What did you put for the novice question and the the other question in section A where it said why is it good for program to have a good code or something like that?

For the novice one I was really confused, So I just stuck something random down like "Advanced" lol.

For the good code one, I wrote to make sure the code is readable and so people can understand the code better.

For the question that asked what is the purpose of registers in processors. I wrote it temporarily stored data is that correct ?

I think it because Databases need to be updated and ROM cannot be altered. What I want to know is how you got a database in the ROM in the first place...

I wrote for it that Rom memory can't be removed and you can only read it..

For the selection question in section a I wrote it gives a variety of options and they can't choose a wrong answer
