- 32. the series of connections between computing devices on a network starting with a sender and ending with a receiver
- 33. Error from attempting to represent a number that is too precise. The value is rounded.
- 37. a written description of how a command or piece of code works or was developed
- 38. A process for creating a digital representation of analog data by measuring the analog data at regular intervals called samples.
- 39. the inputs and outputs that allow a user to interact with a piece of software. User interfaces can include a variety of forms such as buttons, menus, images, text, and graphics.

- 51. a group of interconnected computing devices capable of sending or receiving data.
- 52. A collection of public copyright licenses that enable the free distribution of an otherwise copyrighted work, used when an author wants to give people the right to share, use, and build upon a work that they have created
- 53. affects the sequential flow of control by executing different statements based on the value of a Boolean expression
- 54. some program statements run when triggered by an event, like a mouse click or a key press
- 55. NOT, AND, and OR, which evaluate to a Boolean value
- 56. the maximum amount of data that can be sent in a fixed amount of time, usually measured in bits per second

Down
- 1. a command or instruction. Sometimes also referred to as a code statement.
- 2. A way of representing information using only two options
- 3. a system of linked pages, programs, and files
- 5. Can continue to function even in the event of individual component failures. This is important because elements of complex systems like a computer network fail at unexpected times, often in groups.
- 6. a group of computing devices and programs working together for a common purpose
- 11. A work or invention that is the result of creativity, such as a piece of writing or a design, to which one has rights and for which one may apply for a patent, copyright, trademark, etc.
- 13. the practice of obtaining input or information from a large number of people via the Internet
- 17. NOT, AND, and OR, which evaluate to a Boolean value
- 21. a data type that is either true or false
- 22. a command that executes the code within a function
- 23. a named group of programming instructions. Also referred to as a “procedure”.
- 25. A process for reducing the number of bits needed to represent something without losing any information. This process is reversible.
- 26. choosing a smaller subset of a data set to use for analysis, for example by eliminating / keeping only certain rows in a table
- 27. Data that changes discretely through a finite set of possible values
- 28. A type of computer that forwards data across a network
- 30. data that does not accurately reflect the full population or phenomenon being studied
- 31. a machine that can run a program, including computers, tablets, servers, routers, and smart sensors
- 34. A chunk of data sent over a network. Larger messages are divided into packets that may arrive at the destination in order, out-of-order, or not at all
- 35. data that are sent to a computer for processing by a program. Can come in a variety of forms, such as tactile interaction, audio, visuals, or text.
- 36. Data with values that change continuously, or smoothly, over time. Some examples of analog data include music, colors of a painting, or position of a sprinter during a race.
