Answers
Suggested answer: C

Explanation:

The HTML commands that would help the developer to complete the task successfully are <h1>Upload Your Short Videos</h1> and <button>upload now</button>. The <h1> tag defines a heading level 1, which is the largest and most important heading on a webpage. The <button> tag defines a clickable button that can perform some action when clicked. The other options are not suitable for the task, as they either use the wrong tags or do not create a clickable button. The <span> tag defines a section of text with no specific meaning or formatting. The <p> tag defines a paragraph of text. The <hl> tag does not exist in HTML. Reference: HTML Tags - W3Schools

Parametrization.
Answers
Suggested answer: D

Explanation:

The correct answer is D: Parametrization. Parameterized SQL queries allow you to place parameters in an SQL query instead of a constant value. A parameter takes a value only when the query is executed, allowing the query to be reused with different values and purposes. Parameterized SQL statements are available in some analysis clients, and are also available through the Historian SDK.

For example, you could create the following conditional SQL query, which contains a parameter for the collector's name: SELECT* FROM ExamsDigest WHERE coursename=? ORDER BY tagname SQL Injection is best prevented through the use of parameterized queries.

Misspellings.
Answers
Suggested answer: D, E

Explanation:

1. Duplicates

2. Misspellings

The most common data quality issues are difficult to resolve in Excel because of their rigidity. It forces analysts to do a ton of manual work, which results in a high probability of an error being introduced to the data set. Those common issues include:

- Blanks

- Nulls

- Outliers

- Duplicates

- Extra spaces

- Misspellings

- Abbreviations and domain-specific variations

- Formula error codes

When introduced, these errors can skew or even invalidate the resulting analysis. A smart tool would minimize the possibility of error by automating the manual work. In Excel, you might look for data quality issues in one of two ways. First, you might use auto filters on specific columns to scan for anomalies and blanks or you might use a pivot table to find gaps and discrepancies.

In either case, you're scanning for the anomalies yourself. Suffice it to say that's not a very efficient process. It also means accuracy is only as good as the analyst's eye, so the probability of error varies throughout the day.

Explanation:

A measure of central tendency (also referred to as measures of centre or central location) is a summary measure that attempts to describe a whole set of data with a single value that represents the middle or centre of its distribution.

There are three main measures of central tendency: the mode, the median and the mean. Each of these measures describes a different indication of the typical or central value in the distribution.

What is the mode?

The mode is the most commonly occurring value in a distribution.

The most commonly occurring value is 54, therefore the mode of this distribution is 54 years.

Which of the following value is the measure of dispersion "range" between the scores of ten students in a test.

Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The correct answer is: 60 Range is the interval between the highest and the lowest score.

Range is a measure of variability or scatteredness of the varieties or observations among themselves and does not give an idea about the spread of the observations around some central value.

Symbolically R = Hs - Ls.

Where R = Range; Hs is the 'Highest score' and Ls is the Lowest Score.

The scores of ten students in a test are: 17, 23, 30, 36, 45, 51, 58, 66, 72, 77.

The highest score is 77 and the lowest score is 17.

So the range is the difference between these two scores Range = 77 - 17 = 60

Answers
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

The correct answer is B: Data blending.

Data blending is combining multiple data sources to create a single, new dataset, which can be presented visually in a dashboard or other visualization and can then be processed or analyzed.

Enterprises get their data from a variety of sources, and users may want to temporarily bring together different datasets to compare data relationships or answer a specific question. Data append is incorrect. Data append is a process that involves adding new data elements to an existing database. An example of a common data append would be the enhancement of a company's customer files. A data append takes the information they have, matches it against a larger database of business data, allowing the desired missing data fields to be added. Normalize data is incorrect.

Data normalization is the process of structuring your relational customer database, following a series of normal forms. This improves the accuracy and integrity of your data while ensuring that your database is easier to navigate. Data merge is incorrect. Data merging is the process of combining two or more data sets into a single data set.

A data analyst wants to create "Income Categories" that would be calculated based on the existing variable "Income". The "Income Categories" would be as follows:

Income category 1: less than $1.

Income category 2: more than $1 and less than $20,000.

Income category 3: more than $20,001 and less than $40,000.

Income category 4: more than $40,001.

Data merge is incorrect. Data merging is the process of combining two or more data sets into a single data set. Data blending is incorrect.

Data blending involves pulling data from different sources and creating a single, unique, dataset for visualization and analysis.

Data append is incorrect. A data append is a process that involves adding new data elements to an existing database.
