1
Producing Robust Programs
Give one example of erroneous test data for a field that only accepts whole numbers from 1 to 10.
2
Boolean Logic
Evaluate X = NOT A AND B when A = 0 and B = 1.
3
Data Representation: Number Systems
An 8-bit register stores the value 01100000 (denary 96). State the resulting 8-bit binary value after a left shift by 1 place, and state whether an overflow occurs.
4
Data Representation: Images, Sound and Compression

5
Programming Practice: Writing and Refining Programs
Give one specific way this code could be refined without changing what it does: a = 5, b = 3, c = a + b, PRINT c
