  • My Answer: A
  • Correct Answer: D
  • Explanation: I chose A bc/ I had misunderstood the code given and I need to practice on the meaning of the forloops provided. However, I now understand that I need to pay more close attention to the for loops.

  • My Answer: D
  • Correct Answer: B
  • Explanation: I chose D bc/ I thought about if and then statements and how the “list” can help in achieving any code written. Now I understand that “number” is best for data type of “age variable”. Since, “number” would differentiate each person’s data and create more organization.

  • My Answer: B and D
  • Correct Answer: C and D
  • Explanation: I chose B and D bc/ I thought having so the biggest number in different orders would make the code segment to not work.

Question 18:

image

  • My Answer: A
  • Correct Answer: C
  • Explanantion: I chose A bc/ I thought that with negative numbers list would show that the code doesn’t work as intended by no positive values entered. However, now I know that the correct answer is C bc/ not all of the numbers in the list are positive.

  • My Ans: A
  • Correct Ans: D
  • Explanation: I thought that the answer is A bc/ I thought that by flipping the coin once would be the probability between heads and tails similiar. However, now I know that the answer is involving the heads to 2 because there is only one increment increase for the heads.

Question 34:

image

  • My Ans: C
  • Correct Ans: B
  • Explanation: I chose answer C bc/ I thought that binary search would require more time, therefore the heuristic approach help to speed the process.

  • My Ans: A
  • Correct Ans: D
  • Explanation: I chose A bc/ it is possible if the other websites who aren’t affialted with the artist would have ads for the artist. However, the user wouldn’t be violating DMCA because they are only downloading and not using the media for any other form.

  • My Ans: D
  • Correct Ans: C
  • Explanation: I chose D bc/ I was thinking about the number of bits required that might be near the 75 to 100 range, however I miscalculated. The right answer is 7 as 2^7 is 128 which is closer to 100 than 256(2^8).

Question 44:

image

  • My Ans: B
  • Correct Ans: D
  • Explanation: I chose B bc/ I thought the answer would need to require the generalization of the examples given. However, the question says “similiar, not identitcal” which goes against with the answer that I chose. Answer D shows the trend of the generalization of the examples in the question.
