Question 19

A group-printed report never outputs detail lines.

Question 20

What type of report outputs only intermediate total lines?

A)detail-printed
B)group-printed
C)record-printed
D)both a and c

Question 21

Group-indicated reports generally appear less cluttered and easier to read than detail-printed reports.

Question 22

An intermediate total and a final total can be computed using the same accumulator.

Question 23

We know that a control break has occurred when the last detail record in a group is processed.

Question 24

An intermediate total reflects accumulated data about all the input records.

Question 25

In a control-break program,it is possible to output detail lines,intermediate total lines,and final total lines all on one page.

Question 26

The control field is the field that determines when a control break is to occur.

Question 27

A CASE control structure is likely to be used to determine if a control break has occurred.

Question 28

The module to process the steps required as a result of a control break is called each time the main processing loop is executed.

Question 29

When a control break occurs,an intermediate-total line is always output.

Question 30

The detail-processing module is called each time the main processing loop is executed.
