ITPEC IP April 2018 — Question 49 of 100

Answer (b)

Why not others:
- separating all numeric and character items can break meaningful relationships among fields

- numbers and text often require different alignment, so one universal justification is inappropriate

- output layout should primarily support the reader's task, not make the generating program easier to maintain

Key rule: Design output for user comprehension with consistent structure, clear grouping, suitable alignment, labels, and emphasis.
