 1. An Algorithm is just a series of instructions that tells the computer what to do.

  FALSE

  TRUE

 2. Abstraction is focusing on every single detail of the problem (e.g. the game) and not just on the general ones.

  TRUE

  FALSE

 3. Decomposition is only a computational concept for absolute beginners. A big problem should never be broken down into smaller problems.

  FALSE

  TRUE

 4. The three programming constructs are: sequence, selection and iteration where iteration is another word for ________structrues.

  variables

  loops

  select random integers within a given range.

  randomly display either -100 or 100 on the screen

  None of the above

  produce a score maximum value of 100 or -100. Not both.

 7. IF and else check for a ___________. If x position > 200 the code _____________ will be executed.
