Procedural Programming Quiz

What is procedural programming?

• A programming approach that emphasizes parallel execution of code.

• A programming style that focuses on event-driven programming.

• A programming paradigm based on the concept of procedure calls and sequential execution of statements.

• A programming paradigm based on the concept of objects and classes.

What are the key features of procedural programming?

• Uses object-oriented approach

• Relies on event-driven programming

• Involves non-linear top-down approach

• Focuses on procedures or functions and uses a linear top-down approach

What are the advantages of using procedural programming?

• Limited functionality, more prone to errors

• Easier debugging and maintenance, better performance

• Less readable code, more difficult to maintain

• Slower performance, harder debugging

What are the disadvantages of using procedural programming?

• No code duplication

• Code duplication, lack of reusability, difficulty in managing large codebases

• High reusability of code

• Easy to manage large codebases

What are some common examples of procedural programming languages?

• Java, Python, and Ruby

• C, Pascal, and BASIC

• HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

• SQL, Swift, and R

What is a procedure in procedural programming?

• A software application

• A programming language

• A set of instructions or a function that performs a specific task

• A type of data structure

What is the difference between procedural programming and object oriented programming?

• Procedural programming uses only loops and conditions, while object oriented programming uses only functions and methods.

• Procedural programming does not support data encapsulation, while object oriented programming does not support inheritance.

• Procedural programming focuses on procedures or functions while object oriented programming focuses on objects and classes.

• Procedural programming does not allow for code reusability, while object oriented programming does not allow for modularity.

What is the role of functions in procedural programming?

• Functions have no role in procedural programming

• Functions help to break down the program into smaller, manageable tasks or subroutines.

• Functions are only used in object-oriented programming

• Functions make the program more complex and difficult to manage

How does procedural programming handle data?

• Procedures or functions

• Declarative programming

• Object-oriented programming

• Event-driven programming

What are some best practices for writing procedural programs?

• Use random variable names, avoid comments, and write the entire program in one long block of code.

• Follow a consistent naming convention, use comments to explain complex sections, and break down the program into smaller, manageable tasks.
