What are the THREE things (programming constructs) that every programs do?
SEQUENCE, SELECTION, ITERATION
SEQUENCE, DECISION, SELECTION
SELECTION, ORDERING, REPETITION
ITERATION, REPETITION, LOOP
2
What does the term "Iteration" mean?
To put things in a sequence.
It's when a question is asked.
A loop that repeats a set of instructions.
3
Define the term "Sequence".
A set of codes within a program
A set of instructions
A set of instructions in an order
4
Does the "ORDER" matter when defining a SEQUENCE ?
IT depends. Executing in any order will still solve the problem
I don't know
No, not really
Yes, the ORDER of execution is essential
5
An algorithm is a set of random instructions
False
True
6
What is an algorithm?
A set of instructions such as a flow chart.
A set of rules made by a computer.
An algorithm is a set of instructions for a specific task.
7
What are algorithms used for ?
They are used to solve any life problems
They are used to solve only maths problems
They are pretty useless
They are used to only solve computer problems
8
Select the difference between humans and computers
Computers are faster, need electricity, works long hours whereas human dont
Computer cannot make mistakes whereas humans make mistake
Human can take their own decision whereas computers need instructions
All the above answers are correct
9
What does the term "Selection" mean?
When a question is asked which may have two outcomes.
A loop of repeated instructions
A decision with one outcome.
A sequence of instructions in order.
10
Can a set of ORDERED instructions that does NOT Solve any problem be called: Algorithm?
No, it has to solve a problem
All the answers above are correct
Yes, it is a set of instructions
Yes, the problem to solve is not thw priority
