About this resource
This quiz covers fundamental programming concepts in computer science, specifically focusing on JavaScript programming and computational thinking skills appropriate for grades 9-12. The questions assess essential programming constructs including variable assignment and manipulation, string operations, Boolean expressions and logical operators, conditional statements (if/else structures), loops (particularly while loops), and basic array operations with indexing. Students need to understand how variables store and modify data, how to trace through code execution step-by-step, the difference between assignment and comparison operators, how Boolean logic works with AND/OR operations, and how control structures like conditionals and loops affect program flow. The quiz also tests debugging skills through algorithm analysis and requires students to predict program output by mentally executing code segments, which demonstrates computational thinking and code comprehension at the high school level. Created by Sara Kazemi, a Computers teacher in US who teaches grade 9-12. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool for AP Computer Science Principles students, particularly during Unit 5 which focuses on programming fundamentals and algorithmic thinking. Teachers can use this as a warm-up activity to gauge student understanding before diving into more complex programming projects, as homework to reinforce concepts learned in class, or as review material before summative assessments. The varied question types make it ideal for identifying specific areas where students need additional support, whether in variable manipulation, logical reasoning, or code tracing skills. This assessment aligns with Common Core mathematical practices in problem-solving and reasoning, as well as CSTA K-12 Computer Science Standards 3A-AP-13 (creating prototypes), 3A-AP-15 (justifying program choices), and 3A-AP-17 (decomposing tasks), supporting the development of computational thinking skills essential for success in computer science coursework.

A programmer wrote an essay for his history class, and realized he has confused the names of Benjamin Franklin and Alexander Graham Bell. Instead of going through the whole paper and changing the names, he used the following incorrect algorithm in an attempt replace every occurrence of "Benjamin Franklin" with "Alexander Graham Bell" and vise versa:
First, change all occurrences of "Benjamin Franklin" to "apple" Then, change all occurrences of "apple" to "Alexander Graham Bell". Then, change all occurrences of "Alexander Graham Bell" to "Benjamin Franklin".
Here is an example of one of the sentences from the paper:
Alexander Graham Bell was born 141 years before Benjamin Franklin, so he was never able to telephone his neighbors.
Which of the following is the result of running the described incorrect algorithm on the sentence above?
Benjamin Franklin was born 141 years before Alexander Graham Bell, so he was never able to telephone his neighbors.
apple was born 141 years before Benjamin Franklin, so he was never able to telephone his neighbors.
Alexander Graham Bell was born 141 years before apple, so he was never able to telephone his neighbors.
Benjamin Franklin was born 141 years before Benjamin Franklin, so he was never able to telephone his neighbors.
Alexander Graham Bell was born 141 years before Alexander Graham Bell, so he was never able to telephone his neighbors.
