Computing Paradigm

Question 1

Fundamental approach to programming and problem solving,
defining how software is designed and implemented.

Answer 1

COMPUTING PARADIGM

Question 2

Uses control structures like loops (for, while), conditionals (if, else), and sequences to create clear, readable code.

Answer 2

STRUCTURED PROGRAMMING

Question 3

Focuses on describing how a program operates with explicit instructions.

Answer 3

IMPERATIVE PROGRAMMING

Question 4

Breaks down tasks into procedures or functions, which encapsulate specific operations.

Answer 4

PROCEDURAL PROGRAMMING

Question 5

Divides programs into separate modules or components, each handling a specific aspect of the application.

Answer 5

MODULAR PROGRAMMING

Question 6

Organizes software around objects that combine data (attributes) and behavior (methods).

Answer 6

OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING(OOP)

Question 7

Specifies what the program should achieve without dictating how to accomplish it.

Answer 7

DECLARATIVE PROGRAMMING

Question 8

Treats computation as the evaluation of mathematical functions, avoiding state changes and mutable data.

Answer 8

FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING

Question 9

Uses facts, rules, and queries to derive conclusions, focusing on problem-solving through logical inference.

Answer 9

LOGIC PROGRAMMING

Question 10

Specialized languages tailored for specific application areas, simplifying tasks in those domains.

Answer 10

DOMAIN-SPECIFIC LANGUAGES (DSLs)

Question 11

Involves executing multiple computations simultaneously to improve performance and responsiveness.

Answer 11

CONCURRENT COMPUTING

Question 12

Executes multiple processes in parallel, using multiple processors or cores to solve large-scale problems efficiently.

Answer 12

PARALLEL COMPUTING

Question 13

Distributes tasks across multiple networked computers, allowing for resource sharing and scalability.

Answer 13

DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING

Question 14

Program behavior is determined by events such as user actions, sensor outputs, or messages.

Answer 14

EVENT-DRIVEN PROGRAMMING

Features: Utilizes event loops and handlers to manage asynchronous tasks efficiently.

Question 15

Employs quantum mechanics principles to perform calculations, offering potential for massive parallelism and complex problem-solving.

Answer 15

QUANTUM COMPUTING

Features: Uses quantum bits (qubits) that can exist in multiple states simultaneously (superposition) and be entangled for complex interactions.

Question 16

Specific framework or architecture used to implement and organize computations.

Answer 16

COMPUTING MODEL

Question 17

A computer architecture model where a single memory stores both instructions and data.

Answer 17

VON NEUMANN ARCHITECTURE

Question 18

An architecture that separates storage and pathways for instructions and data.

Answer 18

HARVARD MODEL

Question 19

Utilizes multiple processors to perform computations simultaneously.

Answer 19

PARALLEL COMPUTING MODEL

Question 20

Uses a network of independent computers to work together on a problem.

Answer 20

DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING MODEL

Question 21

Divides tasks between servers (providing resources/services) and clients (requesting resources/services).

Answer 21

CLIENT-SERVER MODEL

Question 22

All nodes in the network have equal roles and can act as both clients and servers.

Answer 22

PEER-TO-PEER (P2P) MODEL

Question 23

Provides on-demand computing resources and services over the internet.

Answer 23

CLOUD COMPUTING MODEL

Question 24

Utilizes principles of quantum mechanics to perform computations.
