2-MARK QUESTIONS

1. What are the building block of algorithm?


As algorithm is a part of the blue-print or plan for the computer program. An algorithm is
constructed using following blocks.
• Statements
• States
• Control flow
• Function
Control Flow Control flow which is also stated as flow of control, determines what section of
code is to run in program at a given time.
There are three types of flows, they are 1. Sequential control flow 2. Selection or Conditional
control flow 3. Looping or repetition control flow

2. Write an algorithm to find minimum of three numbers


Step 1: Start
Step 2: Declare variables a,b and c.
Step 3: Read variables a,b and c.
Step 4: If a<b
If a<c
Display a is the largest number.
Else
Display c is the largest number.
Else
If b<c
Display b is the largest number.
Else
Display c is the greatest number.
Step 5: Stop

3. Define flowchart and write the advantage of flow chart.


Flow Charts
A Flowchart is a diagram that graphically represents the structure of the system, the flow of
steps in a process, algorithm, or the sequence of steps and decisions for execution a process or
solution a problem.
Advantages of Flowchart
Communication: Flowcharts are better way of communicating the logic of the system.
Effective Analysis:
With the help of flowchart, a problem can be analyzed in more effective way.
Proper Documentation:
Flowcharts are used for good program documentation, which is needed for various purposes.
Efficient Coding :
The flowcharts act as a guide or blue print during the system analysis and program
development phase.
Systematic Testing and Debugging :
The flowchart helps in testing and debugging the program
Efficient Program Maintenance:
The maintenance of operating program becomes easy with the help of flowchart. It helps the
programmer to put efforts more efficiently on that part.
4. What is Pseudo code?
Pseudo –False.
Code- Set of Instructions.
Pseudo code means a short, readable set of instructions written in English to explain an
algorithm.
Example:
Pseudocode: To find sum of two numbers
READ num1,num2
sum=num1+num2
PRINT sum
5. Write the pseudocode to calculate the sum and product of two numbers and display
it.
Pseudocode: To find sum of two numbers
READ num1,num2
sum=num1+num2
PRINT sum
Pseudocode: To find product of two numbers
READ num1,num2
multiple=num1+num2
PRINT multiple
