Variable Assignment

Identify which of the following identifiers is NOT a global variable

• TotalArea

• Area

• Length

• i

Answer explanation

The identifier 'Area' is not a global variable because it is likely defined within a specific scope, while 'TotalArea', 'Length', and 'i' are typically used as global variables in programming contexts.

The variable i is initialised (created) in line 17 of the program.
Identify the values the variable i will hold while the program is running.

• 1,2,3

• 2,4,5

• 0,1,2

• 7,6,5

Answer explanation

The variable i starts at 0 and increments by 1 in each iteration. Therefore, while the program runs, i will hold the values 0, 1, and 2 before it stops, making the correct choice 0,1,2.
