What is the primary purpose of a compiler in a programming language?
To convert the English-Like code used by programming languages into binary (1's and 0's) that can be understood by the computer.
To check the semantics (What to do) of the program are correct.
To check there are no syntax errors in the program before executing.
To supply syntactically correct code to the code definition window of the Integrated Development Environment being used.
To automatically fix simple errors within your code.
What is the purpose of putting the Console.ReadLine(); statement at the end of your program?
To tell the compiler there were no build errors when compiling.
To stop the program from quickly terminating after executing all lines of code and allow the user to see the output of the program.
To read the next line of input from the user at run-time.
To tell C# your program is a console program and not a Windows Forms application
To tell the user the console has just read a line of code that you inputted.
What is the difference between Psuedocode and an algorithm?
Psuedocode is a systematic logical approach used to solve problems in a computer while an Algorithm is the statement in plain English which may be translated later into a programming language (program).
An algorithm is a systematic logical approach used to solve problems in a computer while Pseudocode is used as planning comments within your program for code that you will later program.
An algorithm is a systematic logical approach used to solve problems in a computer while Pseudocode is the statement in plain English which may be translated later into a programming language (program).
An algorithm is a systematic logical approach used to solve problems in a computer while Pseudocode is code that can be used in all programming languages as it is cross-platform.
An algorithm is a systematic logical approach used to solve problems in a computer while Pseudocode is used a stub within a block of code to tell the compiler not to execute this code.
What does a stub refer to when coding a program?
A placeholder block of code for code yet to be programmed.
A program that is coded (often through a loop) to display the image of a tree stump using ASCII characters.
A block of code that the compiler will ignore.
A stub is a somewhat casual term describing a computer network, or part of an internetwork, with no knowledge of other networks
A stub is a computer file within software applications that appears to be on disk and immediately available for use, but is actually held either in part or entirely on a different storage medium.

What is ASCII?
As Computers CAN only understand numbers, an ASCII code is the numerical representation of a character such as 'a' or '@' or an action of some sort.
As computers CANNOT understand numbers, an ASCII character is a character used to represent a number such as 01000001.
A super-computing program run by the National Nuclear Security Administration, in order to simulate, test, and maintain the United States nuclear stockpile.
A computer process used to process code into segment, data segment, heap, stack segment before it resides in the computers RAM.
A high level programming language that was highly popular in the 1980's.
What is a reserved word within a programming language?
A word or variable deceleration that has been used by another programmer in the past that cannot be used due to copyright.
Words such as case, catch, else, enum etc.
A word or variable that cannot be used outside of a function due to its protection level.
A variable that has already been named and cannot be renamed until re-initialised.
A word in a programming language which has a fixed meaning and cannot be redefined by the programmer or used as a variable deceleration.
What is a variable within a programming language?
A variable is a value with a set condition that cannot change once initialised or a value has been set.
A variable is a value that is not fixed and can change, depending on conditions or on information passed to the program.
A variable is a value that can change when passing information between functions or procedures.
A variable is the actual value that is being passed to the program.
A variable is a symbol for a number we do not yet know the value of.
A new programmer has created a C# Console program to allow the user to input a number and then display the number the user has input. However, he has received the below error after the user input the number 2.555.
An unhandled exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in mscorlib.dll
Inspect the below line of code and select why this error has occurred?
public static int userNumber = 0;
static void Main(string[] args)
{
userNumber = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Console.WriteLine(userNumber);
Console.ReadLine();
}
static void Main(string[] args)
{
userNumber = int.Parse(Console.ReadLine());
Console.WriteLine(userNumber);
Console.ReadLine();
}
The program is expecting a whole number to be input by the user, but a value with a decimal has been entered instead.
The userNumber variable has not been initialised.
Input from the user is a string value and therefore cannot be used in this way to display a number value.
UserNumber is not declared.
UserNumber is trying to divide by 0 which is mathematically impossible.
Will the below code compile? Why or why not?
bool showFormYesNo == true;
static void Main(string[] args)
{
if (showFormYesNo = true)
{
showForm();
}
}
No. showFormYesNo is being assigned a value and therefore needs to be a single =
The if statement is a conditional statement and needs to be a double =.
No. showFormYesNo is declared outside of main and cannot be used within the method due to its protection level.
Yes. showFormYesNo is being assigned a value and correctly uses double =
The if statement is a conditional statement and correct uses single =.
No. static void Main(string[] args) should be set to static void Main(Bool[] args) to compile.
No. showForm() does not pass any arguments. It needs to pass showFormYesNo to compile.

Parsing is the process of:
Splitting a value into segments or parts
