Answer:

The correct option is C, the digital divide.

Explanation:

<em>The device debacle </em>

This option is wrong. Device debacle refers to a sudden and violent collapse of a device, equipment or technology.

<em>The technology rut </em>

This option is wrong. Technology rut refers to a state where one’s technology is seemingly trapped or stuck in a mundane, non-changing pattern.    

<em>The digital divide </em>

This is the correct answer. Digital divide refers to any gap or uneven distribution in the access to or use of modern information and communication technologies or its impact between any number of distinct groups, demographics or regions. The criteria for defining such groups may be social, geopolitical or geographically based. This technology includes the telephone, television, personal computers and the Internet. A major reason for this gap is poverty and the economic barriers that limit resources and prevent people from obtaining or using newer technologies.

<em>The great internet shortage </em>

This option is equally wrong. The great Internet shortage refers to an Internet outage or Internet blackout like you have electric power shortage.

Answer:

The digital divide

Explanation:

A digital divide is any uneven distribution in the access to, use of, or impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) between any number of distinct groups. These groups may be defined based on social, geographical, or geopolitical criteria, or otherwise.

The National Digital Inclusion Alliance, a US-based nonprofit organization, has found the term "digital divide" to be problematic so instead they use the word "Digital Inclusion".

Digital Inclusion refers to the activities necessary to ensure that all individuals and communities, including the most disadvantaged, have access to and use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). This includes 5 elements:

1) affordable, robust broadband internet service;

2) internet-enabled devices that meet the needs of the user;

3) access to digital literacy training;

4) quality technical support;

5) applications and online content designed to enable and encourage self-sufficiency, participation and collaboration

Write a function that takes as input a single integer parameter n and computes the nth Fibonacci Sequence number. The Fibonacci
RSB [31]

Answer:

Following are the code to this question:

def Fibonacci(n):#defining a method Fibonacci that accept a parameter

   a = 1#defining a variable a that holds a value 1

   b = 1#defining a variable b that holds a value 1

   if n <= 0:# Use if to check n value

       print("invalid number")#print message

   elif n == 2:#defining elif that check n equal to 2

        return 1#return 1

   else:#defining else block

       print(a)#print value of a

       print(b)#print value of b

       for i in range(2,n):#defining for loop to calculate series

           s = a + b# add value in s variable

           a = b # interchange value

           b = s# hold s value

           print(s)#print s value

Fibonacci(10)#calling method

Output:

1

1

2

3

5

8

13

21

34

55

Explanation:

In the above-given program code, a method "Fibonacci" is defined, which holds a value "n" in its parameter, and inside the method two-variable "a and b" is defined, that holds a value "1".

  • In the next step, if a block is defined that checks n value is less than equal to 0, it will print "invalid number" as a message.
  • In the elif, it checks n value is equal to 2 it will return a value that is 1.
  • In the else block, it will calculate the Fibonacci series and print its value.

Why is the keyboard calledQWERTY
taurus [48]
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.
