Questions and Answers

What is modularization in software/system?

  • The process of dividing a task into subtasks based on logical or functional use (correct)
  • The process of creating separate, complex modules that are interdependent
  • The process of duplicating code in different modules
  • The process of combining all functions into one large file

    • Which condition must each component meet according to the Modularity Principle?

  • Independence: rely on other modules to function
  • Single-purpose: perform multiple functions (correct)
  • Small: contain a large amount of information
  • Complexity: be difficult for humans to understand

    • Why is designing a program all at once with all required functions considered a difficult job?

  • Because it ensures scalability of the program
  • Due to the program's size, complexity, and constant changes (correct)
  • Because changing one part of the code will not affect another part
  • Because it makes the program too simple
