Unit 1 - Revision Learning Aim D

What is a procedure in the context of computer programming?

• A set of coded instructions to run a program or calculation.

• A type of programming language.

• A module within a program.

• A method for testing software.

What is the primary characteristic of procedural programming?

• It is object-oriented.

• It uses a set of well-structured steps and procedures.

• It starts from one point and follows routes through the code, calling procedures and functions as needed.

• It is primarily used for creating graphical user interfaces.

Which of the following best describes modules in programming?

• Functions that cannot be tested separately.

• Independent parts of a program that can be coded and tested separately, then assembled.

• Errors in a program that need debugging.

• The main program that integrates various components.

Which programming language is mentioned as an example of a procedural language?

• Java

• Python

• JavaScript

What is a Block in procedural programming?

• A single line of code that performs a specific function

• A named sub-program that can be called from other places in the code and returns when completed

• A set of instructions that performs a loop

• A data structure that stores multiple values

Which of the following best describes a Function in procedural programming?

• A command that stops the execution of the program

• A variable that stores data

• The code written to perform a particular task and it returns a value

• A user-defined data type

What is the purpose of a Procedure in procedural programming?

• To return a value from where it is called

• To perform a particular task without returning a value

• To declare variables

• To create a new thread

What does a Statement represent in procedural programming?

• A conditional expression

• A loop structure

• A line of code

• An error handling routine

What is the purpose of a Sequence control structure in programming?

• To decide which path the code should take based on a condition

• To repeat a block of code multiple times

• To execute steps in a specific order to perform a task

• To stop the execution of the program

When should a Condition control structure be used in programming?

• When the code needs to be executed in a specific order

• Whenever a decision needs to be made on which path is to be taken through the code

• When a block of code needs to be executed repeatedly

• When the program needs to terminate
