What is the definition of 'Waterfall Model'?

A linear, sequential software development approach where each stage must be completed before moving to the next.

What is the definition of 'Agile Development'?

A flexible, iterative approach to software development that emphasizes collaboration and adaptation to change.

What is the definition of 'DevOps'?

A software development methodology that combines development and operations to enable faster and more reliable software releases.

What is the definition of 'Iterative Development'?

A development process where a prototype is developed and refined through repeated cycles.

What is the definition of 'Incremental Development'?

A development process where a program is built in small parts, ensuring each part works before combining them.

What is the definition of 'Program Specifications'?

Descriptions of a program's goals and functions, agreed upon by programmers and clients.

What is the definition of 'Program Requirements'?

Describe how the program works. What can the user do? What does the program need from the user?

What is the definition of 'Program Documentation'?

Notes and summaries that explain how a program works, acting as a user manual for the code.

What are 'Comments' in programming?

Explanatory notes written directly into the code, ignored by the computer when running the program.

What is 'Sourcing' in the context of code?

Acknowledging and citing any code or work that is not originally yours.

What is the purpose of the '#' symbol in Python code?

It indicates a comment, which is ignored by the interpreter.

Identify the error in the following code: print('Hello, World!')

There is no error. This code will print 'Hello, World!' to the console.

What does the following code output?

#This is a comment

print('This will print')

'This will print'

How is program documentation applied in real-world scenarios?

It helps new developers understand existing codebases, facilitates team collaboration, and enables easier maintenance and updates.

How is the iterative development model applied in real-world scenarios?

Developing a mobile app, where user feedback is gathered after each prototype and used to improve the next version.
