The quote from the text that shows that the author’s purpose is to persuade is D. Critics say that kids stare at computers and TVs all day and do not get enough exercise. The facts stand in counterpoint to this belief.

An argumentative writing prompt is written in order to convince the readers about a particular issue.

According to the author, the fact that children are involved in watching movies, playing games, listening to music, etc doesn't mean that they can't still be productive.

There are some critics that believe that kids stare at computers and TVs all day and do not get enough exercise. This was countered by the author who stated that kids can still engage in exercises or do other productive things.

This information is stored in every IP packet to make sure that the packet is eventually discarded if it cannot find the address
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

TTL

Explanation:

TTL means time -to- live field is a counter that is designed to keep packets from circulating indefinitely in the network case forwarding tables accidentally create cycles. An IP datagram is typically initialized with a TTL of 60 or 64 and the TTL is decremented by one each time it enters a router. If the TTL reaches zero, the router will discard the packet. It is one of the components of the IP datagram

Write the correct word to complete the sentence:
spayn [35]

Answer:

Legend

Explanation:

In English language, a legend can be defined as a traditional narrative or story that is written about a particular person or past events and it's likely to either be a myth or historical facts. Thus, a legend is sometimes an unrealistic story or narration that describe a particular person or an extraordinary event that occured in the past. Also, it's a story about a particular figure, past human events or actions whose origin is unknown, unproven and undocumented in real history

Additionally, the word "legend" was derived from the Latin word "legendus" which simply means something which should be read.

Hence, the most appropriate word to complete the sentence is a legend because there are no proven and documented or written records about how Bolster the Giant terrorised the people of Cornwall. Thus, the complete mythical sentence is then written as;

"According to legend, Bolster the Giant terrorised the people of Cornwall.​"

This is similar to the last problem, except that the first number on a line is an ID number that identifies an account. The same
andre [41]

Answer:

Following are the code to this question:

def getSum(ID):#defining a method getSum that accept an ID

   t= 0#defining a variable t

   while ID!= 0:#defining while loop to check ID not equal to 0

       t+= ID % 10# holding remainder value

       ID = ID // 10#holding quotient value

   return t#return total value

def readRecord(S):#defining a method readRecord that hold list  

   f_Read = open("idInfo.txt","r")#defining a variable f_Read to open file

   for C_ID in f_Read:#defining for loop to hold file value  

       C_ID = C_ID.replace('\n', '')#use replace method

       S[C_ID] = getSum(int(C_ID))#use list to method value

   f_Read.close()#close file

def sortRecord(ID_List, t_List):#defining a sortRecord

   for x in range(len(ID_List) - 1):#defining for loop to calculate the length of list  

       for y in range(0, len(ID_List) - x - 1):#defining for loop to calculate the length of list

           if ID_List[y] > ID_List[y+1]:#defining if block to check value is greater

               ID_List[y], ID_List[y+1] = ID_List[y+1], ID_List[y]#swap the value

               t_List[y], t_List[y+1] = t_List[y+1], t_List[y]#swap the value

def showReport(ID, t):#defining a method showReport that accept id and t

   for i in range(len(ID)):#defining for loop to hold index value

       print(ID[i]," ",t[i])#print index value

def writeRecord(ID_List, t_List):#defining a method writeRecord that accept two list

   f_Write = open("idSorted.txt","w")#defining a variable f_Write to hold store value in file

   for i in range(len(ID_List)):#defining a for loop to store value with index

       f_Write.write(ID_List[i])#hold list value

       f_Write.write(" ")    #for space

       f_Write.write(str(t_List[i]) + "\n")# add index value

   f_Write.close()#close file

def run():#defining method run

   S = {}#defining an empty list

   readRecord(S)#passing list into readRecord method

   ID_List = list(S.keys())#defining a variable that holds key value in list

   t_List = list(S.values())#defining a variable that holds values value in list

   sortRecord(ID_List, t_List)#calling a method sortRecord by passing value

   showReport(ID_List, t_List)#calling a method showReport by passing value

   writeRecord(ID_List, t_List)#calling a method writeRecord by passing value

if "run":

   run()

Output:

Please find the attached file.

Explanation:

In the above program code, 6 method getSum, readRecord, sortRecord,showReport, writeRecord, and run method is defined, in which getSum and readRecord is used a single list store value in parameters, and in other methods, it accepts two parameter to store value in key and values form and use a txt file to store and take value.    

In the run method, an empty list s is declared, that pass into the variable ID_List and t_List, and call the method, in this program two a text file "idInfo.txt" is used, that holds some value in the file, and create another file that is "idSorted.txt", in this file it stores the value in the numerical order of the ID's.
