    Question 1 b) Indexing should be 0:49 (This contains 50 names) or 1 to 50 (also contains 50 names) we either used zero-based indexing 0:50 would contain 51 names

      In case if we are starting the position from 0 , we can end it on 49 ....then also it will work for 50 times ..
      So
      1. 0-49
      2. 1-50
      Both will work 50 times and that is what our requirement is

      Thanks for the question! Spaces count as characters as well (32 in the ASCII table) so if you include them in your count, "f" is at position 16.

    Sorry to ask this late but why do we have to write Input number after end if in q5

    • @igcsecs
      @igcsecs  Рік тому +1

      Not too late at all! We want to change the value of Number every time the loop goes around (otherwise we'd run into an infinite loop). We write it after the ENDIF since we want the IF statement to check if the previous number is >= 100 first. Hope that helps!

    • @abdulrehmanali8531
      @abdulrehmanali8531 Рік тому

      Update I understood my own question.due to my own stupidity I didn't know what meant so as far as I can tell if 200 enters the loop ,as this number is not 999 it will never leave the loop as only 999 can interrupt /stop the loop. Hence we added Input after endif so to change values untill 999 is entered to stop the loop
      Ps if the uploader reads this please explain what I did but better

    • @kibiew
      @kibiew Рік тому +2

      I was also lost but let me make you understand too.
      In pseudocode all indexing begins with a 0. We know that it needs to output 50 names from the array 'Name[ ]'.
      Therfore, it must loop 50 times to output all of the names required but it also needs to loop once more so that it can meet the condition: 0 to 50.
      I think using a while loop would be easier to understand just like in the ms of the paper.
      What I did:
      x = 0
      WHILE x < 50 DO
      OUTPUT Name[x]
      x

      The number must be input in every iteration of the while loop. The first number is input on line 1, which is checked by the while loop condition and the if statement. Then the next number is input after the if statement and we loop back to the beginning of the while.
