We had originally prepared this script prior to any detailed planning of our demo. We decided not to follow an exact script as we felt that it would be too constraining. Rather, we agreed on the general flow that the demo should take; we decided what functions would be showcased and in what general order. Both Curtis and I work much better when we are given the freedom to think on our feet and neither of us much liked the idea of working directly from a script.
The test data seen here was created for the demo but was not used. We felt that it was not critical that we input any specific data set, but rather we demonstrate the general input capabilities of the system.
This script has been included however to satisfy the course requirements. It is actually of very little practical importance but it is none the less presented here for your scrutiny.
