    The component stops the execution of the graph if the number of reject events exceeds the result of the formula:

    • Limit + (ramp * number_of_records_processed_so_far)

    • Limit * (ramp + number_of_records_processed_so_far)

    • Limit + ramp

    • Limit * ramp

    Correct Answer
    A. Limit + (ramp * number_of_records_processed_so_far)
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "limit + (ramp * number_of_records_processed_so_far)". This formula calculates the maximum number of reject events that can occur before the component stops the execution of the graph. The "limit" represents a fixed threshold for the number of reject events, while the "ramp" represents the rate at which the threshold increases with each record processed. By multiplying the "ramp" with the "number_of_records_processed_so_far" and adding it to the "limit", the formula dynamically adjusts the threshold based on the progress of record processing.

    What does a watcher do?

    • Eliminating To Do Cues

    • Turn on the debugging mode

    • Displays flow patterns

    • Edit Key specifiers

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Turn on the debugging mode
    Explanation
    A watcher is a feature or tool that allows developers to monitor the execution of their code and track variables or specific sections of code during runtime. Turning on the debugging mode enables the watcher functionality, allowing developers to see the flow patterns and values of variables in real-time. It helps in identifying and fixing bugs or issues in the code by providing valuable insights into the program's execution.

    What is the control partition?

    • It is partion where the same data is run simultaneously in different components

    • Location of multifile's datapartition

    • A partition which divides the control informations

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Location of multifile's datapartition
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Location of multifile's datapartition." The control partition refers to the specific location where the data partition of a multifile is stored. This partition divides the control information for the multifile, allowing for efficient access and management of the data within the file.

    What is component parallelism?

    • A graph with multiple processes running simultaneously on separate data uses component parallelism.

    • A graph that deals with data divided into segments and operates on each segment simultaneously uses component parallelism

    • A graph with multiple phases running simultaneously on separate data uses component parallelism.

    • A graph with multiple components running simultaneously on the same data

    Correct Answer
    A. A graph with multiple processes running simultaneously on separate data uses component parallelism.
    Explanation
    Component parallelism refers to the concept of running multiple processes simultaneously on separate data within a graph. This means that each process operates independently on its own set of data, allowing for parallel execution and potentially improving performance. This approach is commonly used in parallel computing to divide a problem into smaller components that can be processed concurrently, thereby leveraging the power of multiple processors or computing resources.

    What a find splitter component does?

    • Splits the data in to ranges

    • Splits a flow in to different flows

    • Both the above

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Splits the data in to ranges
    Explanation
    A find splitter component is used to split the data into ranges. This means that it takes a set of data and divides it into different groups or segments based on specified criteria. It does not split a flow into different flows, nor does it perform any other function mentioned in the options.

    Which of the following component will you use to parse programatically?

    • Run program

    • Readraw

    • Reformat

    • Run sql

    Correct Answer
    A. Readraw
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "readraw". To parse programmatically means to analyze a program or a piece of code in order to understand its structure and meaning. The "readraw" component is most likely designed to read and interpret raw data, which would be an important step in the parsing process. The other options, such as "run program", "reformat", and "run sql", do not directly relate to parsing programmatically.

    What is a summary file?

    • A file containing information about flows,components ,phases during the most recent run

    • A file containing the summary of the graph run

    • Both (A) and (B)

    • None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. A file containing information about flows,components ,phases during the most recent run
    Explanation
    A summary file is a file that contains information about flows, components, and phases during the most recent run. This file provides a concise overview of the data and activities that occurred during the run, allowing users to quickly access and review important information without having to go through the entire dataset or log files. This summary file is useful for tracking and analyzing the progress and results of a run, making it an essential tool for data analysis and troubleshooting.
