Across
- 2. the largest/smallest data value that is accepted by a program and the corresponding smallest/largest rejected data value
- 4. data that is rejected by a program
- 7. automated checks carried out by a program that data is reasonable before it is accepted into a computer system
- 11. a check that a data item has been entered
- 12. a check that the data entered is of a specific type
- 13. a check that the characters entered conform to a pre-defined pattern
Down
- 1. checking that data has been accurately copied from another source and input into a computer or transferred from one part of a computer system to another
- 3. a method used to check that the data entered is a specific number of characters long or that the number of characters is between an upper value and a lower value
- 5. an algorithm that inspects each item in a list in turn to see if the item matches the value searched for
- 6. the largest/smallest data value that is accepted by a program
- 8. a check that the value of a number is between an upper value and a lower value
- 9. an algorithm that makes multiple passes through a list comparing each element with the next element and swapping them. This continues until there is a pass where no more swaps are made
- 10. data that is accepted by a program
- 14. an additional digit appended to a number to check if the entered number is error-free; it is a data entry check and not a data transmission check
