Which of the following is not one of the Big Ideas identified in the Course and Exam Description for APCSA?

• Modularity, which basically means splitting problems into manageable parts with reusable solutions

• Variables, which are basically how a program stores information to be manipulated or processed

• Control, which basically means sequencing (putting code in order), selection (making decisions with code), and iteration (getting code to repeat itself)

• Impact of computing, which basically means the effects computing has had on society and being responsible for the consequences of our programming creations
