1. Which device matches the original condition?

  1. LAB-A only
  2. Both devices
  3. Neither device
Show answer and explanation for question 1

Correct answer: A. LAB-A only

9 < 10, but 10 < 10 is false.

2. Why return results from a function?

  1. To require admin access
  2. To separate calculation from display
  3. To remove all tests
Show answer and explanation for question 2

Correct answer: B. To separate calculation from display

Returned values can be tested and reused independently.

3. Which test is especially useful for threshold logic?

  1. Only a typical value
  2. Only file size
  3. A value exactly at the boundary
Show answer and explanation for question 3

Correct answer: C. A value exactly at the boundary

Equality reveals < versus <= mistakes.

4. The rule flags free capacity below 10%. A valid row has free_pct 10. Which result fits the rule?

  1. OK, because exactly 10 is outside the strict below-10 condition.
  2. REVIEW, because 10 is close to the threshold.
  3. INVALID, because a threshold value cannot be classified.
Show answer and explanation for question 4

Correct answer: A. OK, because exactly 10 is outside the strict below-10 condition.

A strict boundary is a requirement, not a judgement about closeness. Test 9, 10 and 11 independently. A change from < to <= incorrectly flags the boundary row.

5. A CSV capacity field contains unknown. Which reporting behavior preserves the evidence?

  1. Replace unknown with zero so the field stays numeric.
  2. Mark the row invalid and retain the raw source value and reason.
  3. Drop the row and call the remaining population healthy.
Show answer and explanation for question 5

Correct answer: B. Mark the row invalid and retain the raw source value and reason.

Unknown is not measured zero. Conversion or silent deletion creates an unsupported conclusion. The report keeps a rejected value visible so the collector and analyst can investigate it.
