SHORT ANSWER

1. In the Toolbox, in which group is the Textbox tool located?

• Answer: The TextBox tool is located in the Common Controls group.
2. What two things does a variable declaration specify about a variable?
• Answer: A variable declaration specifies the variable’s name and data type.

3. Give an example of a programming statement that uses string concatenation.

• Answer: string fullName = "Ali" + " " + "Axmed";
4. What is the term used for a number that is written into a program’s code?
• Answer: The term is literal.
5. Write a programming statement that assigns an integer literal to a variable.
• Answer: Int number = 10;
// 10 is the integer literal assigned to the variable ‘number’
6. What are the values on the right and left of an operator called?
• Answer: The values on the right and left of an operator are called operands.
7. What are the short words that are used in assembly language called?
• Answer: The short words used in assembly language are called mnemonics.
8. What is the difference between a compiler and an interpreter?
• Answer:
A compiler: translates the entire source code of a program into machine code
(or intermediate code) at once, creating a separate executable file.
An interpreter: translates and executes the source code line by line at
runtime, without creating a separate executable file

9. What type of software controls the internal operations of the computer’s hardware?
• Answer: The Operating System (OS).
10. What statement would you write to display Good Afternoon in a message box?
• Answer: MessageBox.Show(“Good Afternoon”);
11. What statement would you write to display your name in a message box?
• Answer: MessageBox.Show(“Your Name”);
// Replace “Your Name” with your actual name.
12. Briefly describe how the AND operator works.
• Answer:
Int age = 25;
Bool hasID = true;

If (age >= 18 && hasID)

{
Console.WriteLine(“You are allowed to enter.”);
}
Else
{
Console.WriteLine(“You are not allowed to enter.”);
}
13. Briefly describe how the OR operator works.
• Answer:
Int age = 25;
Bool hasID = true;

If (age >= 18 || hasID)

{
Console.WriteLine(“You are allowed to enter.”);
}
Else
{
Console.WriteLine(“You are not allowed to enter.”);
}
14. What are the three basic methods of control used in designing structured algorithms?
• Answer: The three methods are sequence, selection (decision), and iteration
(looping).
15. Define the following:
a. An algorithm: is a set of well-defined, logical steps that must be taken to perform a
task.
b. Pseudocode: An algorithm that is written out in plain English is called pseudocode
c. Flowchart: a diagram that graphically depicts the steps of an algorithm
