1.

Clue:

You find a math puzzle:
“If x = 3 and y = 4, then the thief’s code says:
secret = (x + y) * 2”

What is secret?

Question: “What is the name of the coding term that stores a value.”

a)

Operator

b)

Function

c)

Variable

d)

Event

2.

Cue: “My language is simple, I don’t use text.
I build commands by snapping together colored blocks, one after another.”

Suddenly, the computer locks and flashes a message:

“Identify my coding style to gain access.”

Question: What is this type of programming called where commands are made by connecting visual blocks instead of writing text code?

a)

Debugging

b)

Broadcast

c)

Parallel Execution

d)

Block-Based Coding

3.

Cue: The scene opens on a dark computer screen.
A cat sprite is supposed to be center stage, but it’s missing!

A flashing note reads: “I am not lost, just misplaced. Find my exact location and you’ll find me.

Look for the numbers that tell where I live.”

The program shows mysterious numbers:

Question: In coding, what do we call the pair of numbers (x, y) that describe the exact position of an object on the screen?

a)

System

b)

Input

c)

Coordinate

d)

Loop

4.

Cue: The stolen program begins to glitch and fast.
On your screen, multiple sprites start moving at the same time:
the robot waves, the cat jumps, and the alien dances all at once!

A red warning flashes:

“System overload detected. Too many scripts running together!”

The thief’s first note appears:

“You’ll never solve this.
My code runs side by side, perfectly synchronized.
Only those who understand this concept can shut it down.”

The system asks for a single phrase that describes this kind of coding behavior.

Question: In coding, what do we call it when two or more scripts or programs run at the same time?

a)

Block-Based Coding

b)

Parallel Execution

c)

 Costume

d)

Sequence

5.

Cue: The system hums:
“I am the bridge between values.
I compare, add, or multiply — I make the numbers work.”

To unlock the code, you must identify the type of coding block that performs mathematical or logical actions.

Question: What is the coding term for a symbol or block that performs an action such as +, -, *, or / ?

a)

Operator

b)

Sprite

c)

 System

d)

Loop
