what are corner cases?
provide an example
cases on the border of a statement
e.g. if input <= 6 then we would test 6 because it is on the border, i.e. it is a corner case
what is an input?
provide the pseudocode
what you type into the system
READ
what is an output?
provide the pseudocode
what is displayed by the system
DISPLAY
what are error conditions?
anything that could be wrong with the inputs that would lead to error messages (need to be handled by the algorithm)
what is sequential control?
