Basic Scenario Questions for practice:

This matches exactly the IGCSE format you shared:

• Keywords (INPUT, OUTPUT, IF, THEN, ELSE, ENDIF) are in CAPITALS.
• Meaningful names (like Number) start with a capital letter.
• Indentation (two spaces under IF/ELSE paths) is maintained.
• Assignment operator ← is not needed here because we are only reading and checking the
number.
• MOD operator is used to check remainder (even/odd check).

Display even or odd

• If the number is even, it outputs "Even Number".
• If the number is odd, it outputs "Odd Number".

DECLARE Number : INTEGER

OUTPUT "Enter a number"
INPUT Number
IF MOD(Number, 2) = 0
THEN
OUTPUT "Even number"
ELSE
OUTPUT "Odd number"
ENDIF

Check if a number is positive, negative, or zero

OUTPUT "Enter a number" THEN
INPUT Number OUTPUT "Negative Number"
IF Number > 0 ELSE
THEN OUTPUT "Zero"
OUTPUT "Positive Number" ENDIF
ELSE ENDIF
IF Number < 0

2. Find the larger of three numbers

DECLARE Number1 : INTEGER THEN
DECLARE Number2 : INTEGER OUTPUT "First number is the largest"
DECLARE Number3 : INTEGER ELSE
IF Number2 >= Number3
OUTPUT "Enter first number" THEN
INPUT Number1 OUTPUT "Second number is the largest"
OUTPUT "Enter second number" ELSE
INPUT Number2 OUTPUT "Third number is the largest"
OUTPUT "Enter third number" ENDIF
INPUT Number3 ENDIF

IF Number1 >= Number2 AND Number1 >=

Number3
 2

3. Calculate and display the square of a number

OUTPUT "Enter a number"
INPUT Number
Square ← Number ^ 2
OUTPUT "The square is ", Square

4. Simple grading system

OUTPUT "Enter marks" ELSE
INPUT Marks IF Marks >= 70
IF Marks >= 90 THEN
THEN OUTPUT "Grade C"
OUTPUT "Grade A" ELSE
ELSE OUTPUT "Fail"
IF Marks >= 80 ENDIF
THEN ENDIF
OUTPUT "Grade B" ENDIF

5. Display whether a number is multiple of 5

OUTPUT "Enter a number" OUTPUT "Multiple of 5"
INPUT Number ELSE
IF MOD(Number,5) = 0 OUTPUT "Not a multiple of 5"
THEN ENDIF

Calculate area of a rectangle

DECLARE Length : REAL OUTPUT "Enter width"
DECLARE Width : REAL INPUT Width
DECLARE Area : REAL Area ← Length * Width
OUTPUT "Enter length" OUTPUT "Area is ", Area
INPUT Length

3. Check if age is eligible to vote

DECLARE Age : INTEGER OUTPUT "Eligible to vote"
OUTPUT "Enter your age" ELSE
INPUT Age OUTPUT "Not eligible to vote"
IF Age >= 18 ENDIF
THEN

Calculate total and average of three marks

DECLARE Mark1 : INTEGER INPUT Mark2
DECLARE Mark2 : INTEGER OUTPUT "Enter third mark"
DECLARE Mark3 : INTEGER INPUT Mark3
DECLARE Total : INTEGER
DECLARE Average : REAL Total ← Mark1 + Mark2 + Mark3
Average ← Total / 3
OUTPUT "Enter first mark"
INPUT Mark1 OUTPUT "Total marks: ", Total
OUTPUT "Enter second mark" OUTPUT "Average marks: ", Average

String Variables:
Greet the user by name
DECLARE Name : STRING

OUTPUT "Enter your name"

INPUT Name

OUTPUT "Hello, ", Name

Join (concatenate) two strings

DECLARE FirstName : STRING
DECLARE LastName : STRING
DECLARE FullName : STRING

OUTPUT "Enter your first name"

INPUT FirstName
OUTPUT "Enter your last name"
INPUT LastName

FullName ← FirstName + " " + LastName

OUTPUT "Your full name is ", FullName

Check if a password is correct

DECLARE Pword1, Pword2 : STRING

OUTPUT "Enter password"

INPUT Pword1
OUTPUT "Re-enter the same password."
INPUT Pword2

IF Pword1 = Pword2
THEN
OUTPUT "Access granted"
ELSE
OUTPUT "Access denied"
ENDIF

Count <- 1
Count <- 1
FOR Count <- 1 TO 10

Calculate total and average of 10 inputs

DECLARE Mark : INTEGER
DECLARE Total : INTEGER
DECLARE Average : REAL

FOR Count <- 1 TO 10 Average ← Total / Count -1

OUTPUT "Enter mark" OUTPUT "Total marks: ", Total

INPUT Mark OUTPUT "Average marks: ", Average

Total ←Total + Mark

NEXT Count
