Question #2
What is the typical organizing principle of a database?
- A . Selective
- B . Projection
- C . Relational
- D . Modular
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
The relational model is the most common organizing principle of databases. In a relational database, data is organized into tables (or relations), where each table consists of rows and columns. Each row represents a record with a unique identifier, and each column represents a data field. This model allows for easy data retrieval and management through the use of structured query language (SQL).

Question #4
What is scope creep?
- A . Realization that the organization staffing is inadequate
- B . The extent of the project that lacks needed requirements
- C . Small changes in a project that lead to bigger changes
- D . When the project is completed in less than the required time
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
Scope creep refers to the phenomenon where the scope of a project gradually increases over time due to small, incremental changes that were not initially planned or approved. This can happen when: New featuresor requirements are added without proper evaluation or approval. Stakeholders continuously request small changes or additions. Lack of a clear scope definition and change control process.
These small changes can accumulate, leading to significant deviations from the original project plan, affecting the project’s schedule, budget, and overall success.

Question #6
What is a characteristic of algorithms?
- A . No starting or stopping point
- B . Random instructions
- C . Unambiguous rules
- D . Constantly changing
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
An algorithm is a defined set of step-by-step procedures or a set of rules to be followed to perform a specific task or solve a problem.
Here are the characteristics that describe an algorithm:
Unambiguous rules: Each step of an algorithm must be clearly defined and unambiguous. There should be no confusion in interpreting the instructions.
Definiteness: The algorithm should have a clear starting and stopping point, leading to a precise output after a finite number of steps.
Finiteness: Algorithms must terminate after a finite number of steps. They cannot run indefinitely.
Input and Output: An algorithm should take zero or more inputs and produce at least one output.
Therefore, the correct answer is "Unambiguous rules," as it directly reflects the essential characteristic of
an algorithm being precise and clear in its steps.

Question #7
In which state is data considered information?
- A . Raw
- B . Input
- C . Unprocessed
- D . Processed
Correct Answer: D
D

Question #11
When is it better to purchase software rather than build a software solution in-house?
- A . When the company has very specific needs
- B . When the company wants internal growth
- C . When there is a short timeline
- D . When the company wants to develop the skill sets of its internal IT staff
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
It is better to purchase software rather than build a software solution in-house when there is a short timeline. Building software from scratch requires significant time for development, testing, and deployment. Purchasing off-the-shelf software can significantly reduce the time needed to implement a solution.
Other considerations include:
Cost-effectiveness: Pre-built software can be more cost-effective than developing a custom solution, especially when factoring in the costs of development, maintenance, and support.
Immediate availability: Purchased software is usually ready to deploy immediately, whereas custom development can take months or even years.
Proven reliability: Commercial software often has a track record of reliability and user support, reducing the risk of bugs and issues that may arise with custom development.
Therefore, when time is of the essence, purchasing software is the preferable option. References

- B . It takes the most recent instruction and translates it as machine language.
- C . It takes a program written in a high-level language and converts it to a different high-level language program.
- D . It gathers together multiple executable programs and translates them into a readable format.
Correct Answer: A
A
Explanation:
A compiler translates high-level programming language code into machine code, creating an executable program.
Process: The compiler goes through various phases such as parsing, semantic analysis, and optimization to produce the final machine code.
Purpose: This machine code can be executed by the computer’s processor at a later time without the need for the original source code.

Question #19
Which type of systems testing includes having end users test the system with simulated data and the help of the developer?
- A . User Acceptance
- B . Beta
- C . Alpha
- D . Analysis
Correct Answer: C
C
Explanation:
Alpha testing is a type of system testing that involves having end users test the system with simulated data and the help of the developer.
This phase is crucial because:
Early feedback: Users provide early feedback on the usability and functionality of the system.
Bug identification: Developers can identify and fix bugs before the system is released for beta testing or production.
Simulated environment: The testing is done in a controlled, simulated environment, often within the development organization.
Alpha testing is followed by beta testing, where the system is tested in a real-world environment by end users without the developers’ direct involvement.
