A programmer is writing a program that is intended to be able to process large amounts of data. Which of the following considera
tions is LEAST likely to affect the ability of the program to process larger data sets?A. How long the program takes to run B. How many programming statements the program contains
C. How much memory the program requires as it runs
D. How much storage space the program requires as it runs
B. How many programming statements the program contains
Explanation:
If a program is intended to be able to process large amounts of data, then the ability of the program to process larger data sets is heavily affected by
execution time
size of memory the program requires
storage space the program requires as it runs.
The length of the statements the program contains does not much affect program performance.
Digital formats allow for lossless data storage, fast editing (without the loss of original source material, ie having to manually clip pieces of film), and made collaboration easier.
