ITPEC IP April 2020 — Question 78 of 100

A two-dimensional code stores more information than a one-dimensional barcode in an equivalent area. It encodes data across both horizontal and vertical dimensions, giving it much greater density.

Answer (c)

Why not others:
- data is not read horizontally only

- many 2D codes include error correction, not merely error detection

- matrix codes can usually be read across a broad range of orientations because readers locate their position patterns

Key rule: Two-dimensional symbols gain capacity and robustness by arranging encoded elements across an area rather than along one line.
