Suggested Answer: A

The name of the default file where Terraform stores the state isterraform.tfstate. This file contains a JSON representation of the current state of the infrastructure managed by Terraform. Terraform uses this file to track the metadata and attributes of the resources, and to plan and apply changes. By default, Terraform stores the state file locally in the same directory as the configuration files, but it can also be configured to store the state remotely in a backend.Reference= [Terraform State], [State File Format]

Haha, 'terraform.tfstate' - that's such a Terraform thing to do. Bet they spent hours debating the perfect file name. 'Terraformtfstate' just sounds like something a marketing team would come up with.

Yeah, 'terraform.tfstate' sounds right to me too. Though I wonder why they didn't just call it 'state.tf' or something more straightforward. Terraform developers must have a flair for the dramatic.

Oh, I know this one! Isn't it 'terraform.tfstate'? I remember reading about it in the Terraform documentation. It makes sense that they would use a more descriptive file name.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I know Terraform stores the state somewhere, but I can't remember the exact file name. I'm guessing it's not just 'Terraformtfstate' though, that seems a bit too simple.
