Question

question 18
an application programming interface (api) is _______.
○ the code the application software uses to take advantage of code written by others
○ the code to interface between an application and a peripheral like a printer
○ the currently active part of an application
○ the code to interface between an application and ram

Explanation:

An API allows one software to interact with another by providing a set of rules and protocols. It enables an application to use code written by others. For example, a weather - app might use an API to get weather data from a weather service provider. The other options are incorrect as an API is not about interfacing with a peripheral like a printer, the active part of an app, or interfacing with RAM.

Answer:

the code the application software uses to take advantage of code written by others
