I thought it was XML for some reason!

HCL is the only one that makes sense here.

I remember reading about different configuration languages, but I can’t recall if Terraform supports XML or not. HCL seems right though.

I’m torn between HCL and YAML. I know YAML is popular, but I think Terraform specifically uses HCL.

I'm leaning towards YAML, since that's a common configuration format. But I could also see Terraform supporting XML or even Python. I'll have to review my notes to be sure.

HCL makes the most sense to me. Terraform is all about declarative infrastructure, and HCL is a great fit for that kind of configuration. I'm confident that's the right answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know Terraform is used for infrastructure as code, but I can't remember the exact configuration language it supports. I'll have to think this through.

I'm pretty sure Terraform uses HCL, or HashiCorp Configuration Language, to define infrastructure. That's the one I've seen used in all the examples.

HCL all the way! It's like the secret handshake of the Terraform club.

YAML, huh? I bet the Terraform developers just wanted to keep it 'on brand' with the rest of the DevOps tools.

Python? Really? I'd rather use a random number generator to configure my infrastructure than resort to that.

C) HCL, of course! Terraform wouldn't be Terraform without its infamous HashiCorp Configuration Language.

Hmm, I thought Terraform used Klingon for its configuration language. Oh wait, that's just for the Starfleet version.
