What is sequencing in coding?

• The process of creating a new coding language

• The act of organizing code into folders

• The method of writing comments in code

• The specific order in which instructions are executed.

Why is sequencing important in coding?

• To make the code look longer

• To confuse other programmers

• To slow down the program

• To determine the order in which instructions are executed

What is debugging code?

• Ignoring any errors and running the program as is

• Identifying and fixing errors or bugs in a computer program

• Deleting the entire program

• Writing new code without checking for errors

How can you identify and fix errors in your code?

• By ignoring the errors and hoping they will go away on their own

• By asking someone else to fix the errors for you

• By deleting the entire code and starting from scratch

• By using debugging tools, reading error messages, and testing different parts of the code.

What are loops in coding?

• A type of car

• A type of fruit

• A control structure that repeats a group of commands.

• A type of shoe

How do loops help in writing efficient code?

• By making the code longer and more complex

• By causing errors in the code

• By allowing the same set of instructions to be executed multiple times without the need to write them out each time.

• By slowing down the execution of the code

What is an algorithm in coding?

• A type of computer hardware

• A type of software program

• A step-by-step procedure or formula for solving a problem.

• A type of bug in the code

Why are algorithms important in computer programming?

• Algorithms are only used in advanced programming

• They provide a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem or performing a task.

• They are not important at all

• Algorithms make programming more complicated

How can you create patterns with code?

• Using a calculator

• Using only one type of variable

• By writing long paragraphs of text

• Using loops and conditional statements
