Identify which statement describes algorithmic thinking

Identifying the steps involved in solving a problem

Identifying what problems need to be solved

Identify the correct definition for ‘algorithm'

The steps that are taken to solve a problem

The following algorithm should take as input and add together two numbers, outputting the result. Identify the correct algorithm.

num1 = input("Enter the first number") num2 = input("Enter the second number") num3 = num1 + num2 print(num3)

num1 = input("Enter the first number") num2 – input("Enter the second number") num3 = num1 + num2 print(num3)

num1 = input("Enter the first number") num3 = input("Enter the second number") num3 = num1 + num2 print(num3)

num1 = input("Enter the first number") num2 = input("Enter the second number") num3 = num1 + num2 print(num2)

The following algorithm should take a number as input, and output the 12 times table for that number. Identify the correct algorithm.

number = input("Enter a number") for x = 1 to 12 print(number * x) next x

number = input("Enter a number") for x = 0 to 12 print(number * x) next x

number = input("Enter a number") for x = 1 to 12 print(number X x) next x

number = input("Enter a number") for x = 1 to 12 print(number * number) next x

The following algorithm should take as input two numbers, add them together, multiply the answer by 11, add 4, then divide by 2. It should output the result. Identify the correct algorithm.

number = input("Enter a number") number2 = input("Enter the second number") final = (((number + number2) * 11) + 4) / 2 print (final)

number = input("Enter a number") number = input("Enter the second number") final = (((number + number) * 11) + 4) / 2 print (final)

number = input("Enter a number") number2 = input("Enter the second number") final = (((number + number2) 11) + 4) 2 print (final)

number = input("Enter a number") number2 = input("Enter the second number") final = number + number2 + 4 * 11 / 2 print (final)

The following is not true about variable names

They must be in capital letters

They cannot start with numbers or contain spaces

Consider the following expression: a = b. This means

The value of memory location b gets copied into memory location a

The value of memory location a gets copied into memory location b

Converting data to a different type

Printing out of the program’s results

Why would you use good code maintainability when writing a program?

Reduces the number of lines of code

Improves how quickly the program runs

Makes code easier to read and debug

Variable scope refers to:

The visibility of variables within a program

Logic errors associated with a variable

The advantages of parameter passing don’t include this:

Makes it easier to use global variables

The same subprogram can be reused in more cases

Can cut down on the use of wasteful global variables

The main difference between procedures and functions is:

Functions may return values, while procedures don’t

Procedures are usually longer and have more instructions

Functions use parameter passing, while procedures don’t

Functions are more difficult to debug

From this statement: a = getChoice() we can see that:

getChoice() is a global variable

Trying to use a local variable from outside its scope will cause:

A global variable to be overwritten by it
