[Year 12 SofDev] IARTV sample exam MC#1

[Sonia Cotugno]

A quick question of you:

 

The IARTV sample exam provided the following multiple choice that seems
to have caught me out.

 

1. Program syntax errors occur:

A when the program is running

B during a desk check of the algorithm

C during the evaluation of the program

D during compilation

 

I said D because I think the only way to really ensure that all syntax
is correct is through compilation. They provide the answer B but I
thought that the desk check is more about checking logic errors. What do
you think?
