  • Q4
    How would you dry-run your code?
    By testing the computer program with empty (NULL) data values.
    By running the code in such a way that any undetected error in the code may be revealed.
    By recording in a table, the changes in values of the related variables and other input/output, following the steps of an algorithm.
    By running the code in a safe environment before deployment on a live computer system.

  • Q5
    What are the benefits of modular programming?
    A computer program designed in modular files is much smaller in size, but more efficient to run.
    In modular programming, pre-defined modules are simply combined together, which helps in writing programs much faster than conventionally.
    Modular programming is best used for starter computer programmers, as it does not require too complex programming techniques.
    It allows for breaking down a program into smaller parts, which may be useful for team work. It helps better maintain or debug a program. It makes the code re-usable.

  • Q6
    How specific are the modules being imported?
    Question Image
    The last three imports are more specific than the first two, as the first two must be invoked using the dot annotation. Ex.: time.sleep(3) #will persist the display for 3 seconds
    All five ways of importing modules end up producing the same result, so the functions are used in just the same way.
    The first two imports are more specific because they are shorter, so they are easier to use.
    The * symbol means that the entire module is made available as this is traditionally the wild card, so the last way of importing is the most specific.
