wide range of users, the iPhone / iPad calculator is primarily designed for students as it is the student’s major tool for performing calculations; this calculator is designed to improve the speed and accuracy of the student’s computational skills and be used. The iPhones calculator works like a pocket calculator. The iPhone’s calculator feature on the Home screen, by clickin g the calculator icon. The calculator function is used to perform a variety of different mathematical operations. The iPhone calculator works by adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.Numbers and symbols are large and easy to see and has large separated keys for increased accuracy It is also designed so that you have an efficient finger placement approach when selecting the keys so that you can perform calculations in a minimum amount of time. The iPhone calculator also has large colourful buttons and high contrast color schemes that will allow you to see the screen well outside. As most people nowadays owns a phone, the calculator function would come very handy to use when needed to perform calculations.It can be used anywhere at home, shop, work or travelling The calculator is very effective that allows the user to do a simple calculation with ease, enter in a number, then an operation, then another number, and then the = button. The c button will clear the current operati on. The calculator will perform operations in standard mathematical order. So 5+2? 2 will return 9. This is because multiplication and division are have higher precedence than addition and subtraction. .
