Back

Boolean

Front

All programming language allow you to create expression that can be evaluated as either true or false.

Back

Operand

Front

is the part of a computer instruction that specifies data that is to be operating on or manipulated , by extension, and the data itself. Basically, a computer instruction describes an operation or operands on which the operation is to be performed.

Back

constant

Front

A value that does not change

Front

debugging process where you pretend that you are the computer executing a program

Back

Selection

Front

A generic term for a type of programming statement (usually an if-statement) that uses a Boolean condition to determine, or select, whether or not to run a certain block of statements.

Back

A bit is the single unit of information in a computer, typically represented as a 0 or 1.

Back

computer

Front

Electronic device that receives data, processes data, stores data, and produces a result.

Back

Secondary storage

Front

Storage that is remote to the CPU and permanently holds data, even when the PC is turned off, such as a hard drive.

Back

Flash Memory

Front

a kind of memory that retains data in the absence of a power supply

Back

Variable

Front

A symbol used to represent a quantity that can change
