Computer Programming Quiz

What is the purpose of using integrated development environments (IDEs) in programming?

• To highlight syntax errors in the code

• To manage CPU registers

• To translate source code into machine code

• To write code in machine language

Which program translates the source code into machine code that the CPU can understand?

• Assembler

• Compiler

• Interpreter

• IDE

What is the main purpose of writing code in a high-level language like Python?

• To write code in binary language

• To make the code readable by humans

• To manage CPU registers

• To directly execute the code on the CPU

What is the main difference between high-level language and low-level language?

• Low-level language is readable by humans

• High-level language is less readable than low-level language

• High-level language requires knowledge of CPU registers

• Low-level language is designed for a specific CPU architecture

Which type of translator compiles the source code into machine code in one go?

• Compiler

• Interpreter

• Assembler

• Debugger

What is the advantage of using an interpreter to translate and run the code?

• It highlights syntax errors in the code

• It works only on low-level languages

• It compiles the entire code at once

• It stops immediately and shows errors

Which type of translator only works on low-level languages like assembly?

• Assembler

• Debugger

• Interpreter

• Compiler

What does an assembler do with assembly language?

• Highlights syntax errors

• Manages CPU registers

• Compiles it into high-level language

• Translates it into machine code

What is the main advantage of using an integrated development environment (IDE) for programming?

• It provides error diagnostics and interactive run environment

• It only works on low-level languages

• It makes the code less readable

• It allows you to write code in machine language

Why do we prefer to code in a high-level language like Python?

• Because it is designed for a specific CPU architecture

• Because it does not require knowledge of CPU registers

• Because it directly executes the code on the CPU

• Because it is less readable than low-level language
