Which of the following effects is the most important advantage of using algorithmic abstraction in computer programming?
  1. It allows for easier modification.
  2. It makes programs run faster.
  3. It removes platform dependence.
  4. It takes up less working memory.
Explanation
Correct Response: A. The more abstract an algorithm, the more understandable it is and, therefore, the easier to modify. B is incorrect because abstraction often slows down running time. C is incorrect because an abstract algorithm might be dependent on a particular platform. D is incorrect because an abstract algorithm could take up more memory.
