Question 4

In top-down design, the overall design of a program is developed before the more detailed aspects of the design.

Accepted Answer

In top-down design, the approach starts with the overall design of the system at the highest level, and then breaks it down into smaller, more detailed parts. This method ensures that the overall structure and vision of the program are established before focusing on specific components.

Question 5

In top-down design, evey module is broken down the same number of levels of submodules.

Accepted Answer

In top-down design, each module can be broken down into submodules at different levels of detail depending on the complexity and requirements of the module, not necessarily the same number of levels for every module.

Question 6

Accepted Answer

The answer of Top-down design is an approach for developing...

Accepted Answer

The answer of Develop a modular design of the typical...

Question 9

A module in Python is a file containing definitions and statements, which must contain a module declaration statement as the first line.

Accepted Answer

A module in Python is indeed a file containing Python definitions and statements, but it does not require a module declaration statement as the first line.

Question 10

Modules in Python have their own namespace.

Accepted Answer

Modules in Python are designed to have their own namespace, which means they can define functions, classes, and variables that won't conflict with those in other modules or the main script.

Question 11

A name clash results when the same identifier is used in more than one function of a given program.

Accepted Answer

A name clash occurs when the same identifier is used for different entities in the same scope or namespace, not necessarily limited to functions.

Question 12

A fully qualified identifier is an identifier with the name of the module that it belongs to prepended to it.

Accepted Answer

A fully qualified identifier includes both the name of the module (or namespace) and the identifier itself, allowing for precise identification of where the identifier is defined or located.

Question 13

The main module of a Python program is the one that is directly executed when a program is run.

Accepted Answer

The main module in a Python program is the script that is directly executed by the Python interpreter, typically the one where execution starts, often checked by `if __name__ == "__main__":` condition.

Question 14

When using the import modulename form of import, the identifiers of the imported module become part of the namespace of the importing module.

Accepted Answer

When using the `import modulename` form of import, the module name itself is added to the namespace, not the individual identifiers. To access an identifier, you must prefix it with the module name, e.g., `modulename.identifier`.

Question 15

When a module is imported using the from modulename import identifier form of import, each imported identifier can be references without needing to be fully qualified.

Accepted Answer

When using the `from modulename import identifier` syntax, the imported identifiers (functions, classes, variables, etc.) can be directly used in the code without needing to prefix them with the module name.

Question 16

To avoid name clashes, and to make clear which module each imported identifier comes from, it is recommended that the import modulename form of import be used.

Accepted Answer

Using the import modulename form (e.g., import math) instead of from modulename import * helps avoid name clashes and makes it clear which module an identifier comes from, improving code readability and maintainability.

Question 17

Privates identifiers (variables) of a given module cannot be accessed by any importing module.

Accepted Answer

Private identifiers (variables) in a module can be accessed by importing modules if they are explicitly exported by the defining module or if the importing module uses reflection or other indirect access methods in languages that support such features.

Question 18

When importing a module using the from modulename import * form of import, the private identifiers of the imported module are not imported, but can still be accessed by the importing module.

Accepted Answer

Private identifiers are not imported when using the from modulename import * form of import.

Question 19

Modules may have Python code outside of all function definitions that is executed when the module is first loaded.

Accepted Answer

This code is executed to initialize the module, and it runs only the first time the module is imported.

Question 20

Built-in function dir() is used to create special directories (folders) for Python modules to be placed.

Accepted Answer

The built-in function dir() is used to find out which names a module defines. It returns a sorted list of strings containing the names defined by a module, not for creating directories.
