  • Q5
    How does decomposition help in problem-solving?
    It makes the problem more complex and harder to solve
    It only focuses on one small aspect of the problem
    It is not a helpful problem-solving strategy
    It allows you to tackle each smaller part separately and then combine solutions to solve the larger problem.

  • Q6
    Why is it important for success criteria to be measurable?
    Measurement is unnecessary for setting goals.
    Measurable criteria allow progress to be tracked and evaluated.
    Unmeasurable criteria make goals more achievable.
    Measurable criteria stops you reaching your goal.

  • Q12
    What is the purpose of using SetTimeout code block in App Lab?
    To prevent errors from occurring in the program
    To introduce a delay in executing code to control the flow of the program
    To speed up the execution of code for better performance
    To display messages to the user immediately
