SECTION A [40 MARKS]
Read the following extract and answer ALL the questions in this section.

Data types are used to define or classify the type of values a variable can store in it. Moreover, it also describes the
possible operations allowed on those values. For example, the integer data type can store an integer value. Possible
operations on an integer include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and modulus.
Abstract data type (ADT) is a concept or model of a data type. Because of ADT, a user does not have to bother about how
that data type has been implemented. Moreover, ADT also takes care of the implementation of the functions on a data
type. Here, the user will have predefined functions on each data type ready to use for any operation. Generally, in ADT, a
user knows what to do without disclosing how to do it. These models are defined in terms of their data items and
associated operations.
