Which operation causes storage slot re-packing?

Tip: Click "Play" to reveal options and start playing.

#A

#B

#C

#D

Explanation:
Changing variable types alters how Solidity packs them into storage slots. This can shift offsets and corrupt existing storage layouts in upgradeable contracts.

What happens to storage slots after contract self-destruct?

Tip: Click "Play" to reveal options and start playing.

#A

#B

#C

#D

Explanation:
Storage is not automatically wiped when a contract self-destructs. The data remains on-chain and can be accessed again if a contract is redeployed at the same address.

Why is bytes32 cheaper than string in storage?

Tip: Click "Play" to reveal options and start playing.

#A

#B

#C

#D

Explanation:
bytes32 has a fixed 32-byte size and fits into a single storage slot. string is dynamically sized and requires additional storage pointers and length metadata.
