Let’s go through each question one by one. These are about computer science and programming basics — things like what you need to run a program, how computers work, and some simple logic.

Set #1: “BASIC EXPLANATIONS”
1. For your application to read a
file, it needs access to the file system.
2. A file-based game app might record every
move or action in an options menu (like saving progress).
3. The user interface with an option selector is called a
menu.
4. In order to create a new file, you will need to open a stream to
write data.
5. When a variable is set to zero, you can call its current value “Zero”.
6. Count = 0 means
nothing has been counted yet.
7. If count == 0, then there is
no items or actions recorded.
8. Amount of money = $0 means
you have no money.
9. Percentage points equal to zero mean
no change or no score.
10. Everything you see on screen you have to
draw or render.
11. To do this, you should use
graphics commands or drawing functions.

Set #2: “MORE EXPLANATIONS”
1. For your application to read a
database or settings file, it needs access to stored data.
2. A file-based game app might record every
level completed or high score in an options menu.
3. The user interface with an option selector is called a
dropdown or combo box.
4. In order to create a new file, you will need to open a stream to
save or write data.
5. When a variable is set to zero, you can call its current value “Null” or “Empty”.
6. Count = 0 means
the counter hasn’t started.
7. If count == 0, then there is
zero entries or events.
8. Amount of money = $0 means
your balance is empty.
9. Percentage points equal to zero mean
no growth or no result.
10. Everything you see on screen you have to
display using code.
11. To do this, you should use
UI libraries or rendering tools.

Set #3: “SIMPLE APPLICATIONS”
1. For your application to read a
config file or user input, it needs access to external data.
2. A file-based game app might record every
player choice or setting in an options menu.
3. The user interface with an option selector is called a
selection menu or radio buttons.
4. In order to create a new file, you will need to open a stream to
output or store data.
5. When a variable is set to zero, you can call its current value “Initial” or “Default”.
6. Count = 0 means
starting point.
7. If count == 0, then there is
nothing added yet.
8. Amount of money = $0 means
you’re broke.
9. Percentage points equal to zero mean
flatline or no movement.
10. Everything you see on screen you have to
code or build.
11. To do this, you should use
programming languages or game engines.
