Class 6 · Computational Thinking and AI worksheetSimple Pattern Recognition and Decision Making
CBSE Computational Thinking and AI. Patterns in routines and data, rule-based sorting, which rule fits the examples, nearest-neighbour labels. Every sheet has 20 questions in three sections and an answer key, and the questions change every time.

Real questions from this chapter, as the app sets them. Tap Answer to see the answer and working.
Section A · multiple choice
- 1.
Using what we have seen before to decide what to do is:
- debugging
- decomposing
- guessing at random
- making a decision from observations
Answer
(d) making a decision from observations
- 2.
A parcel sorter uses: Rule 1: if weight > 15 kg, label "Heavy". Rule 2: otherwise, if length > 60 cm, label "Long". Rule 3: otherwise, label "Small". (Check the rules in order.) A parcel weighs 26 kg and is 100 cm long. Which label does it get?
- Small
- Long
- Heavy and Long
- Heavy
Answer
(d) Heavy
26 > 15, so Rule 1
- 3.
A parcel sorter uses: Rule 1: if weight > 10 kg, label "Heavy". Rule 2: otherwise, if length > 60 cm, label "Long". Rule 3: otherwise, label "Small". (Check the rules in order.) Parcels (weight, length): (1 kg, 115 cm), (16 kg, 115 cm), (11 kg, 40 cm), (13 kg, 50 cm), (12 kg, 65 cm). How many are labelled "Long"?
- 3
- 0
- 2
- 1
Answer
(d) 1
Long, Heavy, Heavy, Heavy, Heavy
Section B · short answer
- 4.
What is a decision tree?
Answer
A diagram of yes/no questions (rules) where each answer leads down a branch to a decision.
- 5.
A parcel sorter uses: Rule 1: if weight > 30 kg, label "Heavy". Rule 2: otherwise, if length > 60 cm, label "Long". Rule 3: otherwise, label "Small". (Check the rules in order.) A parcel weighs 24 kg and is 40 cm long. Which label does it get?
Answer
Small
24 is not more than 30; 40 is not more than 60, so Rule 3
Section C · long answer
- 6.
Draw (in words) a decision tree to decide what to wear: Is it raining? Is it cold? Give the four possible decisions.
Answer
Raining? Yes → Cold? Yes: raincoat and sweater; No: raincoat. Raining? No → Cold? Yes: sweater; No: light clothes.
