Programming Paradigms Quiz

What is the main characteristic of pure functions in the Functional Paradigm?

• The output depends only on the input

• They call themselves during execution

• They express facts and rules about a system

• They encapsulate state and behavior

In the context of the Functional Paradigm, what does "referential transparency" mean?

• Functions can be passed as arguments or returned from other functions

• Variables cannot be modified after initialization

• An expression can be replaced with its value without changing the program's behavior

• Functions that call themselves during execution

Which of the following is NOT a common programming paradigm mentioned in the text?

• Imperative (Procedural) Paradigm

• Functional Paradigm

• Logical Paradigm

• Declarative Paradigm

Which paradigm follows a declarative approach rather than an imperative approach?

• Imperative (Procedural) Paradigm

• Functional Paradigm

• Logical Paradigm

• Object-Oriented Paradigm

Which of the following is NOT a feature of the Functional Paradigm?

• Pure functions

• Recursion

• Referential transparency

• Mutable variables

What is the purpose of inheritance in Object-Oriented Programming?

• Hiding unnecessary details in classes

• Deriving a class from another class for code reuse and hierarchy

• Reducing data to a simplified representation

• Allowing variables, functions, or objects to take on multiple forms

What is the concept of Polymorphism in Object-Oriented Programming?

• Hiding unnecessary details in classes

• Deriving a class from another class for a hierarchy

• Simplifying the representation of data

• The ability of an entity to take on multiple forms

Which of the following is NOT a feature of the Object-Oriented Paradigm?

• Encapsulation

• Inheritance

• Data Abstraction

• Referential transparency

What is the main feature of the Imperative (Procedural) Paradigm?

• Functions that call themselves during execution

• Treating computation as an evaluation of mathematical functions

• Statements structured into procedures with step-by-step instructions

• Expressing facts and rules about problems within a system

What is the main idea behind the Logical Paradigm?

• Expressing knowledge in a way that does not depend on the implementation

• Treating computation as an evaluation of mathematical functions

• Structuring statements into procedures with step-by-step instructions

• Representing real-world entities by classes
