1. All of the above. Which of the following is true?

Pseudocode is used to describe an algorithm.

Pseudocode is not an actual computer programming lan-

guage.

Pseudocode is used to describe executable statements

that will eventually be translated by the programmer into a
program.

All of the above.

2. Indefinite repeti- Sentinel-controlled repetition is also known as:

tion.
Definite repetition.
Indefinite repetition.

ty.
Activity diagrams normally show the Java code that imple-
ments the activity.

Like pseudocode, activity diagrams help programmers de-

velop and represent algorithms.

The arrows in the activity diagram represent transitions,

which indicate the order in which the actions represented
by the action states occur.

4. Declaration Which of the following is not a control structure:

structure.
Sequence structure.

operand is the re- operator (?:) is false?
sult value if the
condition evalu- The conditional operator is a ternary operator, meaning
ates to false. that it takes three operands.

The first operand is a boolean expression.

The second operand is the result value if the condition

evaluates to false.

The second operand is the result value if the condition

evaluates to true.

6. Which of the following statements is false? (please check

the answer)

You should not call methods from constructors.

Nested if statements can be useful for validating values.

Logical operators can express nested if statements more

concisely.

One problem with calling methods from constructors is

that it can lead to duplicate validation code.

7. if...else Which of the following is a double-selection control state-

ment?

Do...while
