3.1.4 Evaluation

• The functionality of a program refers to how well it meets the original requirements and specifications.
• The efficiency of a program measures how optimized it is in terms of resource usage, such as memory and processing time.
• Maintainability refers to how easy a program is to update, debug, and extend in the future.
• Match the data gathering method with its purpose:

  User testing ↔️ Usability feedback

  Performance monitoring ↔️ Measure efficiency

  Code analysis ↔️ Assess robustness

  Automated testing ↔️ Verify functionality
• Abstraction in design refers to how well implementation details are hidden to expose a clean, intuitive interface.
• To evaluate the functionality of a program, you should assess how well it meets the original requirements and specifications.
