1. Question:What are the three logical structures in any structured program? 

    Answer
    1. Sequence structure: In the sequence structure, instructions are executed in the order in which they are encounterd.
    2. Loop/Iteration structure: The loop (or iteration) structure provides for the repetition of one or more instructions for as long as a given situation, referred to as a condition, exists.
    3. Selection structure: A condition is tested, and one of two alternative courses of action is selected depending on whether the condition is ture or false.

  2. Question:What are subroutines? 

    Answer
    A group of instructions that performs a limited processing test, such as printing a portion of a report, reading an input record, or calculating a square root.
    subroutine can be classified into two types:

    1. Internal subroutines: An internal subroutine is part of the program that uses it.
    2. External subroutines: External subroutines are used for tasks that more than one program is likely to want performed.

    Answer
    Control field : A field is input records that is used to sequence the file and that is checked to determine  when a subtotal is to be printed.

    Control break : A change in the value in a control field between consecutive resords in a file.
