Concepts in Computer Science

Variables

Functions

Loops

Arrays

Like a one-time event

Like routines

Like random occurrences

Like unexpected events

To save time and effort

To make code more complex

To slow down execution

To prevent code from running

They allow you to execute the same code multiple times

They make the code harder to read

They increase the number of errors

They reduce the functionality of the program

You can easily change how many times the code runs

You cannot change the number of times the code runs

Loops make the code run only once

Loops stop the code from running

A reusable block of code

A type of variable

A method to store data

A way to compile code

Only once

Whenever you need it

Only at the start of a program

Only at the end of a program

A function to bake bread

A function to frost cupcakes

A function to boil water

A function to chop vegetables

Loops can call the function as many times as needed.

Loops make the code run slower.

Loops are only useful for small tasks.

Loops prevent functions from being called.

For small tasks like writing one letter.

For large numbers, like frosting 100 cupcakes.

For tasks that need to be done once.

For tasks that require no repetition.
