Lesson 16: If/Else with Bee Flashcard

Front

What is the primary function of an "if" statement in programming?

Back

To make decisions based on conditions

Front

In the context of the Bee activity in Lesson 16, what does the "else" part of an "if/else" statement do?

Back

It executes when the "if" condition is false.

Front

What will the bee do if there is no flower in front?

Back

Turn right

Front

Why is it important to use "if/else" statements in programming?

Back

To handle different scenarios and make decisions

Front

Given the following scenario: "The bee needs to collect nectar if there is a flower, otherwise it should move forward." Which pseudocode correctly represents this scenario? Options: if (flower) { move forward } else { collect nectar }, if (flower) { collect nectar } else { move forward }, if (flower) { turn left } else { move forward }, if (flower) { move forward } else { turn right }

Back

if (flower) { collect nectar } else { move forward }

Front

What will happen if the condition in an "if" statement is always true?

Back

The "if" block will always execute

Front

In the Bee activity, how can you ensure the bee collects nectar only when there is a flower? Options: Use a loop to check for flowers, Use an "if" statement to check for flowers, Use a variable to store flower presence, Use a function to collect nectar

Back

Use an "if" statement to check for flowers

Front

Analyze the following pseudocode and determine what the bee will do: if (path is clear) { move forward } else { turn left } What will the bee do if the path is blocked?

Back

Turn left

Front

Why might a programmer choose to use an "if/else" statement instead of just an "if" statement?

Back

To handle both true and false conditions explicitly

Front

What is the purpose of the "if/else" statement in the following pseudocode: if (honeycomb is full) { make honey } else { collect nectar }?

Back

To decide whether to make honey or collect nectar based on the honeycomb's status
