Exam Databricks-Certified-Data-Engineer-Professional Topic 1 Question 84 Discussion

Actual exam question for Databricks's Databricks-Certified-Data-Engineer-Professional exam
Question #: 84
Topic #: 1
A data engineer wants to refactor the following DLT code, which includes multiple table definitions with very similar code.

In an attempt to programmatically create these tables using a parameterized table definition, the data engineer writes the following code.

The pipeline runs an update with this refactored code, but generates a different DAG showing incorrect configuration values for these tables.
How can the data engineer fix this?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

In the provided refactored code, the for loop dynamically attempts to define multiple tables, but the use of a loop within the DLT (@dlt.table) decorator does not work properly because it results in a single function reference being overwritten for each iteration. This leads to an incorrect DAG because all the table definitions end up pointing to the last iteration of the loop.
