Unit 2: Basics of Coding

Which loop is used for a specified number of times?

• open

• nested

• For

• while

A function is useful because you write it once and call it as often as needed.

• True

• False

Which of the following are types of conditional statements?

• If and If/Else

• while and For

• For and If/Else

• If/Else and while

Which of the following is NOT a control structure used in coding?

• Repetition

• Selection

• Sequential

• Differential

What type of control structure is a conditional statement?

• Repetition

• Selection

• Sequential

• Differential

How does the computer use a selection control structure to decide which path to follow?

• By determining which requirements have been met”

• By repeating the code until a requirement is met

• Randomly

• By guessing which requirements work best

A repetition control structure executes code one time only.

• True

• False

How is a sequential control structure read?

• Each line in order, from top to bottom

• Each line in random order

• In a circular, repetitive order

• Only reads lines marked as significant; other lines are ignored

A command is

• a one-word instruction that has been assigned meaning

• a word that is open for interpretation

• an order you give to the computer verbally.

• a sentence the provides information

Which of the following describes the Define phase of the programming process?

• Create a plan using algorithms and control structures

• Write the code

• Identify and correct any errors

• Determine the problem
