Test: Flow Control In C# Trivia Questions Quiz
The trivia questions below are designed to test your knowledge when it comes to the flow of C#, and as promised, there will be many more of them. Do you think that what you have covered so far is enough to keep you prepared for the finals? Take this brief quiz and find out if you just might need to get a tutor.
- 1.
Programmers use their knowledge about a problem to choose how to solve it. If a programmer chose a for loop, they probably knew what information about the problem being solved?
- A.
How long each step of the solution would run
- B.
How many times a specific step of the solution should be repeated
- C.
How many different kinds of steps would be in the solution
- D.
What user the problem should be solved for
Correct Answer
B. How many times a specific step of the solution should be repeatedExplanation
The 'for loop' construct was designed to repeat a task exactly, an exact number of times.Rate this question:

Which of the following iteration constructs is most specialized for use with collections?
- A.
The for() loops
- B.
The foreach() loop
- C.
The do{}while() loop
- D.
The while() loop
Correct Answer
B. The foreach() loopExplanation
The 'foreach' construct is used to execute a block of code once for each and every object in a collection. The advantage is that the programmer need not know exactly how many objects there are - C# knows.Rate this question:

Which of the following iteration constructs evaluate their conditions after executing the statements they control?
- A.
Do(){}
- B.
While(){}
Correct Answer
B. While(){}Explanation
The while() loop first evaluates its conditional statement, and then executes its controlled code-block, before beginning again. The 'do{}while()' construct is the reverse. The for() and foreach() also check conditions first, and are different in other ways also.Rate this question:

Given the for loop with the conditional “(int i 0; i <10; ... )”, what is the third sub-statement that would allow the loop to execute ten times?
- A.
++i
- B.
I++
- C.
I--
Correct Answer
B. I++Explanation
The statements “++i” and “i++” will evaluate in larger statements in a different order, and so have different effects sometimes. Here, they are essentially being evaluated by themselves, and so they both increment 'i' ten times: from 0 to 10.Rate this question:

What is the software called that translates code into something meaningful the computer can understand?
- A.
Converter
- B.
Transliterator
- C.
Translator
- D.
Compiler
Correct Answer
D. CompilerExplanation
A compiler is a software program that translates code written in a high-level programming language into a lower-level language, such as machine code, that can be understood and executed by a computer. It performs various tasks, including lexical analysis, syntax analysis, and code optimization, to convert the code into a format that the computer can understand and execute efficiently.Rate this question:
