NEW QUESTION 2

This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determine if it is correct.
The duplication of code so that modifications can happen in parallel is known as separating.
Select the correct answer if the underlined text does not make the statement correct. Select "No change is needed'' if the underlined text makes the statement correct.

• A. No change is needed
• B. branching
• C. merging
• D. splitting

Answer: B

Explanation:
When you develop applications in a team-based environment, you might need to access multiple versions of your application at the same time. If you copy one or more areas of your code into a separate branch, you can update one copy while you preserve the original version, or you can update both branches to meet different needs. Depending on your development goals, you can later merge the changes from multiple branches to create a single version that reflects all changes

NEW QUESTION 3

You create an object of type ANumber. The class is defined as follows.

What is the value of _number after the code is executed?

• A. Null
• B. 3
• C. 7

Answer: C

NEW QUESTION 4

You run the following code.

What will the value of the variable iResult be?

• D. 4

Answer: C

NEW QUESTION 5

You need to allow a consumer of a class to modify a private data member. What should you do?

• A. Provide a public function that assigns a value to the data member.
• B. Create global variables in the class.
• C. Assign a value directly to the data member.
• D. Provide a private function that assigns a value to the data member.

Answer: A

Explanation:
In this example (see below), the Employee class contains two private data members, name and salary. As private members, they cannot be accessed except by member methods. Public methods named GetName and Salary are added to allow controlled access to the private members. The name member is accessed by way of a public method, and the salary member is accessed by way of a public read-only property.
Note: The private keyword is a member access modifier. Private access is the least permissive access level. Private members are accessible only within the body of the class or the struct in which they are declared
Example:
class Employee2
{
private string name = "FirstName, LastName"; private double salary = 100.0;
public string GetName()
{
return name;
}
public double Salary
{
get { return salary; }
}
}

NEW QUESTION 6

You execute the following code.

How many times will the word Hello be printed?

• A. 49
• B. 50
• C. 51
• D. 100

Answer: B

Explanation:
The mod operator computes the remainder after dividing its first operand by its second. All numeric types have predefined remainder operators.
In this case the reminder will be nonzero 50 times (for i with values 1, 3, 5,..,99).

NEW QUESTION 7

This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determine if it is correct.
The benefit of using a transaction when updating multiple tables is that the update cannot fail.
Select the correct answer if the underlined text does not make the statement correct. Select "No change is needed" if the underlined text makes the statement correct.

• A. No change is needed
• B. succeeds or fails as a unit
• C. finishes as quickly as possible
• D. can be completed concurrently with other transactions

Answer: B

Explanation:
The benefit of using a transaction when updating multiple tables is that the update succeeds or fails as a unit.

NEW QUESTION 8

What are two methods that can be used to evaluate the condition of a loop at the start of each iteration? (Each correct answer presents a complete solution. Choose two. )

• A. For
• B. D
• C. . . While
• D. If
• E. While

Answer: AD

Explanation:
For and While constructs check at the start of each iteration.

NEW QUESTION 9

This question requires that you evaluate the underlined text to determine if it is correct.
The duplication of code so that modifications can happen in parallel is known as separating.
Select the correct answer if the underlined text does not make the statement correct. Select "No change is needed'' if the underlined text makes the statement correct.

• A. No change is needed
• B. branching
• C. merging
• D. splitting

Answer: B

Explanation:
When you develop applications in a team-based environment, you might need to access multiple versions of your application at the same time. If you copy one or more areas of your code into a separate branch, you can update one copy while you preserve the original version, or you can update both branches to meet different needs. Depending on your development goals, you can later merge the changes from multiple branches to create a single version that reflects all changes.

NEW QUESTION 11

You need to ensure the data integrity of a database by resolving insertion, update, and deletion anomalies.
Which term is used to describe this process in relational database design?

• A. Isolation
• B. Normalization
• C. Integration
• D. Resolution

Answer: B

Explanation:
Database normalization is the process of organizing the fields and tables of a relational database to minimize redundancy. Normalization usually involves dividing large tables into smaller (and less redundant) tables and defining relationships between them. The objective is to isolate data so that additions, deletions, and modifications of a field can be made in just one table and then propagated through the rest of the database using the defined relationships.

NEW QUESTION 12

The purpose of a constructor in a class is to:

• A. Initialize an object of that class.
• B. Release the resources that the class holds.

All objects in .NET inherit from which item?

• A. the System.Object class
• B. a value type
• C. a reference type
• D. the System.Type class

Answer: A

Explanation:
The System.Object class supports all classes in the .NET Framework class hierarchy and provides low-level services to derived classes. This is the ultimate base class of all classes in the .NET Framework; it is the root of the type hierarchy.

NEW QUESTION 14

In the application life cycle, the revision of an application after it has been deployed is referred to as:

• A. Unit testing

NEW QUESTION 15

Which two types of information should you include in an effective test case? (Choose two.)

• A. the expected result from testing the case
• B. multiple actions combined as a single step to test the case
• C. any pre-conditions necessary to test the case
• D. the stakeholders who originated the test case

Answer: AB

Explanation:
You can create manual test cases using Microsoft Test Manager that have both action and validation test steps. You can also share a set of common test steps between multiple test cases called shared steps. This simplifies maintenance of test steps if your application under test changes.
