Topic #: 9
[All SSCP Questions]

What is the key size of the International Data Encryption Algorithm (IDEA)?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

JAVA was developed so that the same program could be executed on multiple hardware and operating system platforms, it is not Architecture Specific.

The following answers are incorrect:

Object-oriented. Is not correct because JAVA is object-oriented. It should use the object-oriented programming methodology.

Distributed. Is incorrect because JAVA was developed to be able to be distrubuted, run on multiple computer systems over a network.

Multithreaded. Is incorrect because JAVA is multi-threaded that is calls to subroutines as is the case with object-oriented programming.

A virus is a program that can replicate itself on a system but not necessarily spread itself by network connections.

Based on the requirements, I'd say Jekyll and DocFX are the two tools that can best handle the Markdown documentation, trigger the website recompilation, and integrate with GitHub.

Ah, IDEA, the algorithm so secure it could probably encrypt a message even if you wrote it on a bar of soap and dropped it in the ocean.
