Identifying Sub Procedures

Why would a project manager break down a large project into smaller tasks?

• To make it easier to manage

• To make it more difficult to solve

• To confuse the team members

• To increase the complexity

In a software development project, what can be programmed as a single module?

• Each component of a complex software

• The entire software at once

• Only the main task of the software

• None of the above

What is the purpose of analyzing a problem and breaking it down into smaller chunks?

• To identify the sub procedures required

• To make the problem more complex

• To confuse the programmer

• To avoid writing any code

Imagine you are working on a large software project. What is the advantage of identifying all the sub procedures required to solve a problem in this context?

• Easier to spot existing modules that can be reused

• Increases the complexity of the problem

• Saves developers time and money

• All of the above

What is code reuse?

• Using existing modules to perform tasks

• Writing new code for every task

• Copying and pasting code from other programs

• None of the above

Imagine you are building a calculator app. Why would you identify parameters and return values for each function in your code?

• To define the inputs and outputs of each function

• To make the code more complex

• To confuse the programmer

• To avoid writing any code
