Question 6


The starting value of an algorithm used to generate a range of numbers is called the _________.


Question 7


If Number = 6, what is the range of possible numbers that can result from:


Floor(Random() * Number)


The range starts at .


The range ends at .


(Note, this question has 2 parts; you must answer each part correctly to receive full marks.)


Question 8


The ___________ function converts a floating point number to an integer by dropping the fractional part of the number. (For your answer, enter only the function, not any parameters that the function can carry.)

Answer 1

Answer & Explanation:

First question:

0 through 5

Explanation: The range starts at 0 and maximum range of simple Random() is 0.9, hence 0 is starting range and end range is 0.9 * 6 = 5.4. After than Floor() will remove the fractional part resulting to 5

Question 6:

It is called seed value, which decides the range of random numbers to be generated.

Question 7:

The range starts at 0

The range ends at 5

Explanation: The range starts at 0 and maximum range of simple Random() is 0.9, hence 0 is starting range and end range is 0.9 * 6 = 5.4. After then Floor() will remove the fractional part resulting to 5

Question 8:

Floor() converts a floating point to an integer dropping the fractional part.
