Question

From the following, identify the type of code used by a trading company:
\[ \begin{array}{|l|l|} \hline \textbf{Codes} & \textbf{Dealer Type} \\ \hline 100 – 199 & \text{Cycle tyres} \\ \hline 200 – 299 & \text{Cycle seats} \\ \hline \end{array} \]

• A. Block code
• B. Sequential code
• C. Mnemonic code
• D. Secret code

Hint:

Block codes are ideal for categorizing data into ranges, ensuring systematic and efficient organization. For example, assigning ranges like 100–199 for one category and 200–299 for another simplifies identification and retrieval.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Block codes use a range of numbers to represent specific categories. Here, the range 100–199 is assigned to "Cycle tyres," and 200–299 is assigned to "Cycle seats."
