  • Q2
    How can you achieve structured programming in the design stage?
    By designing the user interface
    By adding 1 big algorithm
    By decomposing the problem into smaller sub-problems
    By declaring variables and validation

  • Q3
    What is the main benefit of structured programming?
    You can use advanced programming techniques
    You can program without functions and procedures
    The whole program can be understood better
    You can use selection and iteration

  • Q4
    What is another benefit of structured programming?
    Better use of selection and iteration
    Better use of global variables
    Better use of advanced programming techniques
    It's more efficient as subroutines will only be called when they're needed

  • Q5
    Explain how abstraction helps with structured programming?
    Decomposes the problem into smaller sub-problems
    Subroutines will only be called when they're needed
    Listing the variables to avoid global variables
    Focus on the relevant details that will be used for the modules
    30s
    3.2.11
  • Q6
    What will structured programming avoid the use of?
    Local variables
    Global variables
    Global and local variables
    Constants

    3.2.11
  • Q7
    Why is it beneficial to avoid global variables?
    They store data, but the variable cannot change
    They can only be see inside the modules
    They're difficult to track
    They can not store data
    30s

  • Q8
    What is an alternative method to structure programming?
    Sequential Programming
    Object Orientated Programming
    Functional Programming
    Object Approach Programming
    30s
  • Q9
    Which of these needs to be agreed across collaborative teams using structured programming?
    Whether to use flowcharts of psuedocode
    The name of the project
    The length of the code
    Subroutine and variable names
    45s
  • Q10
    Why is it important to agree on subroutine and variable names in collaborative work?
    Because they will interact once the program is combined
    To ensure that the slower coders keep up
    To make it look nicer
    To make sure enough time is spent planning
