<=KNEC Craft Certificate in ICT module 2 structured programming past paper: November 2015
Write a C program that will prompt a user to enter the number of acres of land to be bought. If the number is greater than five, the price per acre is ksh.1.0 million else the price is Ksh. 1.2 Million. The program then computes and display the total cost of the land purchased.

5. The following is an extract of a C program written by student during a programming lesson. #include<stdio.h> void main() { integer:i,j; float: mean; printf(“input two values \n”); fscanf(“%d”,&i,&j); mean=(i+j)/2; printf(“The mean is %d \n”,mean); } Rewrite the program by removing the errors in a c program

10. Joseph created an array in his program to store data. Outline four properties that the data will possess
11. Nancy created a file in a C program to store in formation for her cyber business. State four operation that she is likely to carry out in the file
12. State two features of a user friendly program
13. Describe two types of test data that may be used during program testing
14. Write a C program that will prompt a user to enter the number of acres of land to be bought. If the number is greater than five, the price per acre is ksh.1.0 million else the price is Ksh. 1.2 Million. The program then computes and display the total cost of the land purchased.
15. Outline four approaches that could be used to implement internal documentation of a program under development.
16. The following is a segment code of a c program. use it to answer the question that follows; Outline the function of the statements labelled (i),(ii) and (iii).
17. Outline two assumption that programmers make when constructing a binary tree from a given list of elements

20. State two sorting method that use the swapping techniques.
21. Draw a flowchart used to design a system that prompt a user to enter two integers one after another. The program should then divide the first number with the second number and display the result. If the second value is zero, the program should display an error message “Error: Attempt to divide by zero”.
