Exam 6: Working With Xslt Functional Programming

Do not use the   entity to generate white space, even if you are generating HTML code, because that entity will not be recognized by the XSLT processor.

The number format symbol _____ separates the integer digits from the fractional digits.

The _____ function returns the current node being processed.

  George is developing an XSLT style sheet to display data from research surveys. The structure of the surveys.xml file is shown in the accompanying figure. He comes to you for assistance in preparing the final file. -The response attribute of the question element in George's surveys.xml file can contain paragraphs of text. Which of the following shows the code George could use to insure any white space in the response does not get stripped out when the final file is displayed?

The _____ element creates a variable as a user-defined name that stores a value or an object.

  George is developing an XSLT style sheet to display data from research surveys. The structure of the surveys.xml file is shown in the accompanying figure. He comes to you for assistance in preparing the final file. -George was able to successfully access the functions in the surveyfunctions.xsl file from his new style sheet. However, he is having difficulty getting the functions to work. In looking over his code, you remind him that a function in a named template has to be _____ to be used.

When using the document() function, you must enter the URI for a path on the local machine prefaced with _____, and any spaces or special characters must be replaced with escape codes.

The _____ element includes the contents of an external style sheet file in the current style sheet.

Many of the XPath functions work with sections of text strings called _____.

Named templates can be used to store variable values by having the last action of the template use the value-of element to set the variable value.

 Helena is studying functional programming, using the drawImages template shown in the accompanying figure as an example. She comes to you for help in learning the key features of functional programming. -Helena has heard that every recursive function function must call itself employing the change of state. In the drawImages template, you explain to her that this call is represented by the code _____.

Which of the following shows the correct result of the substring-before function: substring-before("2017-10-05", "-") ?

A(n) recursive template is a template that is not matched to a node set but instead acts like a function to display a calculated value or perform an operation.

  George is developing an XSLT style sheet to display data from research surveys. The structure of the surveys.xml file is shown in the accompanying figure. He comes to you for assistance in preparing the final file. -One of George's research associates has created a style sheet named surveyfunctions.xsl containing functions that will be used in displaying the survey data. Which of the following shows the correct code George should enter in his new style sheet to allow him to use the functions in the surveyfunctions.xsl file?

If you are concerned about name conflicts and want the active style sheet to always have precedence over the external sheet, always use the _____ element.

To set the value of a template parameter, use the _____ element.

Which of the following shows the correct result of the substring function: substring("Harpe Gaming Store", 7, 6) ?

Which of the following shows the correct result of the nested substring functions: substring-before(substring-after("2017-10-05", "-") , "-") ?

The _____ function is an XSLT 1.0 function used to access the contents of an external XML file.
