How do you write your address in alphanumeric form?

Oh, what a wonderful question! To write your address in alphanumeric form, you simply need to convert each part of your address into letters and numbers. For example, "123 Happy Little Street" would become "123 H4ppy L1ttl3 Str33t". Just remember to keep it simple and enjoy the process of creating something unique!

What are the advantages of a a compiler over an interpreter b an interpreter over a compiler?

Compilers and interpreters do similar jobs, but there are differences:


To run a program you've written, eg in JAVA, it must first be translated into machine code so the computer can read it. This is what compilers and interpreters do.

However, compilers convert the code all at once, save it, then run it; whereas interpreters translate the code one line at a time, as it is run.


Interpreters tend to result in faster translating of code so they are used mostly for debugging. This is because if you used a compiler, you'd have to re-compile your entire project every time you changed one little thing.

However, it's not very efficient to keep re-translating your code once you've finished writing it, because it would waste CPU time. Because of this, once code is done, it is normally compiled so that it runs faster and takes up less space. Another advantage of this is that your code is then much harder to copy without lengthy 'reverse engineering.'

What similarities between analog and digital signals?

ANALOG:continuous,rate of transmission is slow,less reliable 2 transmit,more noise,interference is more

DIGITAL:non continuous,rate of transmission is fast,more reliable 2 transmit,less noise,interference is less

Examples of manual system?

Oh, dude, manual systems are like the dinosaurs of the tech world. We're talking about things like handwritten ledgers, physical filing cabinets, carrier pigeons delivering messages - you know, ancient stuff. It's like trying to survive in the Stone Age of organization.

248 mb eguals how many gb?

Ah, isn't that a lovely question to ponder? Let's see, to convert megabytes to gigabytes, we simply divide by 1024. So, 248 megabytes is equal to 0.2421875 gigabytes. Isn't it wonderful how numbers can transform like magic on a canvas?

Give you an example using 4 to 16 alphanumeric characters and a underscore?

Oh, what a lovely question! Let's imagine a happy little example together. How about we paint a picture using the characters "Joy_1234"? See how those letters and numbers come together like colors on a canvas to create something unique and delightful? Just remember, there are no mistakes in art or in choosing usernames.

What is the difference between networking and network?

Networking refers to the act of connecting with others to exchange information or resources, often for professional or social purposes. It involves building relationships and establishing connections within a group or industry. On the other hand, a network refers to a system of interconnected components, such as computers or devices, that communicate and share resources with each other. In essence, networking is the action of connecting with others, while a network is the structure that facilitates this communication and collaboration.

How long is 256 KB in seconds?

When a computer performs calculations, it does so using bits: the 1's and 0's, which signify a voltage level on a transistor. A "1" means a voltage on the transistor, a "0" means no voltage. These bits, when grouped together, can be used to signify values. For instance, the value of 00000001 is "1", the value of "180" is 10110100. Letters can be encoded into these collections of bits: "A" encoded is written as 01000001. B through Z also each have their own eight digit code.

As it turns out, to encode the entire alphabet and all numbers, eight bits are needed. This collection of eight bits came to be known as a byte. Bytes eventually came to be accepted as a basic unit of information in computers, and so memory sizes were measured in bytes. A kilobyte is a thousand bytes or eight thousand bits. A megabyte is a million bytes, or eight million bits. A gigabyte is a billion bytes or eight billion bits. Now hard drives are measured in terabytes, which would be 1,000,000,000,000 bytes or 8,000,000,000 bits.

Measuring the speed of a kilobyte depends on the processor. If it were a 256 kbps (256 kilobyte per second) processor, it would take exactly one second. If it were a 1 kbps (1 kilobyte per second) processor, it would take 256 seconds. Most computers today operate in the Gbps range: billions of processes per second. To calculate how long it would take on a given processor, use the following formula:

Time = (number of kilobytes) / (processor speed)

For example: an 8 MHz processor processing 256 kilobytes of information would look like this:

Time = (256,000)/(8,000,000) = 0.000032 seconds

That is 32 microseconds, or 32 millionths of a second. It only gets faster with a more powerful processor!

What is faster 8 mega bytes per second or 5 mega bytes per second?

8 is more (faster) than 5. "megabytes per second" refers to the amount of data that can be transferred every second. By the way, if you do a contract for an Internet connection with an ISP, the bandwidth (popularly known as "speed") will usually not be specified in megabytes per second, but rather in megabits per second.

Reply from 4.2.2.1 bytes equals 32 time equals 231ms TTL equals 51?

OK. That's a successful response to "PING 4.2.2.1",

except that it took quite a while to come back .

What's the question ?

What kind of number is 0x00000081-0x00000083?

STOP 0x00000081 errors are likely caused by hardware or device driver issues.

How many 2 byte characters can be transmitted in 20 seconds with a data rate of 28.8 kilobits per second?

1 byte = 8 bits

1 kilobit = 1024 bits

28.8 kilobits = 29491.2 bits

29491.2 bits = 3686.4 bytes

3686.4 bytes = 1843.2 pairs of bytes

1843.2 * 20 = 36864

How do you learn about hex numbers?

Start learning from this article en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexadecimal

GOOGLE that's where I always start for computer research.

What is the common factor of 30 and 60?

30

Any time the smaller number goes directly into the larger, the smaller is the GCF (HCF) and the larger is the LCM/LCD.

What does the term coasters mean when describing DVD burners?

"coaster" is slang for a bad burn, i.e. a failed burn that created an usuable disk. (So all it's good for is a coaster.)

KB mox half around mean?

KB: Knock-Back aka Play hard to get

MOX: No threat

Half-Around: 1/2 of an "Around the world" (oral, vaginal, no anal)
