About this MCQ
This Hard Programming Concepts MCQ checks one syllabus fact.
The question is: “The following statement describes a specific concept. What is it called? a type system where variable types are checked at runtime rather than at compile time.”
The accepted answer is C. Dynamic typing. The following statement describes a specific concept What is it called a type system where variable types are checked at runtime rather than at compile time is answered by Dynamic typing option C Option A Iteration does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of Dynamic typing Option B Modular programming does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of Dynamic typing Remaining alternatives Constant fall outside the same rule and should be eliminated once Dynamic typing is identified Programming Concepts questions of this type reward precise definitions rather than approximate associations Programming Concepts recall of this distinction is a regular item in FPSC PPSC NTS and CSS.
