ITPEC IP October 2024 — Question 74 of 100

A QR code stores information in a two-dimensional arrangement of dark and light modules. Because data is encoded both horizontally and vertically, a QR code can carry more information than a conventional one-dimensional barcode in a compact area. Position patterns help a scanner locate and orient the symbol, and error correction can permit reading despite limited damage.

Answer (d)

Why not others:
- (a) ASCII assigns numeric character codes and is not a printed two-dimensional symbol

- (b) G-code contains machine-tool or 3D-printer movement instructions

- (c) EAN code is normally represented as a one-dimensional retail barcode

Key rule: QR is a two-dimensional matrix code; EAN is a linear barcode, ASCII encodes characters, and G-code controls machines.
