Question 6

Case 1-2
Visual Studio is new to you and you are trying to determine which of its languages is the best match for a couple of the projects on which you and your team are about to embark.
-Steve and Shana on your team are looking for a language that will allow them to create an application that requires a high degree of control; they are not intimidated by complexity, as they have been programming for several years. Which of the following is the best match for them?
A) Visual Basic
B) Visual C#
C) C++
D) Visual F#

Accepted Answer

C++ provides a high degree of control and is known for its complexity, making it an ideal choice for experienced programmers like Steve and Shana who are not intimidated by such challenges. Visual Basic and Visual C# are simpler and less powerful than C++, while Visual F# is specifically designed for functional programming, which may not be the best fit for Steve and Shana's needs.

Question 7

Case 1-1
As you prepare to bring one of the interns in your software development company up to speed on the project on which you are working, you decide to create some illustrations of your programming to make certain key concepts clear to the intern.
