Explanation
{"question_number": 4, "correct_answer": "B, C", "explanation": "The ~> (pessimistic constraint) operator with a version like ~> 1.2.0 allows only patch-level version increments within the 1.2.x series. It is equivalent to >= 1.2.0, < 1.3.0. Therefore: 1.2.3 (B) is valid - it is within the 1.2.x range. 1.2.9 (C) is valid - it is also within the 1.2.x range. 1.3.0 (D) is invalid - it is at the boundary and the constraint is strictly less than 1.3.0. 1.3.1 (A) is invalid - it exceeds the 1.2.x ceiling. If the constraint were ~> 1.2 (without the patch digit), it would allow up to < 2.0, but the .0 patch digit locks it to the 1.2.x series only.", "generated_by": "claude-sonnet", "llm_judge_score": 5}
