Exam Terraform-Associate-004 Topic 7 Question 295 Discussion

Actual exam question for HashiCorp's Terraform-Associate-004 exam
Question #: 295
Topic #: 7
In Terraform HCL, an object type of object({name=string, age-number}) would match this value.

Suggested Answer: B Vote an answer

From the official Terraform Type Constraints Documentation:
The object({ name = string, age = number }) type expects:
name to be aquoted string, e.g. " John "
age to be anumber, e.g. 52
Option Bsatisfies both:
{
name = " John " ##Valid string
age = 52 ##Valid number
}
Let ' s analyze the incorrect ones:
#Option A: " fifty two " is not a valid number.
#Option C: John is unquoted (invalid string), and " fifty two " is not a number.
#Option D: name = John is not quoted, making it an invalid string in HCL.
Terraform is strict about type and formatting. Stringsmust be quoted, and numbersmust be numeric literals.
