A game program contains the following code to update three score variables, health, food, and knowledge. The maximum values for the three variables are 100, 80, and 25, respectively. health ←← health + 10 IF(health > 100) { health ←← 100 } food ←← food + 1 IF(food > 80) { food ←← 80 } knowledge ←← knowledge + 5 IF(knowledge > 25) { knowledge ←← 25 } The game program's author would like to write a procedure that could be used to update any variable in the game (myScore) that has a maximum value (myLimit) by a given amount (myAmount). A correct call of the procedure is shown below. myScore ←← updateScore(myScore, myAmount, myLimit) Which of the following is a correct implementation of updateScore ? A PROCEDURE updateScore(score, amount, limit) { score ←← score + amount IF (score > limit) { score ←← limit } } B PROCEDURE updateScore(score, amount, limit) { score ←← score + amount IF(score > amount) { score ←← limit } RETURN(limit) } C PROCEDURE updateScore(score, amount, limit) { score ←← score + amount IF(score > limit) { score ←← limit } RETURN(score) } D PROCEDURE updateScore(score, amount, limit) { IF(score = health) { score ←← score + 10 } IF(score = food) { score ←← score + 1 } IF(score = knowledge) { score ←← score + 5 } IF(score > limit) { score ←← limit } }

C PROCEDURE updateScore(score, amount, limit) { score ←← score + amount IF(score > limit) { score ←← limit } RETURN(score) }

Which of the following are benefits of procedural abstraction? Select two answers. A Procedural abstraction prevents programmers from accidentally using the intellectual property of other programmers. B Procedural abstraction eliminates the need for programmers to document their code. C Procedural abstraction makes it easier for people to read computer programs.

C Procedural abstraction makes it easier for people to read computer programs. D Procedural abstraction provides an opportunity to give a name to a block of code that describes the purpose of the code block.

A computer program contains code in several places that asks a user to enter an integer within a specified range of values. The code repeats the input request if the value that the user enters is not within the specified range. A programmer would like to create a procedure that will generalize this functionality and can be used throughout the program. The correct use of the procedure is shown below, where min is the least acceptable value, max is the greatest acceptable value, and promptString is the string that should be printed to prompt the user enter a value. inputVal ←← getRange(min, max, promptString) Which of the following is a correct implementation of the getRange procedure? A PROCEDURE getRange(min, max, promptString) { DISPLAY(promptString) RETURN(INPUT()) } B PROCEDURE getRange(min, max, promptString) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() RETURN(x) } C PROCEDURE getRange(min, max, promptString) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() REPEAT UNTIL(x ≥ min AND x ≤ max) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() } } D PROCEDURE getRange(min, max, promptString) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() REPEAT UNTIL(x ≥ min AND x ≤ max) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() } RETURN(x) }

D PROCEDURE getRange(min, max, promptString) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() REPEAT UNTIL(x ≥ min AND x ≤ max) { DISPLAY(promptString) x ←← INPUT() } RETURN(x) }

A student's overall course grade in a certain class is based on the student's scores on individual assignments. The course grade is calculated by dropping the student's lowest individual assignment score and averaging the remaining scores. For example, if a particular student has individual assignment scores of 85, 75, 90, and 95, the lowest score (75) is dropped. The calculated course grade is (85+90+95)/3=90(85+90+95)/3=90. A programmer is writing a program to calculate a student's course grade using the process described. The programmer has the following procedures available. Procedure Call(min/sum (numList)) Explanation Min (numList)Returns the minimum value in the list numListSum (numList)Returns the sum of the values in the list numList The student's individual assignment scores are stored in the list scores. Which of the following can be used to calculate a student's course grade and store the result in the variable finalGrade? A finalGrade ←← Sum (scores) / LENGTH (scores) finalGrade ←← finalGrade - Min (scores) B finalGrade ←← Sum (scores) / (LENGTH (scores) - 1) finalGrade ←← finalGrade - Min (scores) C finalGrade ←← Sum (scores) - Min (scores) finalGrade ←← finalGrade / LENGTH (scores) D finalGrade ←← Sum (scores) - Min (scores) finalGrade ←← finalGrade / (LENGTH (scores) - 1)

D finalGrade ←← Sum (scores) - Min (scores) finalGrade ←← finalGrade / (LENGTH (scores) - 1)

Consider two lists of numbers called list1 and list2. A programmer wants to determine how many different values appear in both lists. For example, if list1 contains [10, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60] and list2 contains [20, 20, 40, 60, 80], then there are three different values that appear in both lists (20, 40, and 60). The programmer has the following procedures available. Procedure Call(something()) ExplanationCombine (myList1, myList2)This procedure creates a new list containing the elements from myList1 ​followed by the entries from myList2. The resulting list is returned. For example, if myList1 contains [2, 4, 6] and myList2 contains [1, 5], the procedure will return the list [2, 4, 6, 1, 5].RemoveAllDups (myList)This procedure creates a new list containing the elements of myList with any duplicate values removed. The resulting list is returned. For example, if myList contains [3, 2, 4, 2, 2, 5, 6, 4], the procedure will return the list [3, 2, 4, 5, 6]. Which of the following can be used to assign the intended value to count ? A bothList ←← Combine (list1, list2) uniqueList ←← RemoveAllDups (bothList) count ←← LENGTH (bothList) - LENGTH (uniqueList) B newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) count ←← LENGTH (list1) + LENGTH (list2) - LENGTH (bothList) C newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) count ←← LENGTH (newList1) + LENGTH (newList2) - LENGTH (bothList) D newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) uniqueList ←← RemoveAllDups (bothList) count ←← LENGTH (bothList) - LENGTH (uniqueList)

D newList1 ←← RemoveAllDups (list1) newList2 ←← RemoveAllDups (list2) bothList ←← Combine (newList1, newList2) uniqueList ←← RemoveAllDups (bothList) count ←← LENGTH (bothList) - LENGTH (uniqueList)
