- 1. Multiple Choice
Which code segment results in "true" being returned if a number is even? Replace "MISSING CONDITION" with the correct code segment.
function isEven(num){
if(MISSING CONDITION){
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
num % 2 == 0;
num % 0 == 2;
num % 1 == 0;
num % 1 == 2;
- 2. Multiple Choice
Here is the API for a robot library.
// moves the robot forward
function moveForward();
// turns the robot to the left
function rotateLeft();
// turns the robot to the right
function rotateRight();
// checks if a robot can move in any direction
// direction {string} - the direction to be checked
// return {Boolean} - true if the robot can move in that direction, otherwise returns false
function canMove(direction);
Which code segment will guarantee that the robot makes it to the gray square without hitting a wall or a barrier (black square)?
- 3. Multiple Choice
What will be printed to the console after this program runs?
var numbers = [2, 5, 3, 1, 6]
function changeNums(numList, addNum, subtractNum){
for(var i=0; i<numList.length; i++){
if(numList[i] % 3 == 0){
numList[i] = numList[i] + addNum;
} else {
numList[i] = numList[i] - subtractNum;
}
}
}
changeNums(numbers, 3, 2);
console.log(numbers);
[2, 5, 3, 1, 6]
[0, 3, 6, -1, 9]
[-1, 2, 6, -2, 8]
[5, 2, 6, 3, 9]
- 4. Multiple Choice
Which function calls would provide the most helpful test of this function?
Remember: With tests, you are attempting to figure out all the possible ways the function could be broken.
function findMin(num1, num2){
if(num1 < num2){
return num1;
} else {
return num2;
}
}
findMin(-1, 0)
findMin(2,4)
findMin(5,10)
findMin(5,3)
findMin(7,2)
findMin(5,1)
findMin(1,1)
findMin(-2,2)
findMin(0,3)
findMin(-1,1)
findMin(1,-1)
findMin(1,1)
- 5. Multiple Choice
You have imported a library with the birthMonth() function. Based on the API, how many strings are inputed to calculate the birth month?
// calculate birth month based on the day of the month, day of the week, and the birth year
// dayMonth {number} - a day of a month from 1 to 31
// dayWeek {string} - the name of the day of the week
// year {number} - the birth year
// return {string} - the month you were born
BirthdayLibrary.birthMonth(dayMonth, dayWeek, year);

Which of the following is NOT true about procedural abstraction?
Procedural abstraction improves code readability
Procedural abstraction manages complexity by allowing for code reuse
Procedural abstraction improves the speed at which a program executes
Procedural abstraction allows a solution to a large problem to be based on the solution of smaller subproblems

This function checks if a character is a vowel. If it is, it returns true. Otherwise, it returns false.
Where should return false; be written in the code?
function checkVowel(character){
var vowels = ["a", "e", "i", "o", "u"];
for(var i=0; i<vowels.length; i++){
if(vowels[i] == character){
return true;
OPTION A
}
OPTION B
}
OPTION C
}
OPTION D

- 10. Multiple Choice
This function finds the minimum number in a list. What should <MISSING CODE SEGMENT> be replaced with in order for this function to operate as expected?
function min(numList){
var min = numList[0];
for(var i=0; i<numList.length; i++){
if(numList[i] < min){
<MISSING CODE SEGMENT>
}
}
return min;
}
numList[i] = min;
min = numList[i];
min = numList;
numList = min;
