Programming Constructs Quiz

What is the most simple and straightforward programming construct?

• Branching

• Sequence

• Selection

• Iteration

Which construct allows the program to go in different directions based on the outcome of a condition?

• Selection

• Branching

• Sequence

• Iteration

What is the first typical selection construct you learn about in programming?

• Switch Select Case Statement

• While Loop

• For Loop

• If Statement

Which programming language supports the switch select case statements?

• Python

• C++

• JavaScript

• Java

What is the popular form of counter controlled looping?

• Do Until Loop

• While Loop

• If Statement

• For Loop

When is a while loop used in programming?

• When the number of iterations needed is known ahead of time

• When the number of iterations is not known

• When the code needs to execute at least once

• When the code needs to execute at least twice

Which construct guarantees that the code inside the loop will execute at least once?

• If Statement

• Do Until Loop

• While Loop

• For Loop

What is the purpose of a do until loop?

• To execute the code at least once

• To execute the code based on a counter

• To execute the code multiple times

• To execute the code based on a condition

What is the difference between a while loop and a do until loop?

• The while loop is a counter controlled loop, while the do until loop is a condition controlled loop

• The while loop guarantees the code inside will execute at least once, while the do until loop doesn't

• The while loop has the possibility of never running the code inside, while the do until loop guarantees it will execute at least once

• The while loop checks the exit condition at the end, while the do until loop checks it at the beginning

Which construct is used to repeat sections of code in programming?

• Selection

• Branching

• Sequence

• Iteration
