Answer:

a. big endian      

Explanation:

  • Endianness determines the order of how the multiple bytes of information are stored in the memory.
  • Big-endian is a byte ordering scheme in which the most significant byte also called the big end of data is stored at the the lowest address.
  • First byte is the biggest so Big-endian order puts most significant byte first and least significant byte in the last.
  • For example: A hexadecimal number 1D23 required two bytes to be represented so in big endian order this hexadecimal number will be represented as 1D 23.

Write a Python program called wdcount.py which uses a dictionary to count the number of occurrences of each word (ignoring case)
Art [367]

The program is an illustration of loops.

<h3>What are loops?</h3>

Loops are program statements used to perform repetition

<h3>The wordcount.py program</h3>

The program written in Python, where comments are used to explain each line is as follows

# This opens the file in read mode

text = open("myFile.txt", "r")

# This creates an empty dictionary

d = dict()

#This iterates through the text

for line in text:

# This splits the line into words, after removing leading & trailing spaces, and newline characters

words = line.strip().lower().split(" ")

# This iterates through all the words

for word in words:

 # The following if condition counts the occurrence of each word

 if word in d:

  d[word] = d[word] + 1

 else:

  d[word] = 1

#This prints the words and their frequencies, in descending order

for w in sorted(d, key=d.get, reverse=True):

   print(w, d[w])

why might you want to use the send to compressed (zipped) folder command before sending four pictures to a friend via email
IceJOKER [234]

It's easier to send the files that way because you don't have to attach them individually, and then your friend won't have to download them individually - they can just download the zip package and have all four right at their disposal.

what does it mean if you get the brainlyest ?and why does everyone want it so bad? and how do i give it to someone?
Bad White [126]

people mark the people who answered their question probably because they were asked to or their answer was what they were looking for and it helped them. and i don't know why people want it so bad, but personally for me i like getting brainliest because i guess it makes me look cool lol. also it's easy, to give brainliest, when you see a crown that's where you mark brainliest. but sometimes brainly doesn't show the crown i don't understand why, but it happens for some people including me.

As each layer of the OSI model adds its encapsulation header and/or footer, the ______ gets larger until it reaches the physical
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Message

Explanation:

  • The Application layer creates a message. The Application layer passes the message to the Presentation layer.
  • The Presentation layer encapsulates the message by adding information to it. Information is usually added only at the beginning of the message (called a header); however, some layers also add material at the end of the message (called a footer)
  • The process of passing the message down and adding layer-specific information continues until the message reaches the Physical layer.
  • At the Physical layer, the message is converted into electrical impulses that represent bits and is transmitted over the physical connection.  
  • The receiving computer captures the bits from the physical connection and re-creates the message in the Physical layer.  
  • The Physical layer converts the message from bits into a Data Link frame and sends the message up to the Data Link layer.
  • The Data Link layer strips its information and sends the message up to the Network layer.
  • This process of deencapsulation is performed until the message reaches the Application layer.
  • When the message reaches the Application layer, the data in the message is sent to the intended software recipient.
