What is the primary function of a Decision Tree in system development?

To display all the possible outcomes of any decision

How does a Decision Tree simplify the knowledge acquisition process?

By offering a more natural alternative to frames and rule knowledge representation techniques

What do links represent in a Decision Tree?

Outcomes of decisions

How does a Decision Tree help the analyst?

By identifying the accurate decision that must be made

What is the purpose of using a Data Dictionary during Structured Analysis?

To store and manage information about the system

Which technique is used to display conditions and their alternative actions within a horizontal tree framework?

Decision Trees

What is an advantage of decision tables?

Easy verification and validation of inconsistencies and contradictions

What is a function of the upper left quadrant in a decision table?

Contains condition entries

Which statement is true about the rules extracted from a decision table?

Rules are optimized by putting AND between conditions

What is the major optimization of rule R1= If (working-day = Y) ^ (holiday = N) ^ (Rainy-day = Y) Then, Go to office?

If (working-day = Y) then Go to office

Which rule is an optimized version of R3= If (working-day = N) ^ (holiday = Y) ^ (Rainy-day = N) Then, Go to picnic?

If (holiday = Y) ^ (Rainy-day = N) Then go to the picnic

What is the resultant tree of Table 1 based on the given text?

(Day = Working) ^ (Outlook = Rainy) Then Go To Office

What is the optimization for rules R1 and R2 based on the given text?

(Day = Working) Then Go To Office

"In R1 and R2, there is no need to check the condition Outlook = Rainy and Outlook = Sunny if day = working because if the day is working, whether it is a sunny or rainy day, the decision is to Go to the office." What does this statement imply?

"Outlook = Rainy" and "Outlook = Sunny" are not relevant conditions for day = working

"The following rules are constructed from the decision tree as shown below." What does this statement imply?

The rules extracted from the decision tree are directly presented in "Table 1"

What are the characteristics of a good software engineer?

Absence of domain knowledge

What is a major importance of Software Engineering?

To ensure effective and reliable software products

What is a prerequisite for learning Software Engineering?
