Question

P : “Program is a step by step execution of the instructions”. Given P, which of the following is true ?

• A. Program is a subset of an instruction set.
• B. Program is a sequence of a subset of an instruction set.
• C. Program is a partially ordered set of an instruction set.
• D. All of the above

Answer 1

 Program is a subset of an instruction set.  TRUE

Program is a sequence of a subset of an instruction set.  FALSE {Subroutine is a sequence of a subset of an instruction set}

Program is a partially ordered set of an instruction set.  FALSE

Ans: A

Answer 2

Answer : Program is a subset of an instruction set.

An instruction set is a group of commands for a CPU in machine language. The term can refer to all possible instructions for a CPU or a subset of instructions to enhance its performance in certain situations.

All CPUs have instruction sets that enable commands to the processor directing the CPU to switch the relevant transistors. Some instructions are simple read, write and move commands that direct data to different hardware.

Answer 3

 Program is a subset of an instruction set.  TRUE 

Program is a sequence of a subset of an instruction set.  FALSE {Subroutine is a sequence of a subset of an instruction set} 

Program is a partially ordered set of an instruction set.  FALSE

Ans: A

I think it is A, bcz rest seems to be false ...

Sorry, why is C false? The google book links are useless to share because it usually won't open for others.

After following that link i concluded that it is seems false to me...might be m wrong... :) but acc to me A should be ans.:)

if u have any pdf or link regarding option C so plzz share it will be helpful to me sir :)
