Algorithms & Programming Fundamentals
Which programming language uses C+ or Java for expressing algorithms?
C++
Python
Scratch
Java
When aiming to develop AI applications such as expert systems, which feature is most advantageous?
Inheritance in object-oriented programming
Rule-based constructs in logic programming
Loops in procedural programming
Recursion in functional programming
In a software development process, what is the main purpose of using algorithms?
To outline a step-by-step solution to a problem
To increase the storage capacity required by software
To enhance the graphical user interface of an application
To decide which programming language should be used for coding
What potential security risk does utilizing floating-point arithmetic possess when programming financial transaction software?
Floating-point arithmetic increases processing time, possibly allowing more time for unauthorized interception attempts during transactions.
Floating-point arithmetic can introduce rounding errors that might be exploited in fraudulent activities through transaction miscalculations.
Implementing floating-point operations often leads to more complex code bases that increase chances of unintended security loopholes.
Utilizing floating-point arithmetic requires additional memory allocation which could lead to vulnerabilities via buffer overflow attacks.
What value will be stored in variable "result" after executing this expression if variables "a"=5 and "b"=10? result = (a > b) ? a:b;
10
True
False
5

-1
-1/2
-0
-2

When designing an algorithm for searching through a distributed database system, what consideration would be paramount to minimize search time?
Ensuring that each server uses the same sequential search method to maintain consistency across searches.
Implementing an indexing mechanism that allows parallel searches across multiple servers simultaneously.
Focusing on client-side caching mechanisms to reduce load on individual database servers during searches.
Increasing redundancy by replicating database entries across multiple servers without indexing.
If and , what would be the outcome if we solve ?
Difference after subtraction
Product after multiplication
Quotient after division
