Instructions
All questions carry equal marks
Answer any two exercises
For question 2 and 3 make sure you write down the complete algorithmic folder (principle
of resolution, working environment, algorithm)
For question 1, make sure you show on your paper, the execution of algorithm.
General Presentation of your work is important as well as the proper indentation of your
algorithms.

Question 1 : 10marks

Consider the algorithm below :

a) Define the term: Algorithm 1mark


b) Give four (4) characteristics of a good algorithm 1mark
c) List all the variables used by this algorithm and precise their data type. 1,5mark
d) Give an example of initialisation instruction. 0.5mark
e) Give the value of each variable at the end of execution of the algorithm above. 4marks
f) Draw the corresponding flowchart diagram 2marks

NB : use the table to present all the steps of your calculation.

Question 2:( 3+2+5 i.e. 3 marks for working principle, 2 for working environment, 5 for the
algorithm)

A triangle can be classified based on the lengths of its sides as equilateral, isosceles or
scalene. All 3 sides of an equilateral triangle have the same length. An isosceles triangle has
two sides that are the same length, and a third side that is a different length. If all of the sides
have different lengths then the triangle is scalene. Write an algorithm that reads the lengths of
3 sides of a triangle from the user. Display a message indicating the type of the triangle.

Question 3 : Odd or Even ( 3+2+5 marks)

Write an algorithm that reads an integer from the user. Then your algorithm should display a
message indicating whether the integer is even or odd.
