i. Adds 2 to a and stores the result in b
ii. Multiplies b times 4 and stores the result in a
iii. Divides a by 3.14 and stores the result in b
iv. Subtracts 8 from b and stores the result in a
v. Stores the value 27 in a.
2. Convert the following pseudocodes to C++ programs. Be sure to define the appropriate variables.
[5 Marks]
i.
Store 20 in the speed variable.

Multiply speed by time and store the result in the distance variable.
Display the contents of the distance variable.
ii.
Store 172.5 in the force variable.
Store 27.5 in the area variable.
Divide area by force and store the result in the pressure variable.
Display the contents of the pressure variable.
3. With clear examples, distinguish between a variable and a constant. [4 Marks]
4. How may the double variables temp, weight, and age be defined in one statement?
[1 Mark]
5. How may the int variables months, days, and years be defined in one statement, with months
initialized to 2 and years initialized to 3? [1 Mark]

6. Modify the following program so it prints two blank lines between each line of text. Be sure to
correct the syntax errors as well. [3 Marks]
$include <iostream.h>
using name spacestd;
int main
{

ternary Operator. [5 Marks]
17. Write a pseudocode algorithm for a program that asks the user to enter a golfer’s score for three
games of golf, and then displays the average of the three scores. After you write the pseudocode
algorithm, convert it to a complete C++ program. [5 Marks]
18. Write an if/else statement that assigns 0 to x when y is equal to 10. Otherwise, it should assign 1
to x. [2 Marks]
19. Write a program that checks whether the year entered by the user is a leap year or not. [5 Marks]
