Spend longer whenever you need.</p><p>A decision chooses which statements run. The policy here is “ready at 80 or higher.” Trace 85, 79, 80, and 81 before running each case. The comparison includes 80. A program that prints the right answer for 85 may still be wrong at the boundary. Add a separate check rejecting scores below 0 or above 100; rejection and needing practice mean different things.</p><p><code>begin</code> and <code>end</code> enclose statements. <code>:=</code> assigns; <code>=</code> compares. The final program terminator is <code>end.</code>. This course uses Free Pascal in Object Pascal mode while starting with procedural constructs.</p><pre><code class="language-pascal">program AgilaStudy;
