Problem-Solving Quiz

What is a problem?

• A challenge that needs to be overcome

• A solution that needs to be resolved

• A task that is easily accomplished

• A situation that requires no action

What is a process?

• A random set of actions

• A goal without any steps

• A series of steps to achieve a goal

• A single action with no goal

What is problem-solving?

• Solving problems without identifying them

• Creating more problems without solutions

• Ignoring the problem and avoiding solutions

• Identifying the problem and generating solutions

What is an Algorithm?

• A step-by-step process for solving a problem

• A random guess at a solution

• A complex problem with no solution

• A simple task with no steps

What is Pseudocode?

• An informal description of a computer program's logic

• A formal programming language

• A code that cannot be executed

• A physical code written on paper

What is a Computer Program?

• A computer's hardware components

• A set of random words

• A computer's physical appearance

• A set of instructions written in a programming language

What is syntax in programming?

• The output of a program

• Rules and conventions defining the structure of a programming language

• The speed of a program

• The size of a program

What are the importance of problem-solving skills?

• Ignoring problems, being inflexible, creating more problems, decreasing productivity

• Following instructions, avoiding challenges, being unproductive, lacking creativity

• Critical thinking, adaptability, innovative solutions, increased productivity

• Random guessing, being rigid, lacking creativity, decreasing productivity

What are the steps in the problem-solving process?

• Understand the problem, develop a plan, implement the solution

• Randomly guess, never understand, never implement

• Ignore the problem, avoid planning, never implement

• Create more problems, never understand, never plan

What is the purpose of Algorithms and Pseudocode?

• To confuse programmers

• To map out solutions before implementing them

• To slow down the problem-solving process

• To complicate problems further
