What type of layout manager is FlowLayout?

  1. Grid-based

  2. Hierarchical

  3. Sequential

  4. Component-oriented

The correct answer is: Sequential

FlowLayout is a type of layout manager that arranges components in a single row or column, depending on the direction specified. This means that the components are laid out sequentially, one after the other, in the order they were added. Option A, grid-based layouts, organize components into a grid with rows and columns, while option B, hierarchical layouts, arranges components in a tree-like structure with parent and child relationships. Option D, component-oriented layouts, focus on specific components and their properties rather than the overall arrangement of components. Therefore, these three options are not the correct answer for the type of layout manager that FlowLayout is.
