Conditional Coding Pre-Assessment

In the context of writing code, what is a condition?

• Something you test in your code that ends up being true or false
• The order in which you write your commands
• It tells you whether or not the code will run
• It is an action that will only run when the code has a function

Why would I want to use conditional code (an if / else statement, for example) when writing my code?

• If I have multiple steps that I want to condense into something smaller and more manageable
• If the situation I am coding for is constantly changing; the code will be successful no matter how the situation changes
• If I want something to repeat over and over without me having to recode it
• If I have a bug in the code and I want something to find it for me

What is the difference between an if / else statement and an if / else if statement?

• An if /else statement will only run if there is a function.
• They are the same thing,
• An if / else statement only has one condition and an if / else if statement has two.
• An if / else if statement has only one condition and an if / else statement has two.

Which of these is NOT a condition you worked with in the Swift Playgrounds lessons?

• isOnGem
• isOnClosedSwitch
• isOnOpenSwitch
• isOnBlock

In the context of writing code, what is conditional code?

• It is code that will only run if the condition is true
• It is code that repeats several times if the condition is false
• It is code that has a name that you pick
• It is code that will only run if you add in a function

What is wrong with this code?

• It is missing a bracket and won't run
• He never turns left, he needs to after it says collectGem ( )
• He never turns left, he should turn left after is says moveForward ( )
• The code is fine, it should run perfectly

What is wrong with this code?

• There are 2 if statements instead of an if / else if
• Nothing
• There is no need for anything about a gem
• It needs to be looped

What is wrong with this code?

• Instead of else if isOnOpenSwitch { toggleSwitch ( ) it should say else if isOnGem { collect Gem ( )
• The moveForward ( ) is in the wrong spot
• The for loop should have 15 and not 12
• There is nothing wrong with it

What is wrong with this code?

• Nothing
• There needs to be a moveForward ( ) command after each collectGem ( ) 
• It is missing the curly brackets after each collectGem ( )
• It should say if isOnOpenSwitch ( ) instead of isOnClosedSwitch ( )

What is wrong with this code?

• Nothing
• It is missing both moveFroward ( ) commands that go before both if statements
• It is missing curly brackets
• It should say if isOnOpenSwitch ( ) instead of isOnClosedSwitch ( )
