PROGRAMMING EXAM | ALL QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS | ALREADY GRADED A+ |
VERIFIED ANSWERS | LATEST EXAM
algorithm - ..(ANSWER)...A sequence of instructions that solves a problem
Computational Thinking - ..(ANSWER)...creating a sequence of instructions to
solve a problem
ASCII - ..(ANSWER)...American Standard Code for Information Interchange, and
was developed in 1963. ASCII uses 7 bits per code, and has codes for 128
characters.
Unicode - ..(ANSWER)...Character encoding standard, published in 1991, whose
codes can have more bits than ASCII and thus can represent over 100,000 items,
such as symbols and non-English characters.
= - ..(ANSWER)...An assignment of a left-side variable with a right-side value. = is
NOT equality as in mathematics. Thus, x = 5 is read as "x is assigned with 5", and
not as "x equals 5"
variable declaration - ..(ANSWER)...Declares a new variable, specifying the
variable's name and type
, assignment statement - ..(ANSWER)...Assigns the variable on the left-side of the =
with the current value of the right-side expression.
Identifier - ..(ANSWER)...A name created by a programmer for an item like a
variable or function. Must be a sequence of letters (a-z, A-Z), underscores (_), and
digits (0-9)
start with a letter or underscore. Case sensitive.
Reserved word (or keyword) - ..(ANSWER)...A word that is part of the language,
like integer, Get, or Put. A programmer cannot use a reserved word as an
identifier.
Literal - ..(ANSWER)...Specific value in code, like 2.
Operator - ..(ANSWER)...A symbol that performs a built-in calculation, like the
operator + which performs addition
Unary minus - ..(ANSWER)...- used as negative
Incremental development - ..(ANSWER)...The process of writing, compiling, and
testing a small amount of code, then writing, compiling, and testing a small
amount more (an incremental amount), and so on.
floating-point number - ..(ANSWER)...A real number, like 98.6, 0.0001, or -
666.667. The term "floating-point" refers to the decimal point being able to
