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

Develop an algorithm and write a C++ program that finds the number of occurrences of a specified character in the string; make s
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

The algorithm is as follows:

1. Input sentence

2. Input character

3. Length = len(sentence)

4. count = 0

5. For i = 0 to Length-1

 5.1 If sentence[i] == character

    5.1.1 count++

6. Print count

7. Stop

The program in C++ is as follows:

#include <iostream>

#include <string.h>

using namespace std;

int main(){

char str[100];   char chr;

cin.getline(str, 100);

cin>>chr;

int count = 0;

for (int i=0;i<strlen(str);i++){

 if (str[i] == chr){

  count++;} }

cout << count;

return 0;}

Explanation:

I will provide explanation for the c++ program. The explanation can also be extended to the algorithm

This declares the string and the character

char str[100];   char chr;

This gets input for the string variable

cin.getline(str, 100);

This gets input for the character variable

cin>>chr;

This initializes count to 0

int count = 0;

This iterates through the characters of the string

for (int i=0;i<strlen(str);i++){

If the current character equals the search character, count is incremented by 1

 if (str[i] == chr){  count++;} }

This prints the count

cout << count;

Answer:

a. In cell A6, enter a formula without using a function that references cell A6 in the Washington worksheet.

b. Copy the formula from cell A6 to the range A7:A9 without copying the formatting.

Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet application used for data analysis and statistical calculation. The worksheet is made of columns and rows like a table and labeled alphabetically and numerically respectively. Several worksheets can be referenced in an excel workbook

To consolidate data in excel, reference a cell from another worksheet in the formula of the current worksheet and copy the formula from the cell to a given range of cells, without copying the formatting of the cell.

An online game is played with two dice. In this context, explain what is meant by decomposition
Hunter-Best [27]
You want to throw 2 dice and get (or show?) their value.
    Their value is random, so you need to generate two numbers between 1 & 6.
    You may need to display the numbers
    The main part of the program needs to know the numbers to limit what the user may do next.


That's most of the first level of decomposition. You need to keep decomposing (breaking into smaller simpler pieces) (think of an outline) and deciding what objects, functions, data structures and logic you're going to use to code this.
