Introduction

     When comparing a factory worker and a freelance worker, there are some differences that may arise. Specifically, there may be differences in the quality of the work performed. This would be evident in the work flexibility and effort that could potentially go into both factory worker and freelance worker.      When regarding a factory worker, one would be more motivated to maintain top quality in a product. This is because that person would have a fixed schedule with time specifically allocated to performing a single task within a job. However, when regarding a freelance worker, their work schedule is a lot more flexible. This person may choose their own time to work and may not put as much effort that would be seen in a factory simply because they do not need to.      The quality of the product would also depend on the personality of the worker too, of course, but the general working period would be more rigorous for a...

     If I were a freelance software guru, I would assure that all of my programs are up to high quality and are working exactly as they should be. This would include consulting the development design and talking with other workers to make sure that parts of the code are functioning properly.      When I am developing, I would make sure to comment on any and all changes made to the code that might confuse other programmers. I would elaborate on convoluted details to make sure that they are clear. I want to be able to get my point across to co-workers of this job. When working with the code though, I would also make sure to debug it.      When I am analyzing already written code, I want to make sure that there are no errors happening along the way. Error filled code would lower the overall quality of the development and would not allow progression in our work. I will also check for memory leaks and other errors that may make ...

     If I were to own a small chocolate bar factory, I would make sure that all of the chocolate bars produced were of the utmost quality. This would be established by measuring each produced chocolate bar in different areas.      One of the measurements would include chocolate bar size. A given chocolate bar could not be too big or too small. A chocolate bar that is of invalid size would be discarded and replaced to ensure quality working time management. Another measurement would be the quality of the ingredients.      The ingredients of the chocolate bar cannot be unsafe or unconventional. They need to each be produced the same way in order to maintain flavor consistency. Any chocolate bar that does not meet the standards of the valid ingredients would be discarded and would cease to be produced by my company.

     Quality assurance is a work practice that ensures that a given product is well maintained to be functional and at top working order. It is defined by how well the product can stay maintained given a certain amount of time. Quality assurance is pertinent in a company to guarantee top quality in their products.      Quality assurance and quality control have their differences. While quality assurance is focused on keeping a well maintained functioning product, quality control is focused on the quality of the product every step of the way. This means that the quality of the product does not degrade itself at any time during work. It will always be functional, and the product will not be dysfunctional.

     My name is Chukwuemeka Akpom. I am a senior Bioinformatics major at University of Maryland, Baltimore County with a minor in Computer Science. I really into software development such as video game development and general software titles. I would like to learn a lot of things regarding software development and programming. With this experience, I feel like I can use my programming knowledge in a more practical way such as developing code for many huge or minor companies.      I started my education being a major in Biochemistry, but this was a major that I did not have a big passion for. I later began to realize that many things that entertain me in my life, or that I enjoy to do, stems from software. Ever since I changed to Bioinformatics, I have learned more from programming than I have from chemistry. This kept my interest educationally.      I am from Tuscaloosa, Alabama. I was only there for 5 years after my birth,...
