A list box or combo box's index numbering starts at this value:
Nested
A loop that is inside another loop is called a ____ loop.
String
An input box returns the value entered by the user as this:
Loop or repetition structure
Causes one or more statements to repeat.
List boxes (control)
Displays a list of items and allows the user to select an item from the list.
Infinite
Is a loop does not have a way of stopping, it is called an ____.
Running total
One of the following is a sum of numbers that accumulates with each iteration of a loop:
Input Boxes
Provides a simple way to gather input without placing a text box on a form.
Body of the loop
The Do While statement marks the beginning of a Do While loop, and the Loop statement marks the end. The statements between these are known as:
Text
This combo box property will contain the user's text input or the item selected from the list:
Combo box
This control has a rectangular area that functions like a text box:
cbo
This is the prefix that we use for combo box names:
Items.Remove
This method erases one item from a list box:
SelectedIndex
This property holds the index of the selected item in a list box:
Pretest
This type of loop evaluates its test expression before each iteration:
For...next
This type of loop is ideal for situations that require a counter because it is specifically designed to initialize, test, and increment a counter variable:
Scroll bar
Visual Basic automatically adds this to a list box when it contains more items than can be displayed:
Multicolumn
When this ListBox control's property is set to True, it causes the ListBox control to display its list in multiple columns:
Dim rand As New Random(25)
Which of the following statements creates a Random object and initializes the sequence of random numbers with the seed value 25:
Simple combo box
With this style of combo box, the list of items does not drop down, but is always displayed:
InputBox
You display input boxes with this function:
Multiply the number of iterations of all the loops
You do this to get the total number of iterations of a nested loop:
Pmt
function returns the periodic payment amount for a loan.
PPmt
function returns the principal payment for a specific period on a loan.
IPmt
function returns the required interest payment for a specific period on a loan.
Counter
is a variable that is regularly incremented or decremented each time a loop iterates.
Posttest
loop evaluates its test expression after each iteration.
NextDouble
method generates a random floating-point value.
Next
method generates a random integer.
Random
object has methods that can generate a sequence of random numbers.
Exit Do
statement, when placed inside the body of a Do While loop, stops the execution of the loop and causes the program to jump to the statement immediately following the loop.
