8/16/24 – Rich Text Protocol

Summary: Today we started by finishing our review of our plaintext protocols (Yesterday’s Activity). We then discussed our next project Rich Text Protocol.

The Rich Text Protocol is very similar to our Plaintext Protocol but must include support for the following features…

  • Size: small, medium large
  • Color: black, red, green, blue
  • Style: none, boldunderline, italic
  • Script: noscript,  subscript, superscript

The default text is medium size, black, no styles, no script.

Your protocol will be evaluated on the same following aspects…

  • Functionality – The protocol accomplishes the task at hand. It always works.
  • Clarity – The protocol is written clearly and is easy to understand
  • Formatting – The document looks polished and professional.
  • Efficiency – The protocol uses as few bits as possible.
  • Ease of Use – It is fast and easy to use.
  • Examples – The protocol includes at least one example.

Homework: Rich Text Protocols are due Tuesday at 8:00am (submit via Google Classroom)(CA-05)
