2. A(n) _____ transforms a set of instructions written in a programming language into machine code,
which can be understood by a computer.
a. browser
b. scripter
c. interpreter
d. compiler
ANSWER: d
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. Before the instructions written in a programming
language can be performed, they need to be transformed into
machine code that can be understood by the computer or
computer device by a program called a compiler. This process is
called compilation. Scripting languages, a subset of programming
languages, need to be interpreted, in which the code is read line-
by-line by an interpreter that scans the code for errors even as it
runs. A JavaScript interpreter is built into every web browser, so
to create a JavaScript program you only need a text editor to
write the code and a web browser to run it.

a. A markup language called JavaScript provides tools for interacting with web pages.
b. A scripting language called Java is used to create and compile web browsers.
c. A markup language called HTML is used to define the content and structure of a web page.
d. A scripting language called CSS is used to define how a web page will appear on a device.
ANSWER: c
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. Common markup languages include HTML (Hypertext
Markup Language), used to define the content and structure of
your web page, and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), used to
define how that web page will appear on a specified device.

a. was once supported by Internet Explorer only in a different form called JScript
b. was developed by the European Computer Manufacturers Association
c. has benefited from a single set of governing standards since it was introduced
d. was not supported by major browsers for the first 11 years that it existed
ANSWER: a
FEEDBACK: a. Correct. Shortly after its development, JavaScript was supported
by Microsoft’s Internet Explorer browser in a slightly different
form called JScript. In the beginning, JavaScript was developed
for the Netscape browser by the Netscape developer Brendan
Eich. Unlike with a programming language such as C, from 1995
to 1997 there was no single set of governing standards for
JavaScript.

6. What is the relationship between JavaScript and ECMAScript?
a. JavaScript and ECMAScript are two different scripting languages for web pages.
b. JavaScript is the most important implementation of ECMAScript.
c. ECMAScript is the most recent version of JavaScript.
d. Changes to JavaScript are adopted by ECMAScript within a few years of their release.
ANSWER: b
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. JavaScript is just one implementation of the
ECMAScript standard, but it is the most important. In 1997, a
technical committee composed of developers from the major
browser manufacturers was tasked with the goal of developing a
set of standards for the language. The specification for this
scripting language is called ECMAScript or ECMA-262. Every
year a different version or edition of ECMAScript is released.
Within a few years of release, most browsers will implement the
changes in that edition.

7. The Document Object Model _____.
a. is an important part of ECMAScript
b. specifications are managed by the European Computer Manufacturers Association
c. describes how to access the contents of a web page and user actions within that page
d. describes how to access the features and behaviors of a browser
ANSWER: c
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. The Document Object Model (DOM) describes how to
access the contents of the web page and user actions within that
page. The Browser Object Model (BOM) describes how to
access the features and behaviors of the browser itself.
ECMAScript is the scripting language, but it does not tell you how
to interact with the contents of a website or the browser. The
specifications for the DOM are managed by the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C), the same group managing the development
of HTML and CSS.
b. Incorrect. The Document Object Model (DOM) describes how to
access the contents of the web page and user actions within that
page. The Browser Object Model (BOM) describes how to

8. Which statement about the BOM is correct?
a. JavaScript does not directly interact with the BOM.
b. A formal set of standards for the BOM is maintained by the W3C.
c. The BOM describes how to access a web page’s contents.
d. The BOM is largely the same among the various browsers currently available.
ANSWER: d
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. Each browser is different and implements its own
version of the BOM, but the BOM is largely the same from one
browser to the next because it is to everyone’s advantage to
adhere to a common standard. There is no formal set of
standards for the Browser Object Model. The Browser Object
Model (BOM) describes how to access the features and

define how a web page will appear on a specified device.
d. Incorrect. Scripting languages, a subset of programming
languages, need to be interpreted, in which the code is read line-
by-line by an interpreter that scans the code for errors even as it
runs. A scripting language belongs to a subcategory of
programming languages that do not require compiling but instead
are run directly from a program or script. A programming

4. Which statement is correct?
a. A markup language called JavaScript provides tools for interacting with web pages.
b. A scripting language called Java is used to create and compile web browsers.
c. A markup language called HTML is used to define the content and structure of a web page.
d. A scripting language called CSS is used to define how a web page will appear on a device.
ANSWER: c
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. Common markup languages include HTML (Hypertext
Markup Language), used to define the content and structure of
your web page, and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), used to
define how that web page will appear on a specified device.
Examples of scripting languages include JavaScript, PHP, Perl,
and Python. The browser that interacts with the web was created
and compiled using a programming language like C++.

5. JavaScript _____.
a. was once supported by Internet Explorer only in a different form called JScript
b. was developed by the European Computer Manufacturers Association
c. has benefited from a single set of governing standards since it was introduced
d. was not supported by major browsers for the first 11 years that it existed
ANSWER: a
FEEDBACK: a. Correct. Shortly after its development, JavaScript was supported
by Microsoft’s Internet Explorer browser in a slightly different
form called JScript. In the beginning, JavaScript was developed
for the Netscape browser by the Netscape developer Brendan
Eich. Unlike with a programming language such as C, from 1995
to 1997 there was no single set of governing standards for
JavaScript.

6. What is the relationship between JavaScript and ECMAScript?
a. JavaScript and ECMAScript are two different scripting languages for web pages.
b. JavaScript is the most important implementation of ECMAScript.
c. ECMAScript is the most recent version of JavaScript.
d. Changes to JavaScript are adopted by ECMAScript within a few years of their release.
ANSWER: b
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. JavaScript is just one implementation of the
ECMAScript standard, but it is the most important. In 1997, a
technical committee composed of developers from the major
browser manufacturers was tasked with the goal of developing a
set of standards for the language. The specification for this
scripting language is called ECMAScript or ECMA-262. Every
year a different version or edition of ECMAScript is released.
Within a few years of release, most browsers will implement the
changes in that edition.

7. The Document Object Model _____.
a. is an important part of ECMAScript
b. specifications are managed by the European Computer Manufacturers Association
c. describes how to access the contents of a web page and user actions within that page
d. describes how to access the features and behaviors of a browser
ANSWER: c
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. The Document Object Model (DOM) describes how to
access the contents of the web page and user actions within that
page. The Browser Object Model (BOM) describes how to
access the features and behaviors of the browser itself.
ECMAScript is the scripting language, but it does not tell you how
to interact with the contents of a website or the browser. The
specifications for the DOM are managed by the World Wide Web
Consortium (W3C), the same group managing the development
of HTML and CSS.
b. Incorrect. The Document Object Model (DOM) describes how to
access the contents of the web page and user actions within that
page. The Browser Object Model (BOM) describes how to
access the features and behaviors of the browser itself.

8. Which statement about the BOM is correct?
a. JavaScript does not directly interact with the BOM.
b. A formal set of standards for the BOM is maintained by the W3C.
c. The BOM describes how to access a web page’s contents.
d. The BOM is largely the same among the various browsers currently available.
ANSWER: d
FEEDBACK: a. Incorrect. Each browser is different and implements its own
version of the BOM, but the BOM is largely the same from one
browser to the next because it is to everyone’s advantage to
adhere to a common standard. There is no formal set of
standards for the Browser Object Model. The Browser Object
Model (BOM) describes how to access the features and
behaviors of the browser itself. The full implementation of
JavaScript is built on three foundations: ECMAScript, the DOM,
and the BOM.
