In a certain computer program, two positive integers are added together, resulting in an overflow error. Which of the following

best explains why the error occurs?
A) The program attempted to perform an operation that is considered an undecidable problem.
B) The precision of the result is limited due to the constraints of using a floating-point representation.
C) The program can only use a fixed number of bits to represent integers; the computed sum is greater than the maximum representable value.
D) The program cannot represent integers; the integers are converted into decimal approximations, leading to rounding errors.

The option that best explains why the error occurs is that The program can only use a fixed number of bits to represent integers; the computed sum is greater than the maximum representable value.

<h3>Can programs represent integers?</h3>

An integer value is known to be often listed out in the source code of a program in a way called a sequence of digits that is said to be optionally prefixed with + or −. Note that some programming languages do use other notations, like hexadecimal.

Computers are known to use a a fixed number of bits to show an integer. The most -used bit-lengths for integers are known to be 8-bit, 16-bit, 32-bit or 64-bit.

Develop a C program that calculates the final score and the average score for a student from his/her (1)class participation, (2)
Ghella [55]

Answer:

#include <iomanip>

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(){

char name[100];

float classp, test, assgn, exam, prctscore,ave;

cout<<"Student Name: ";

cin.getline(name,100);

cout<<"Class Participation: "; cin>>classp;

while(classp <0 || classp > 100){  cout<<"Class Participation: "; cin>>classp; }

cout<<"Test: "; cin>>test;

while(test <0 || test > 100){  cout<<"Test: "; cin>>test; }

cout<<"Assignment: "; cin>>assgn;

while(assgn <0 || assgn > 100){  cout<<"Assignment: "; cin>>assgn; }

cout<<"Examination: "; cin>>exam;

while(exam <0 || exam > 100){  cout<<"Examination: "; cin>>exam; }

cout<<"Practice Score: "; cin>>prctscore;

while(prctscore <0 || prctscore > 100){  cout<<"Practice Score: "; cin>>prctscore; }

ave = (int)(classp + test + assgn + exam + prctscore)/5;

cout <<setprecision(1)<<fixed<<"The average score is "<<ave;  

return 0;}

Explanation:

The required parameters such as cin, cout, etc. implies that the program is to be written in C++ (not C).

So, I answered the program using C++.

Line by line explanation is as follows;

This declares name as character of maximum size of 100 characters

char name[100];

This declares the grading items as float

float classp, test, assgn, exam, prctscore,ave;

This prompts the user for student name

cout<<"Student Name: ";

This gets the student name using getline

cin.getline(name,100);

This prompts the user for class participation. The corresponding while loop ensures that the score s between 0 and 100 (inclusive)

<em> cout<<"Class Participation: "; cin>>classp; </em>

<em> while(classp <0 || classp > 100){  cout<<"Class Participation: "; cin>>classp; } </em>

This prompts the user for test. The corresponding while loop ensures that the score s between 0 and 100 (inclusive)

<em> cout<<"Test: "; cin>>test; </em>

<em> while(test <0 || test > 100){  cout<<"Test: "; cin>>test; } </em>

This prompts the user for assignment. The corresponding while loop ensures that the score s between 0 and 100 (inclusive)

<em> cout<<"Assignment: "; cin>>assgn; </em>

<em> while(assgn <0 || assgn > 100){  cout<<"Assignment: "; cin>>assgn; } </em>

This prompts the user for examination. The corresponding while loop ensures that the score s between 0 and 100 (inclusive)

<em> cout<<"Examination: "; cin>>exam; </em>

<em> while(exam <0 || exam > 100){  cout<<"Examination: "; cin>>exam; } </em>

This prompts the user for practice score. The corresponding while loop ensures that the score s between 0 and 100 (inclusive)

<em> cout<<"Practice Score: "; cin>>prctscore; </em>

<em> while(prctscore <0 || prctscore > 100){  cout<<"Practice Score: "; cin>>prctscore; } </em>

This calculates the average of the grading items

ave = (int)(classp + test + assgn + exam + prctscore)/5;

This prints the calculated average

cout <<setprecision(1)<<fixed<<"The average score is "<<ave;

What does it mean by MYRIAD of data?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The term Myriad means an indefinitely large number of things. And when we say Myriad of data, we mean an indefinitely large amount of data like in Petabytes.

Explanation:

What it does implies is that you are dealing with a large amount of data. And hence we are dealing with something like bigData. And hence, technologies related to BigData are going to operate. And this term is used as a noun as well as an adjective when we talk about English. And hence, you can use it with "a" or without the "a" as well. It has been a part of reputable English and has been repeatedly used by top authors like Milton.

How do I type over Images (photo posted ​

Oh a document, I do not believe that you have type on images, but if you were to type a text in a app called PicsArt and saved it and then put it onto the document over the picture it would work.
