What is a Range check ?
Correct answer: B. Check that the input falls within a known range
- A. Check that the input does not exceed some maximum size e.g. 40 characters for a name
- B. Check that the input falls within a known range
- C. Use information about the input to check if it is reasonable rather than an extreme value
- D. None of the mentioned
Explanation
A range check verifies that a value lies between defined lower and upper limits, such as an age being within an allowed interval. A maximum-size check is specifically a size or length check, not the general definition of a range check.
