What is the difference between a high-level programming language and a low-level programming language?

It is high-level if the program must be processed before it can run, and low-level if the computer can execute it without additional processing. Python is a high level language but must be interpreted into machine code (binary) before it can be executed.

Semantic Error

This error is not something you can detect easily. Your program will run successfully in the sense that the computer will not generate any error messages. However, your program will not do the right thing. It will do something else. Specifically, it will do what you told it to do.

Parse Errors

____ happen when you make an error in the syntax of your program. Usually these errors can be traced back to missing punctuation characters, such as parenthesis, quotation marks, or commas

TypeErrors

_____ occur when you you try to combine two objects that are not compatible. For example you try to add together an integer and a string. Usually these can be isolated to lines that are using mathematical operators, and usually the line number given by the error message is an accurate indication of the line.

How many statements can appear in each block (the if and the else) in a conditional statement?

a block must contain at least one statement and can have many statements.

What is supplied to a function when it is called

Consider the following Python code. Note that line numbers are included on the left. 1. def pow(b, p): 2. y = b ** p 3. return y 4. 5. def square(x): 6. a = pow(x, 2) 7. return a 8. 9. n = 5 10. result = square(n) 11. print(result) Which of the following best reflects the order in which these lines of code are processed in Python?

1, 5, 9, 10, 6, 2, 3, 7, 11 Python starts at line 1, notices that it is a function definition and skips over all of the lines in the function definition until it finds a line that it no longer included in the function (line 5). It then notices line 5 is also a function definition and again skips over the function body to line 9. On line 10 it notices it has a function to execute, so it goes back and executes the body of that function. Notice that that function includes another function call. Finally, it will return to line 11 after the function square is complete.

A function that returns True or False

What is the difference between a tab ('\t') and a sequence of spaces?

A tab will line up items in a second column, regardless of how many characters were in the first column, while spaces will not.

Pseudocode

Algorithms are often written in a stylized version of English called ______. It is using simple instructions, understandable by a human and should be a series of simple instructions. Using the five building blocks of representations: creating variables, modifying variables, get input or produce output, check for true/false and make decisions, and (if needed) repeat a block of instructions.

How can you determine the type of a variable?

By using the type function Example: print(type(123)) print(type('this is a string'))

What will the following code print if x = 3, y = 5, and z = 2? if x < y and x < z: print("a") elif y < x and y < z: print("b") else: print("c")

Consider the following code: def square(x): runningtotal = 0 for counter in range(x): runningtotal = runningtotal + x return runningtotal What happens if you put the initialization of runningtotal (the line runningtotal = 0) inside the for loop as the first instruction in the loop?

The square function will return x instead of x * x. The variable runningtotal will be reset to 0 each time through the loop. However because this assignment happens as the first instruction, the next instruction in the loop will set it back to x. When the loop finishes, it will have the value x, which is what is returned.

What is printed by the following code snippet if itemCount contains a value of 10 and cost contains 80: if itemCount > 5 : discount = 0.8 totalCost = cost * discount print("Total discounted price is:", totalCost)

a for-loop or a while-loop

The following code contains an infinite loop. Which is the best explanation for why the loop does not terminate? n = 10 answer = 1 while n > 0: answer = answer + n n = n + 1 print(answer)

n starts at 10 and is incremented by 1 each time through the loop, so it will always be positive

Suppose that b is False and x is 0. Which of the following expressions evaluates to True?

not b or b
