 An ability to find any bug and error with the usage of compiler error messages
 An ability to choose data types according to the data to be processed
 An analytical ability to use variables w .r .t. its scope and life lifetime to know how when a
variable will be created in memory and when destroyed from memory.
 An ability to know practically about the impact of the scope and lifetime of variables
 An ability to use relevant operators and expressions according to the nature of the problem
and precedence
 An ability to develop a simple/complex condition using suitable operators.
 An ability to differentiate, choose and use suitable and appropriate selection and repetition
statements for an efficient coding
