Subject : it-skills
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Test each module in isolation and test the modules all together and make sure every line of code is tested.






2. All modules must be _____ and they can call other modules.

4. Less than - equal to - not equal to etc. are examples of _________






5. Deploy the software and fix bugs and modify to satisfy changing requirements.






6. _______ boolean expressions are formed by combining boolean expressions using the boolean operators (NOT - AND- OR).






7. Modules can be called anywhere in the program - but must be done after their ______.






8. In ______ decision making when the first decision must evaluate to true before the successive (next) decisions are even considered for evaluation. One decision is made inside another. The outer decisions must evaluate to true before inner decisions a






9. The order of operations of the boolean operators from first to last is: NOT - AND - _____






10. Loops that never end because the stopping/exit condition is never met.






11. The two types of parameters are: ______ and Actual.






12. True and False are the two _____ constants






13. Breaking things into modules.






14. The order of operations from first to last are ___ - (* / DIV MOD AND) - (+ - OR) - (< > = <= >= <>)






15. To test that the subprograms are integrated into the program correctly. That they interact with one another correctly - passing the required information to and from one another.






16. _______ design starts with high level idea of a solution and successively refine it. It favors hierarchial organization.






17. A parameter value that is used in a function call or in a message sent to an object.






18. An ____ statement evaluates a Boolean expression. The code will only be executed when the expression evaluates to true.






19. ______ Decision Making checks if a particular condition is true.






20. In Pascal Programs are executed one ______ at a time.






21. Modulars are ________ from one another






22. Local variables have _______ kind of scope






23. A ______ statement is generally used when the number of times that the loop executes is not known in advance. The loop executes as long as the boolean expression is true.






24. Parameters act like _____ variables within a module






25. ________ design is the key to the ability to create large systems.






26. Modules are defined in the ______ part of a program - under the constant.






27. Refers to the execution of a sequence of statements in the order in which they appear so that each statement is executed exactly once.






28. An ______ statement evaluates a Boolean expression. A different code will be executed if the expression evaluates to true (the body of the if) than if the expression evaluates to false (the body of the else).






29. A method of passing a variable to a program by making a copy of the variable and giving it to the called program.






30. An _____ statement allows the programmer to specify the statement selected for execution when the expression is true. It also indicates an alternative statement when the expression is false.






31. <> is the symbol for ___ equal to






32. The testing of the complete program to determine the overall system functions.






33. This is where the module is invoked or called.






34. A body of ______ consists of multiple statements. The statements do have a semicolon - including the end (from the begin and end).






35. Typically a variable that determines whether or not the loop executes or not.






36. For an ____ Boolean Expression to be true the Boolean expressions must evaluate to true before the entire expression is true. If any expression is false then whole expression evaluates to false.






37. A nested decision making statement can also have a ____ in the inner statement.






38. A ________ statement is what follows the 'then' in an (if-then statement) and precedes the first semi-colon.






39. A _________ statement is what follows the 'then' in an (if-then statement) and is enclosed within the begin-end pair.






40. A ______ operand cannot be applied to an AND boolean operator






41. The stucture of a procedure: Heading - ______ - Statement






42. Some logical operators in Pascal are: OR - AND - ___ - NOT - NAND - NOR






43. Break system into manageable units or modules.






44. A method of passing a variable to a program by making a copy of the variable and giving it to the called program.






45. For an ____ Boolean Expression to be true if any Boolean expression evaluates to true then the entire expression evaluates to true.






46. Variable When a variable is declared under a procedure it is a _____ variable?






47. An item declared within a procedure or function is not accessible outside that procedure or function.






48. The two types of parameters that can be implemented with PASCAL are: _______ and Functions.






49. Where the statements for the module are coded.






50. It makes possible the selection of one of a number of alternative actions - which is implemented by an IF statement.
