2The purpose of Problem decomposition is to:
- AMake a program easier to read
- BPlace all of the program statements in one central function
- CDivide the problem into smaller pieces to make it easier to solve
- DCreate a flowchart showing the program flow
3One way of solving a problem is to take the six stage approach:
Identify the problem
Analyse the problem
Identify alternative solutions
Select the best solution
List the instructions
Evaluate the solution.
In which of these stages could we use the “Five Whys” technique?- AAnalyse

7Given the following values:
a = 5
b = 8
c = 4
What is the result of the following comparison?

8Pseudo code is:
- ANot necessary for short programs or functions

9Indenting in pseudocode is:
- ANot necessary
- BOnly necessary with functions
- CNice to have but ultimately not necessary
- DIndicates steps that occur within a function, loop or if statement
- ENone of the above
10Boolean comparisions:
- AUse AND, OR and NOT
- BWith OR, program will stop evaluating once a TRUE value is found
- CCan only have two items to compare: e.g. age < 18 AND eligible == "Y"
- DBoth: AND,OR and NOT and With OR, program will stop evaluating once a TRUE value is found
11What is wrong with the following algorithm?
While age < 18
print "too young"- ASince there is no way for age to be updated inside the loop, it will make an infinite loop.
- BSince the age value has not been specified in the correct format in will not run
- CSince the age has been stated that the age is to be less than 18 but no incoming value has been specified it will not create any output
- DNone of the above
12An if statement must always have an else included with it.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
13Given the Python code below, how many numbers will be printed?
x=0
while x <= 5:
print (x)- A0

- C5
- D6
14Considering the code below, which of the statements is true?
if age >= 18:
print("OK, you can vote")
else:
print("Too young")- AThis code will not run because you do not have a condition for the else statement
- BYou do not need a condition for an else statement to run
- CNone of the above
15Given the following Python code, what message will be printed?
number = 27
if number % 3 == 0:
print("fizz")
else:
print(number)- Afizz
- Bnumber
16 I have the following list and code. What numbers will be output?

print(elements[x])- A1,2,3,4
- B1,3,5
- C1,3
- DNone of the above
17Which of the following is a valid python variable name?
- A1stNum
- Bfirst number
- Cfirst#
- DfirstNum
- ENone of the above are valid
18Once a variable is assigned a value in one function, that variable, with the same value, can be accessed by another function in the same program.
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
19What is the difference between an array and a list?
- ABoth arrays and lists can contain different types of data (for instance ints and strings)
- BOnly lists can contain both ints and strings
- COnly arrays start at location zero, lists start at location one
- DThere are no differences between arrays and lists
20Data should always be sorted and presented in ascending order?
- ARichtig
- BFalsch
21Which statement is true concerning use of comments?
- AYou should have a comment on each line
- BComments should be at least two sentences long
- CComments should only be placed at the start of functions
- DComments should be placed wherever needed to make your code more clear
22When turning in your program code you should leave in code that is never used (i.e. that you just tried something out but it didn't work), because this shows your thinking process.
