Computer Science

a document that sets out the tests that will be carried out during testing

an error where the code has been structured incorrectly and the syntax rules haven’t been followed

an error where the program will run, but won’t do what the programmer expected

Programming project: selection II

Using selection when developing programs

Arithmetic operators

Relational operators

Logical operators

Nested selection

Good programming practices

Selection challenge

Programming project: selection I

In this unit pupils will explore the benefits of good programing practices and why subroutines are used in programs. They will create conditions in programs which use arithmetic, relational and logical expressions. They will develop their understanding of selection and explore nested selection.

A {{}} error happens when the program has incorrect syntax and will not run.

values that should be accepted as they are valid

values that should not be accepted and will cause an error

values that are at the edge of being valid
