I believe it is because the arrangement of the first six letters in the top alphabet row of a standard keyboard QWERTY goes way back. The layout was created in 1873 when Christopher Latham Sholes made improvements to his earlier typewriter models in order to design a quicker and more efficient typewriter for E. Remington and Sons.

The standard QWERTY layout keyboard is called 'QWERTY' because on the top line of the keyboard the first 6 letters from chronological left to right order are; Q, W, E, R, T, and Y.

Or...if you're wondering why it's QWERTY and not ABCDEF, it's because when typing with the alphabetical format, many of the keys would clash with each other due to the arrangement of keys on the original typewriter. The QWERTY layout became so popular, it was the standardized layout for typewriters, and even keyboards today.

Which of the following offers a combination of the features of ram and rom?
IRISSAK [1]

Cache Flash memory offers a combination of the features of ram and rom.

Memory made of cache flash combines ROM and RAM functionalities. It can be upgraded to store fresh information, just like RAM. It retains the data even if the power to the computer system is turned off, unlike ROM.

Non-volatile computer memory that may be electrically erased and reprogrammed is called flash memory.

• This technology is mainly utilized in memory cards and USB flash drives (also known as thumb drives, handy drives, memory sticks, flash drives, jump drives, and "Cap N' Go") for broad data storage and transmission between computers and other digital devices.

• It is a particular kind of EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) that can be programmed and wiped in big chunks.

• PDAs (personal digital assistants), laptop computers, digital music players, digital cameras, and mobile phones are a few examples of applications.

• It has also become more common in the market for video game consoles, where it is frequently utilized for game save data instead of EEPROMs or battery-powered SRAM.
