Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of using counter controlled repetition in this scenario?

  • To import the necessary Java utilities
  • To calculate the average mark for the test (correct)
  • To determine the range of grades from 0 to 100
  • To input the grades one at a time

What does the variable 'counter' represent in this context?

  • The average mark for the test
  • The number of students in the class
  • The total sum of all the grades entered
  • A variable used to specify the number of times a set of statements should execute (correct)

What is the role of the variable 'total' in the pseudocode and program?

  • To accumulate the sum of a series of values, in this case, the grades entered (correct)
  • To store the number of grades entered
  • To control the number of repetitions
  • To store the average mark for the test

What would happen if 'counter' exceeds 10 in the counter controlled repetition?
