What are the following:

"Sequential algorithm"

"Conditional Algorithm"

"Interactive input/output."


"What the heck are trace tables?"

Thanks in advance.

In Sequence

Depending on a previous condition

User interaction required.

Not to be nasty, but look at the questions that you asked about and try to understand what the actual words mean in a normal context instead of computers.

The root word of sequential is sequence. Using a dictionary, this would imply following one-after-another, inline

The root word of conditional is condition. This would imply a state of something.

The root word of interactive is interact. Input/output should be self explanatory.

Also, everything that you asked for should be in any textbook. Even though you missed/skipped class, have you cracked the book.

I frigured that's what they meant, I just needed some reassurance since they ARE NOWHERE MENTIONED IN THE TEXT!

I still have no idea of a trace table.....maybe to trace data?

Office hours? TA? Ask a classmate to copy notes?

Assuming you had a good reason for missing class, it should be no problem getting help from the people teaching the class.
