free vs paid features → Comparing what a tool lets you do at no cost with what only unlocks after you pay, such as export options or storage limits

Finding a new tool by searching reviews and trying a free trial before committing to it → search("best free interactive video maker")

Pick the first tool you see and pay for the yearly plan straight away → Paying before testing means you may buy a tool that lacks the features you need. Try the free version first and compare it with other tools.

FOR EACH tool IN tools DO
  OUTPUT tool

Section E: Spot the Error

C — An IF statement needs the keyword THEN after its condition. The line should be IF cost = "free" THEN.

A — The list of new tools is missing its closing square bracket. It should end with ] so the list is complete.

B — The variable name is misspelt. The search should use the variable query, so the line should be results ← SEARCH(query).

C — The arrow ← assigns a value, but an IF needs a comparison. To check whether the plan is free, use = like this: IF plan = "free" THEN.

B — update starts as true, so a loop that runs while it is false never runs. The reminder to re-check a fast-changing tool would never show. It should be WHILE update = true DO.
