  big error / deleted

  sequence and pattern / repeated

  loop / ignored

  idea / left out

 5. Analyse the following code. Can you spot and point out the error? 
a=8
b=9
total=a+b+c
print(total)

  The value of a cannot be 8

  The value of b is 9, which is too high

  There is no value for 'c' and yet the total requires it to be there for the sum.

  The total should be a+b+c+d
