PT1420 - Unit 2 Homework and Lab Assignment
Unit 2 Assignment 1: Homework (material from Chapter 2of your text book)
1.) What is pseudocode? A.) Pseudocode is when you pre write a program in your own type of language to lay it out
2.) Computer programs typically perform what 3 steps. A.)Input, Process, Output.
3.) What 2 things must you normally specify in a variable declaration. A.)Type, Identifier.
4.) Write assignment statements that perform the following operations with the variables a, b, and c:
a. Adds 2 to a and stores the result in b// Ans.)B = 2 + A
b. Multiples b times 4 and stores the result in a //Ans.)A = B * 4
c. Divides a by 3.14 and stores the result in b//Ans.)B = A / 3.14
d. Subtracts 8 from b and stores the result in a//Ans.) A = B – 8
5.) Write the pseudocode for a program that will determine the average miles per gallon a car gets. (Inputs should be miles driven and gallons of gas used)
Ans.) Input: How many miles have you driven?, How many gallons of gas did you have?
Process: Divide miles by gas to get average.
Output: Display average miles per gallon.
