The algorithm for solving this problem on a computer must input each of the grades, perform the averaging calculation and display the result. 1 // 2 // Class average with counter-controlled repetition. 3 4 usingSystem; 5 6 classAverage1 7 { 8 static voidMain( string[] args ) 9 { 10   inttotal,  // sum of grades 11 gradeCounter,  // number of grades entered 12 gradeValue,  // grade value 13 average;  // average of all grades 14 15 // initialization phase 16 total = 0;  // clear total 17 gradeCounter = 1;  // prepare to loop 18 19 // processing phase 20   while( gradeCounter <= 10)  // loop 10 times 21 { 22   // prompt for input and read grade from user 23 Console.Write( "Enter integer grade: "); 24 25   // read input and convert to integer 26 gradeValue = Int32.Parse( Console.ReadLine() ); 27 28   // add gradeV

Generating new ideas is not easy. Fortunately, a technique known as SCAMPER can be invaluable. Select a small team of between three and six people to assist you with your search for new ideas. Choose people from different disciplines and levels within the organisation. Using the SCAMPER search for new ideas, ask whether we can:  Substitute: existing components, machines or human resources to improve the product. Combine:one or more of the products functions.

When considering the above questions, it’s essential that customer value drives the discussion not how the competition is going to react. In your blue ocean, there will be no competitors if you get it right (at least initially). Start by identifying potenti
