TSA CODING QUESTIONS WITH 100%
CORRECT SOLUTIONS | GUARANTEED
SUCCESS.
Computer Program - correct answer- Any form of software that
runs on top of the operating system
Programming Language - correct answer- A system of
conventions and symbols used to create instructions for
computers, which read through and follow the instructions in
the code (content written using a programming language)
Machine Code - correct answer- A binary system that is made
of a series of 1s and 0s. It is considered the lowest level of
programming and is the set of instructions with which the
computer's CPU works directly
Low-level Language - correct answer- A programming language
whose code is more similar to what the computer works with
and is less human-readable; it is very specific and directly
manipulates hardware. They are more efficient but harder to
use. Examples: C, C++

High-level Language - correct answer- A programming
language whose code has multiple layers of abstraction (i.e. the
code has to be translated into a form that the computer can
understand) and is thus more human-readable. With high-level
languages, one does not directly manipulate the hardware and
instead works with the logic of the program. Examples:
FORTRAN, COBOL
Source Code - correct answer- The code that is written by the
programmer and is in a form that can be understood and edited
by humans.
Object Code - correct answer- Source code that has been
transformed by the computer into a low-level form that the CPU
can understand and work with.
Statements - correct answer- Individual, specific instructions
used in programming to accomplish specific tasks.
Algorithm - correct answer- A predefined procedure that aims to
solve a problem or complete a task. It takes into account
specific circumstances and has varying courses of action for
each.
