What does DEBUGGING mean when talking about programming concepts?
- A.
To use Aeroguard and avoid being bitten
- B.
Not to use insects in your programming
- C.
When an error appears in your code
- D.
Identify and remove errors
Correct Answer
D. Identify and remove errorsExplanation
Debugging in programming refers to the process of identifying and removing errors or bugs in the code. It involves analyzing the code and its execution to find and fix any issues that may cause the program to behave unexpectedly or produce incorrect results. Debugging is an essential skill for programmers as it helps ensure the functionality and reliability of their software.Rate this question:

Which of these could an algorithm be written for? Tick ALL that apply.
- A.
Baking a cake
- B.
Feeling happy
- C.
Directions to drive to the Sydney Opera House
- D.
Moving a graphic across the screen
Correct Answer(s)
A. Baking a cake
C. Directions to drive to the Sydney Opera House
D. Moving a graphic across the screenExplanation
An algorithm must have a set and specific pathway to the outcome (even if it's complex) however as happiness is an emotion of unsubstantiated results there is not clear path to it.Rate this question:

What is a LOOP?
- A.
Something a skilled pilot does
- B.
A way to tie your shoelace
- C.
A section of code or instructions that you can repeat over and over
- D.
A body of water spelled backwards
- E.
An algorithm that uses code to intersect it's own path
Correct Answer
C. A section of code or instructions that you can repeat over and overExplanation
A loop is a section of code or instructions that can be repeated over and over. It allows for the execution of a certain block of code multiple times until a specific condition is met. This repetition is useful for automating tasks, iterating over data structures, and controlling program flow. Loops are an essential part of programming and help in making code more efficient and concise.Rate this question:

IF/THEN or IF/ELSE is a programming term known as _______?
- A.
Loop
- B.
Conditional
- C.
Algorithm
- D.
Syntax
- E.
A question only a philosopher could know
Correct Answer
B. ConditionalExplanation
The term "IF/THEN" or "IF/ELSE" in programming refers to conditional statements. These statements allow the program to make decisions based on certain conditions. It checks if a certain condition is true, and if it is, it executes a specific block of code. If the condition is false, it may execute a different block of code or skip it entirely. Therefore, the correct answer is "Conditional".Rate this question:

What is a NESTED LOOP?
- A.
A place birds put their most protected eggs
- B.
A scary part of a roller coasted ride
- C.
A loop within a loop in a program
- D.
A loop with a conditional variable
Correct Answer
C. A loop within a loop in a programExplanation
A nested loop refers to a loop within a loop in a program. It is a programming construct where one loop is placed inside another loop. This allows for the repeated execution of a set of instructions within the outer loop, while the inner loop executes a set of instructions multiple times. The inner loop completes its full iteration for each iteration of the outer loop. This is commonly used when dealing with multidimensional data structures or when performing operations that require multiple iterations.Rate this question:

What is an EVENT as a programming concept?
- A.
Actions that a computer constantly monitors for
- B.
When someone clicks a mouse
- C.
Anything that happens at any time
- D.
When a program has completed
Correct Answer
A. Actions that a computer constantly monitors forExplanation
An event, as a programming concept, refers to actions that a computer constantly monitors for. This means that the computer is actively listening for specific events to occur, such as a button click or a key press. By monitoring these events, the computer can respond and execute the appropriate code or action.Rate this question:

An algorithm is a process or set of rules, a step by step set of instructions to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The given statement is true because an algorithm is indeed a process or set of rules that provides a step-by-step guide for solving a problem or performing calculations. It helps in breaking down complex tasks into smaller, more manageable steps, making it easier for computers or humans to understand and execute. Algorithms are widely used in various fields such as computer science, mathematics, and problem-solving in general.Rate this question:

What does the tortoise and hare slider do under the run window in Code.org
- A.
Reads you the story of the tortoise and hare so kids realise the importance of being slow and careful in their approach to code.
- B.
Make the compile/run window animate slower or faster so you can keep track of progress
- C.
Makes the course slower or faster so it's easier to understand and matches the students pace
- D.
There's a turtle and hare there?
- E.
It's actually a tortoise, not a turtle
Correct Answer
B. Make the compile/run window animate slower or faster so you can keep track of progressExplanation
The tortoise and hare slider under the run window in Code.org allows the user to adjust the speed at which the compile/run window animates. This feature helps the user keep track of the progress and allows them to slow down or speed up the animation according to their preference.Rate this question:

If a conditional isn't met, what does the code/program do?
- A.
Picks a random choice between the conditional being met and not being met
- B.
Does the code inside the conditional
- C.
Runs the very next line of code outside the conditional
- D.
Loops until the conditional is met
Correct Answer
C. Runs the very next line of code outside the conditionalExplanation
If a conditional isn't met, the code/program will run the very next line of code outside the conditional. This means that if the condition specified in the if statement evaluates to false, the code will skip the block of code inside the if statement and proceed to execute the next line of code that is not within the if statement.Rate this question:
