The Instructions written in 0s and 1s are called source code.
True or False
False
It is also called executables that consist of binary instructions

Machine language programs
During this phase of Program Development Cycle, we check whether the code written is solving the specified problem or not.
System Design
Documentation and Maintenance
Testing and Debugging
Coding
Testing and Debugging
Syntax error and Logical error are collectively known as Bugs.
True or False
True
Documentation phase ends by writing a manual that provides an overview of the program’s functionality, tutorials for the beginner, in-depth explanations of major program features, reference documentation of all program commands and a thorough description of the error messages generated by the program.
True or False
True
Pseudocode is different from algorithm by the fact that they are expressed in program language like constructs.
True or False
True
Computer hardware can understand only the high-level languages
True
False
False
It is a sequence of instructions written to perform a specified task for a computer

Computer Program
The programs created using low-level language runs on different machines with little change or no change at all.
True
False
False
The programmer runs a program that multiplies two numbers. He inputted 10 and 5 as the numbers. But on the screen the result is 5, which error do you think is committed by the programmer?
semantic error
syntax error
run-time error
logical error
logical error
In Program Development Cycle, when you analyze requirements you include already selecting the appropriate programming language to be used in creating the program.
True
False
False. Design phase
A way of translating source code in which each statement is translated individually and executed immediately after translation
Linker
Interpreter
Compiler
Executor
Interpreter
Each class of computer has its own particular machine language
True or False
True
Computer cannot understand mnemonics in assembly language, thus a translator is used called Assembler.
True or False
True
During this phase of Program Development Cycle, it involves the collection of information and the definition of the characteristics or features of the desired system.

The tool you use should be a compiler and/or an interpreter, depending on the language you’re working with and your needs.
True or False
True
Which of the following is not an advantage of high-level language?
It can be run on a variety of computer types.
It uses English-like instructions which can be understood by the users.
It requires very less time for their execution.
It can find errors which you can easily modify
It requires very less time for their execution.
It is a written detailed description of the programming cycle and specific facts about the program. Also, it includes necessary instructions on the use and maintenance of the program/software (product).
