AP Computer Science Vocab Part 1
Across
- 3. an ordered collection of elements
- 5. the process of accessing each item in a list one at a time
- 8. a type of program where statements run in order from top to bottom
- 9. the single unit of information in a computer, typically represented as a 0 or 1
- 10. an individual value in a list that is assigned a unique index
- 11. the series of connections between computing devices on a network starting with a sender and ending with a receiver
- 12. finding and fixing problems in an algorithm or program
- 14. a combination of operators and values that evaluates to a single value
- 16. 8 bits
- 18. a compression process for reducing the number of bits needed to represent something without losing any information. This process is reversible.
Down
- 1. a chunk of data sent over a network
- 2. a named reference to a value
- 4. an ordered sequence of characters
- 6. the inclusion of extra components so that a system can continue to work even if individual components fail
- 7. a named group of programming instructions
- 9. a way of representing information using only two options
- 13. a compression process for reducing the number of bits needed to represent something in which some information is lost or thrown away. This process is not reversible.
- 15. error from attempting to represent a number that is too large
- 17. associated with an action and supplies input data to a program
