  • 2. 

    What is an algorithm?

    • Set of instruction steps to solve a given problem.

    • Series of solutions to assist in solving a problem.

    • Instructions given to identify a problem and solve it.

    • The programming language that is use to implement a program.

    Correct Answer
    A. Set of instruction steps to solve a given problem.
    Explanation
    An algorithm is a set of instruction steps that are designed to solve a specific problem. It is a systematic approach that provides a clear and logical sequence of operations to be followed in order to achieve the desired outcome. Algorithms are used in various fields such as mathematics, computer science, and problem-solving in general. They serve as a blueprint for solving complex problems by breaking them down into smaller, more manageable steps. By following the instructions provided by an algorithm, one can effectively solve a given problem.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The Top-down design is the method is being used to break down a problem into smaller parts.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The top-down design is indeed a method used to break down a problem into smaller parts. It involves starting with the overall problem and then breaking it down into subproblems or smaller components. This approach allows for a systematic and organized way of problem-solving, where the main problem is tackled by addressing its individual parts. By breaking down the problem, it becomes more manageable and easier to understand, leading to a more effective solution. Therefore, the statement "The Top-down design is the method being used to break down a problem into smaller parts" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The algorithm you develop to solve a problem or task can be divided into ________, _______. 

    Correct Answer
    three,steps
    Explanation
    The algorithm to solve a problem or task can be divided into three steps. These steps are the sequential actions or instructions that need to be followed in order to achieve the desired outcome. By breaking down the algorithm into three steps, it becomes easier to understand and implement the solution. Each step builds upon the previous one, leading to a systematic approach towards problem-solving.
