Questions and Answers

What is the basic principle of Modularity in software engineering?

  • Systems should be built with unstructured and chaotic components
  • Systems should be built without any defined components
  • Systems should be built from cohesive, loosely coupled components (correct)
  • Systems should be built from complex, tightly coupled components

    • How does modularity help in reducing the complexity of software designs?

  • By breaking down problems into smaller, solvable parts (correct)
  • By increasing the interdependencies between components
  • By creating a single large component
  • By disregarding system components

    • What does Modular Decomposability refer to in software engineering?

  • Breaking down a problem into different sub-problems systematically (correct)
  • Creating complex problems without breaking them down
  • Ignoring the breakdown of problems
  • Combining sub-problems to create a larger problem
