1) In order for a repetition to be reproduced unambiguously, what three attributes are needed to convey the proper instructions?
There must be a starting point, a point where the code ends, and it restarts back to the beginning.
2) How are these three attributes conveyed in the music notation above?
The starting point is the beginning of the phrase, the point of where it gets sent back is the is represented by the colon symbol at the end, and thus it starts again at the beginning of the phrase.
3) Find and record a set of instructions containing a repetition clause (e.g., instructions on a shampoo bottle, a recipe, etc.). How are these attributes conveyed there? If any are missing, how would the reader infer them?
How to download the McDelivery app from a McDonalds bag
- Download the uber eats app
- Select “McDonald’s”
- Order your favorite foods
In this set of instructions, it has a start where you download or open up the uber eats app, selecting the “McDonalds” option for delivery is part of the start or the middle part, and the point of repetition where the instructions can be a repeated is the ordering the food. It would’ve just been in a constant loop afterwards because the first two instructions have already been pre-completed.
hope this helps :)
