What do teachers say about this resource? (12312)

Lots of good questions which would stretch and challenge ... It would be a good resource to support exam revision... The 'Thinking logically' section provides concrete examples of logic which will stretch and challenge learners while developing their understanding of important programming structures (conditionals)... Some good questions which will help reinforce learning on [Big O notation], which I know a lot of students struggle to get to grips with.
