Why operating system is pivotal in teaching and learning

Computers and Technology
1 answer:
trasher [3.6K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Without it information flow is impossible

Explanation:

The word 'pivotal' also means crucial or vital, and so we need to consider what an operating system actually does.

Remember, merely having all the hardware of a computer would not allow you to run (install and use) programs. It is by means of an operating system that teaching programs can be installed, and it is also by means of an operating system learning can take place.

For example, a student can decode (learn) instructions/lessons from his teacher via a software program; and the software program needs an operating system to open (run) the program.

Create a class called Clock to represent a Clock. It should have three private instance variables: An int for the hours, an int
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

public class Clock

{

private int hr; //store hours

private int min;  //store minutes

private int sec; //store seconds

public Clock ()

{

}

public Clock (int hours, int minutes, int seconds)

public void setTime (int hours, int minutes, int seconds)

}

 

 //The time is incremented by one second

 //If the before-increment time is 23:59:59, the time

     hr = 0;

}

public boolean equals (Clock otherClock)

{

Consider the eight bit signed binary number 1110 0101. Convert it to signed decimal from assuming the signed binary number is re
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:    -26

Explanation:

We have:  1 1 1 0   0 1 0 1

Since it’s one’s complement representation, then we check the very first digit to state if the number is negative or positive. Since the very first digit to the left is 1, then the number will be negative.

When it is negative, we now flip the bits, so that we get:

0 0 0 1   1 0 1 0

Notice we just turn the 1’s into 0’s and vice versa.

We now convert this binary into decimal:

We assign to each digit the corresponding power of 2.  

See it in a table:

\begin{matrix}0&0&0&1&1&0&1&0\\2^7&2^6&2^5&2^4&2^3&2^2&2^1&2^0 \end{matrix}

Then multiplying each digit by its corresponding power of 2 and then adding the results, we get:

2^4+2^3+2^1

We get:

16+8+2=26

Since we stated that the number is negative, then, the final result is: -26

Describe the advantages of using a template
Mariulka [41]
Ooh, ooh, ooh I know this one!

One advantage is that you don't have to make the entire layout of what you are doing from scratch. It is also time saving by not making you write everything.
