- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
B. False

Explanation
Validation and verification are not the same and do not work in the same way. Verification refers to the process of evaluating a system or component to determine whether it meets the specified requirements.

Therefore, the correct answer is false.

- C.
  
  Check digit
- D.
  
  Range check
Correct Answer
B. Type check

Explanation
A type check validation would ensure that the input in a field with a 'numeric' datatype is indeed a number.

This helps to ensure that the data entered is in the correct format and reduces the chances of errors or inconsistencies.

  Check digit
- D.
  
  Range check
Correct Answer
C. Check digit

Explanation
A check digit is a form of validation that is used to verify the accuracy of a series of numbers. It involves adding an extra digit to the end of the number sequence, which is calculated based on the other digits in the sequence. By recalculating the check digit and comparing it to the original, you can determine if the series of numbers was entered correctly. This method is commonly used in barcodes, credit card numbers, and identification numbers to ensure accuracy and detect errors in data entry.

Explanation
When you choose a new password and have to enter it twice, it is an example of verification. Verification is the process of checking if the entered data matches the original data.

In this scenario, the system may validate the password to ensure it meets the required complexity or length.
