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
