Across

1. is an acronym for random access memory, a type of computer memory that can be accessed randomly
5. a Boolean operator which gives the value one if and only if all the operands are one, and otherwise has a value of zero.
7. a binary variable, having two possible values called “true” and “false.”.
8. a person who operates equipment or a machine.
10. the collection of all the parts you can physically touch.
13. finds the remainder after division of one number by another
16. a value that can change, depending on conditions or on information passed to the program
18. a programming language that produces software for multiple platforms
19. a series of objects all of which are the same size and type.
20. used to separate relevant information or a comment from the rest of the text, or to enclose mathematical symbols, or the text inside of these marks.
23. This means the programs they write sometimes have small errors, called "bugs," in them.
24. method of solving a problem where the solution depends on solutions to smaller instances of the same problem.
28. a program that can analyze and execute a program line by line.
29. a register in a computer processor that contains the address (location) of the instruction being executed at the current time.
30. is a data area or buffer used for storing requests that need to be handled
31. is the smallest unit of data in a computer. A __ has a single binary value, either 0 or 1.
33. acronym for read-only memory, computer memory on which data has been pre recorded. Once data has been written onto a ROM chip, it cannot be removed and can only be read.
34. is a computer program that transforms computer code written in one programming language into another programming language.
37. a list of data items, commands, etc., stored so as to be retrievable in a definite order, usually the order of insertion.
38. to place a data item onto a stack.
40. an instruction in a computer program that can cause a computer to begin executing a different instruction sequence

12. it is simply a contraction of else if and is
14. a computer or computer program which manages access to a centralized resource or service in a network.
15. a value that is passed into a function
17. is a well-defined procedure that allows a computer to solve a problem.
21. a set of instructions designed to perform a frequently used operation within a program.
22. freeware, and public domain are software categories defined by how programs may be distributed, copied, used, and modified.
25. arrange systematically in groups; separate according to type, class, etc.
26. refers to the spelling and grammar of a programming language.
27. a sequence of instruction s that is continually repeated until a certain condition is reached
28. are unary operators that add or subtract one, to or from their operand, respectively
32. remove an object from a stack.
35. a Boolean operator that gives the value one if at least one operand (or input) has a value of one, and otherwise has a value of zero.
36. are a commonly used data type in computer programming.
38. a high-level general-purpose programming language.
39. the result of arithmetically adding numbers or quantities.
40. a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits, representing a binary number.
