Key Topics to Revise

1

Input Statement and Its Use

  • LET statement assigns fixed values in the program code, but it cannot take user input at runtime.
  • INPUT statement lets a numeric variable or an alphanumeric variable receive a value from the user during execution.
  • During INPUT execution, a question mark appears on the screen.
2

Solved Input Programs

  • To add two numbers entered by the user, INPUT is required because LET alone cannot do this.
  • A program can use INPUT for numeric values, alphanumeric values, or both.
  • When multiple values are entered with INPUT, they must be typed in the correct order.
3

Conditional Statements in BASIC

  • A computer cannot make decisions unless it is explicitly instructed to do so.
  • Conditional statements help the computer choose what to do based on a condition.
  • The main conditional forms are IF-THEN, IF-THEN with ELSE, and IF-THEN-ELSEIF with ELSE.
4

Examples of Conditional Programming

  • The mother-and-homework situation is an example of a condition: if homework is complete, then playing is allowed; otherwise, homework must be completed first.
  • A simple IF-THEN example is used to print 'Positive Number' when a value is greater than zero.
  • In IF-THEN with ELSE, one action happens when the condition is true and another when it is false.
