Program Development Lifecycle Quiz

What is the first stage in the Program Development Lifecycle (PDLC)?

• Analysis

• Testing

• Design

• Implementation

What is the primary goal of the Abstraction process in software development?

• To simplify the problem by focusing on important aspects

• To ignore essential elements

• To complicate the problem

• To introduce irrelevant details

What is the purpose of decomposing a problem in software development?

• To make the problem more complex

• To focus on irrelevant details

• To promote disorganization

• To break down the problem into smaller, more manageable subproblems

What does the Identification of the Problem stage in PDLC focus on?

• Clearly defining the program's goals

• Avoiding gathering information

• Ignoring the problem

• Skipping the analysis stage

Why is gathering detailed information crucial in software development?

• To introduce unnecessary complexity

• To complicate the problem-solving process

• To understand the current situation and desired outcome

• To skip the analysis stage

What is a key aspect of defining the scope of a project?

• Testing functionality

• Setting boundaries

• Implementing features

• Optimizing resources

What is the foundation for a program according to the content?

• Testing the system

• Designing the interface

• Gathering requirements

• Optimizing resources

What is essential when defining goals for a program?

• Being specific and measurable

• Ignoring time constraints

• Using complex language

• Setting vague objectives

What helps in ensuring a feasible and effective solution for a program?

• Identifying constraints

• Expanding the scope

• Ignoring user needs

• Avoiding technology limitations

What is a focus during the design stage of a program?

• Analyzing historical data

• Ignoring user feedback

• Planning the program's structure

• Avoiding requirements
