f
Alpha testing is performed by real user of the software application in a real environment. t or f
d
An English like nonstandard language that lets you state your solution to a problem a. Procedure b. Flowchart c. Algorithm d. Pseudocode
f
An algorithm is a step by step description of how to arrive at a solution in the easiest way t or f
b
Assembly language program must be translated into machine instructions, using an __________________ a. Gatherer b. Assembler c. Executables d. Translator
t
Check the feasibility of implementing the program is part of the requirement analysis t or f
t
Computer cannot understand mnemonics in assembly language, thus translator is used called assembler t or f
t
Computer languages are the techniques through which the user can communicate with the computer by writing program instructions t or f
f
Determine the input to achieve the desired outputs is part of system design t or f
b
During this phase of program development cycle, we check whether the code written is solving the specified problem or not a. System design b. Testing and debugging c. Documentation and maintenance d. Coding
t
Each class of computer has its own particular machine language. t or f
f
Even the software is completed, it needs to be maintained and evaluated regularly t or f
t
In low level languages, there is more chance for errors and it is very difficult to find errors, debug and modify. t or f
f
In machine language, OFF switch is designated by a 1. t or f
f
In maintenance phase, the programming team fixes program errors and updates the software t or f
t
In procedure-oriented programming. A main program centrally controls all the procedures. t or f
f
In pseudocode, steps are linked by connecting lines and directional arrows. t or f
f
Source code must be translated to machine language using language barrier t or f
t
Syntax error and logical error are collectively known as bugs. t or f
a
The correct order of steps in testing and debugging of phase is___ 1. Debug the program 2. Run real data 3. Perform desk checking a. 3,1,2 b. 1,3,2 c. 3,2,1 d. 1,2,3
t
The first step of requirement analysis is to define the problem and the users t or f
b
The following are advantages of low level language except a. It requires very less time for their execution b. Low level language instructions are executed directly without any translation c. Low level language instruction are machine dependent d. A computer can easily understand the low level language
c
The programmer runs a program that multiplies two numbers. He inputted 10 and 5 as the numbers. But on the screen the result is 5, which error do you think is committed by the programmer? a. Run time error b. Semantic error c. Logical error d. Syntax error
f
The programs created using low level language runs on different machines with little changes or no changes at all. t or f
t
The tool you use be a compiler and/or an interpreter, depending on the language you're with and your needs t or f
