(a) What is: (i) an array; (ii) a syntax error?

(b) Write QBASIC program that will input multiples of Three between 1 and 20 into a one-dimensional array and display the output on the screen.

(c) Convert D5FA,, to binary.

Explanation

(a)(i) An array is a collection of elements of the same type stored in a single variable.

OR

An array is a data structure with homogeneous element.

OR An array is a row of values, a column of values or a combination of rows and columns of values.

OR

An array is a data structure consisting of a collection of elements (values or variables) each identified by at least an array index or key.

(i) A syntax error is an error resulting from violation of grammatical rules of a language.

OR

A syntax error is an error from non compliance with the grammar of a language

(b) 10 DIM M (7)

20 PRINT "MULTIPLE OF 3"

30 FOR I = 1 TO 6

40 M() = 3 *I

50 PRINT M(I)

60 NEXT I

70 END

OR

10 FOR I = 1 TO 6

20 M(I) =3 *I

30 PRINT M(I)

40 NEXT I

(c) Converting D5 FA\(_{16}\) to binary

D = 1101

5 = 0101

F = 1111

A = 1010

D5FA\(_{16}\) = 1101010111111010\(_{2}\)
