COMPLETE SOLUTIONS
A programming language can belong to multiple paradigms (T/F) correct answer: True
Features of the imperative or procedural paradigm includes correct answer: Manipulation of named data(variables) and conditional statements
(T/F) Logic programming languages divide the program into reasonable sized pieces named functions or procedures or modules or subroutines correct answer: False
Direct execution of one statement at a time sequentially correct answer: Interpretation
simpler semantics and computation expressions in terms of mathematical function are features of which paradigm? correct answer: Functional
Expressing computation in terms of logic predicates is a feature of which paradigm? correct answer: Logic
Inheritance, classes & objects are features of which paradigm correct answer: Object Oriented
A set of principles, concepts and methods that is commonly accepted by members of a group or community correct answer: Programming Paradigm (T/F) Prolog is a functional programming language? correct answer: False
(T/F) the compiler executes the program correct answer: False
The semantic structure of imperative programming languages normally include which of the following validations correct answer: type matching, parameters type in a function declaration should match these in the function call, unicity
(T/F) Functional programming languages are low-level languages correct answer: False
(T/F) compilation of a program is to execute all the statements of the program completely correct answer: False
They syntactic structure of imperative programming languages normally include which of the following units? A. Operators B. keywords C. identifiers D. conditional statements E. loop statements F. variable declaration correct answer: D, E, F
What programming language uses two-step translation with intermediate codes for execution? correct answer: JAVA
(T/F) Interpretation of a program is the direct execution of one statement at a time sequentially. correct answer: True
(T/F) during compilation, all statements of a program in a high-
level language are converted to a low-level language. correct answer: True
A set of primary values and the operations defined on these values correct answer: data type
