Question No. 1 [10]
a. Debug and correct the following JavaScript code to print the even numbers
from 2 to 10.
<scripts>
let i = 1;
while(I > 10) {
if(I % 2 = 0);
[Link] (“Even number: “ + i)
i + 2;
}
</scrip>
Answer (Solution)
Corrected Code List of Errors Fixed:
1. HTML
<script> Tags: Changed <scripts> and </scrip> to the
let i = 2; correct <script> and </script>.
while (i <= 10) {
2. Initialization: Changed let i = 1 to let i = 2.
if (i % 2 === 0) {
[Link]("Even number: " + To print even numbers starting from 2, it is most
i); efficient to start the counter at 2.
} 3. Case Sensitivity: Changed I (capital)
i++; to i (lowercase). JavaScript is case-sensitive,
} so I was undefined.
</script> 4. Loop Condition: Changed while(I
>10) to while(i <= 10). The original condition (1
> 10) was false, so the loop would never run.
5. Comparison Operator: Changed if(I % 2 =
0) to if(i % 2 = = = 0). A single = is used for
assignment; = = = is used for comparison.
6. Punctuation: Removed the semicolon; after
the if statement. A semicolon there terminates the
logic immediately, separating it from the code that
follows.
7. Quote Marks: Changed the "smart quotes"
(“ and ”) to standard programming straight quotes
("). Smart quotes cause syntax errors.
8. Increment Logic: Changed i + 2 to i++ (or i = i
+ 1). The original code calculated a value but did
not save it back to the variable i, which would
cause an infinite loop.
 Note: I changed the increment to 1 so that
the if statement checks every number.
Alternatively, you could remove the if statement
entirely and simply do i += 2.
 b. Write a JavaScript program to calculate the area and perimeter of a
rectangle. [5]
Requirements:
 Take length and width as variables (you may assume: length=8,
width=5)
 Calculate area = length x width
 Calculate perimeter = 2 x (length + width)
 Display both results using [Link]()
Answer (Solution)
Here is the JavaScript program based on our Output:
requirements.

JavaScript The area of the rectangle is: 40

The perimeter of the rectangle is: 26
// 1. Define the variables
let length = 8;
let width = 5;

// 2. Calculate the area

let area = length * width;

// 3. Calculate the perimeter

let perimeter = 2 * (length + width);

// 4. Display the results

[Link]("The area of the rectangle is:
" + area);
[Link]("The perimeter of the rectangle
is: " + perimeter);

a. Write a JavaScript program to display the first 7 terms of the even numbers
series. (Term: 2, 4, 6, . . .) [5]
Answer (Solution)
Here is the JavaScript program to display the first 7 Output:
terms of the even number series.
2
4
JavaScript 6
8
10
// Loop from 1 to 7 because we need exactly 7 12
terms 14
for (let i = 1; i <= 7; i++)
{
// Multiply the loop counter by 2 to get the
even number
// i=1 -> 2, i=2 -> 4, i=3 -> 6, etc.
let evenNumber = i * 2;
[Link](evenNumber);
}
 b. What will be the output of the following code? [5]
let x = 5;
let y = 3
if(x % 2 == 1 && y < x) {
[Link](“Valid”);
}
else
{
[Link] (“Invalid”);
}
Answer (Solution)
Output: Explanation:
The output of the code will be:1. Variables: x is 5 and y is 3.
2. The if condition: (x % 2 == 1 && y < x)
Valid  Part 1 (x % 2 == 1): 5 % 2 calculates the remainder of 5
divided by 2. The remainder is 1. So, 1 == 1 evaluates to True.
 Part 2 (y < x): Is 3 less than 5? This evaluates to True.
 Logical AND (&&): Since both parts are True (True && True),
the entire condition is True.
3. Result: The code executes the block inside the if statement,
printing "Valid".

 Write an algorithm to find the factorial of a number using a loop [5]
Answer (Solution)
What is Factorial?
Factorial of a number n (denoted as n!) is the product of all positive integers from 1 to n.
Example:
 5! = 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 120
 4! = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 24
 0! = 1 (by definition)
Algorithm: Factorial of a Number

Step 1: START
Step 2: Declare variables: num, factorial, i
Step 3: Read the number from user and store in num
Step 4: Check if num < 0
- If Yes, print "Factorial not possible for negative numbers"
- Go to Step 8
Step 5: Initialize factorial = 1
Step 6: Initialize i = 1
Step 7: Repeat while i <= num
a. factorial = factorial × i
b. i = i + 1
Step 8: Print factorial
Step 9: STOP
