Does anybody have any predictions regarding questions 5 and 6 tomorrow? I tend to lose marks on only the last 2 questions.

Oh nice, how’d you find the rest of the paper? The 6th question was so nice compared to previous ones

For question 1 it said write the lines of code where there is a selection statement and I thought since it was plural there were multiple so I wrote the line of the if, else and while loop. Do u think that would be correct? Or would I lose the mark for it

Also it asked to round on one of the questions and I forgot the syntax to round cus normally I have Google when programming so I just hardcoded a rounding function, would I lose marks for that? Even though it still rounded to 2 decimal places
