Question

________ code makes change easier because the impact of altering an implementation will be localized to the component being altered.

(a) Orthogonal

(b) Cohesion

(c) Coupling

(d) Balancing

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) Orthogonal

The explanation: Orthogonality, it is argued, promotes reuse in that components can be plugged into new systems without needing any special configuration. Such components will have clear inputs and outputs independent of any wider context.
