What does early binding mean?

  1. Determining function calls during runtime

  2. Linking function calls to specific code before runtime

  3. Postponing memory allocation

  4. Compiling code without type checking

The correct answer is: Linking function calls to specific code before runtime

Early binding means that function calls are linked to specific code before runtime. This allows for faster execution of programs since there's no need for the program to determine which code to run at runtime. Option A is incorrect because it's the opposite of what early binding means - function calls are determined during runtime. Option C is incorrect because it's referring to memory allocation, which is not related to function calls. Option D is incorrect because compiling code without type checking is not related to determining function calls before runtime.
