This form serves as an example or template for the query, hence the name "query by example". Natural language modification and notational resonance are not commonly used methods of database searching. Keyword searching is a type of searching where a search engine matches a user’s keywords to the contents of Web pages.

Question 19

Software requires many files because ____.
A) there is too much data to store on one file
B) it allows flexibility and efficiency
C) it allows for easy maintenance
D) it allows for quicker installation

Accepted Answer

Software requires many files because using multiple files allows for flexibility and efficiency in the organization of code and data. This can also make it easier to maintain and update the software over time. Additionally, using multiple files can help with quicker installation by allowing for incremental updates and only requiring the necessary files to be transferred. The answer A is incorrect because splitting data across multiple files is not the primary reason for using multiple files in software. The answer C is partially correct, but maintenance is not the sole reason for using multiple files. The answer D is incorrect because using multiple files does not necessarily guarantee quicker installation; it depends on the specifics of how the software is designed and implemented.
