Please help

zvonat [6]

Answer:

First check the if the adapters on the router or site are connected (Ipconfig)

Next run a flush Dns to clear the sites dns logs (ipconfig/flushdns)

If non of that works you would run a restart on the server that is transfering data through the site.

If that doesn't work you will have to call a tech support from another company or your boss to tell him that there is nothing you can do and to ask for help!

Explanation:

Hopefully this helps! BTW I'm 13 so I wouldn't rely on my information that is personal what I would do though.

How is data written to a blockchain?

NikAS [45]

<h2>APPEND ONLY</h2>

Unlike traditional databases, blockchain is designed to be an "append-only" data structure. That means you can only append new data in the form of additional blocks, which will then be chained together with previous blocks of data. All data is permanently stored across more nodes and cannot be altered.

#dictionary of states along with their capitals

quit=False #exit option

print ("Welcome to the States capitals quiz game!")

wrong_ans = False # boolean variable for incorrect answer

while not quit and len(capitals)>0:

#loop continues until all state capitals are finished and user presses q

choice = random.choice(list(capitals.keys()))

#choice variable stores randomly generated list of pick

right_ans = capitals.get(choice) #stores correct answer

print ("\nWhat is the capital city of",choice,"?")

user_ans = input("Your guess: ") #answer entered by user

if user_ans.lower()=='q': #if user presses q to quit

quit=True #quit value become true

print("The quiz is over! Bubye!")

#displays the above message and quits the program

elif user_ans.lower()==right_ans.lower(): #if user enters correct guess

print ("Right Answer! \n") # displays this message

else: #if user enters wrong guess

print ("Wrong Answer!\n") #displays wrong answer message

print ("The right answer is ",right_ans) #prints right capital

wrong_ans = True

quiz() #calls quiz function to begin with the quiz

Explanation:

The program has a dictionary that contains the US states as keys and their capitals as values. The program asks the user to enter the capital of a random state. This state is selected randomly from the list of states using random function and keys() method is used to display list of all keys in the capital states dictionary. The while loop starts which keeps asking the user to guess the capital of states. This loop ends when the user types q to quit the program or all the capitals of the states are covered. Now the user guess is compared to the right answer, if the user has correctly guessed the capital then the Right answer message is displayed otherwise Wrong answer is displayed. After Wrong answer message the correct answer is displayed and the quiz starts again until the user enters q to exit. When the user types q the message: The quiz is over! Bubye! is displayed and the programs exits.
