[Year 12 SofDev] 2013 Exam reflection

[Kevork KROZIAN]

Hi Folks

I am just browsing the VCAA 2013 exam and 2 items jump out at me:


1.       Section B, Q 5 - What is a record and what is a file ?
Examiners' report states a record is a control structure ?????

A record is a control structure and method of storing and grouping related data together: eg ID 001, Name Fred, LastName Jones. This data is a record as it is relevant to each other and stored together.
A record is a data structure which stores related information such as name, score, year in one data store. Individual data stored in a record can be accessed through an index to find the related information within that record.

                A control structure is a block of code that dictates the flow of control such as  branching, selection, looping, function call and not a storage structure.
