[Year 12 SofDev] SD U3O1 KK07

[7]

Thanks, Adrian.

So how can students prepare for a question based on *SD U3O1 KK07 - **A
programming language as a method for developing working modules that meet
specified needs*

*Question A3: To what degree is a programming language a method for
developing working modules that meet specified needs?*
A. Not at all
B. It's better than a compiler but worse than an algorithm.
C. Really, quite a lot when you sit down and really think about it.
D. It's more important than *God*.
E. I don't understand the question and there is no "E" option in section A.
Give me a mark anyway.

Regards

*7 aka Sven*

Not at all mysterious.
