D278 Scripting and Programming Foundations - Set 1 - Part 3

Correct Answer: Performing division with integer results, ignoring fractions

Integer division rounds down any fractional parts, producing only whole numbers as a result.

Correct Answer: It causes a divide-by-zero error

In integer division, dividing by zero is mathematically undefined and results in a runtime error, terminating the program.

Correct Answer: Converting a data type to another, such as integer to float

Type conversion occurs when one data type is converted to another, such as converting an integer to a float.

Correct Answer: Converting a value of one type to another type

Type casting is the process of explicitly converting a value of one data type to another, such as converting an integer to a float.

Correct Answer: Evaluates the remainder of division

The modulo operator (%) returns the remainder of a division between two integers.

Correct Answer: 1

Any odd number divided by 2 will have a remainder of 1, so the result of odd number % 2 is always 1.

Correct Answer: A collection of ordered elements of a given data type

An array is a collection of elements of the same data type, stored in contiguous memory locations, and accessed using an index.

Correct Answer: A named value that cannot change

A constant is a value that cannot change during program execution, often used to store fixed values like Pi.

Correct Answer: The location number of an element

An index represents the position of an element in an array, starting from 0.

Correct Answer: A single-item (non-array) variable

A scalar variable is a single variable that holds one value, as opposed to an array or complex data structure.
