Question

Which of the following should be the PRIMARY consideration when validating a data analytic algorithm that has never been used before?

Options

  • AIncreasing speed and efficiency of audit procedures
  • BConfirming completeness and accuracy
  • CEnhancing the design of data visualization
  • DDecreasing the time for data analytics execution

Explanation

When validating a data analytic algorithm that has never been used before, the primary consideration should be ensuring completeness and accuracy of the algorithm's output. This ensures that the algorithm processes data correctly, produces reliable results, and supports decision-making or audit objectives effectively. Without validated accuracy and completeness, other factors such as speed or visualization enhancements are irrelevant.
