17
Q

It is a graphical (rather than purely textual) user interface to a computer

A

GUI or Graphical User Interface

18
Q

It is a computer programming language that isn’t limited by the computer, designed for a specific job, and is easier to understand. It is more like human language and less like machine language.

A

high-level language

19
Q

It is a program that executes instructions written in a high-level language

A

Interpreter

20
Q

It is a software program that is designed to help programmers and developers build software.

A

IDE or Integrated Development Environment

21
Q

It describes the process of a software program or script repeats the same instructions or processes the same information over and over until receiving the order to stop.

A

Loop

22
Q

It defines a lack of value

A

Null

23
Q

It is a programming language model organized around “objects” rather than “actions” and data rather than logic. Historically, a program has been viewed as a logical procedure that takes input

A

Object-oriented programming (OOP)

24
Q

It is someone who writes computer program. They write, test, and maintain programs or software that tells the computer what to do.

A

Programmer

25
Q

A vocabulary and set of grammatical rules (syntax) for instructing a computer to perform specific tasks.

A

Programming Language

26
Q

It is a collection of binary digits or bits that the computer reads and interprets. They are the only languages understood by computers.

A

Machine language

27
Q

It use keywords and symbols, much like English, to form a programming language but at the same time introduce a new problem.

A

Assembly languages

28
Q

It allow us to write computer code using instructions resembling everyday spoken language which are then translated into machine language to be executed.

A

High-level languages

29
Q

It consists of the programming statements that are created by a programmer with a text editor or a visual programming tool and then saved in a file.

A

Source code

30
Q

(sometimes known as modular programming) is a subset of procedural programming that enforces a logical structure on the program being written to make it more efficient and easier to understand and modify.

A

Structured programming

31
Q

It is a location capable of storing temporary data within a program.

A

Variable
