. Some countries lack physical resources, like computers or network connections, making it difficult to keep up with the technol

ogy of the world. These same countries or locations lack the digital skills and literacy, being comfortable with technology and understanding how to effectively use it, needed in order to be successful in this connected world. The situation described above is commonly referred to as what?

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

Assume the following JavaScript program was interpreted using staticscoping rules. What value of x is displayed in function sub1
Annette [7]

Answer:

Static scoping: x is 5

Dynamic scoping : x is 10.

Explanation:

Static scoping :

In static scoping the variable of a function take the value within the function.

If there is no values exist within the function then take the global value of the variable.

var x // No value is assigned to x so it check global value of x

function sub1() {

   document.write(“x = “ + x + “”); // So it print x = 5

}

function sub2() {

   var x;

   x = 10;

   sub1();

}

x = 5; // It is the global value of x

sub2();

Static scoping: x is 5

Dynamic scoping :

In Dynamic scoping the variable of a function take the value all the calling function ends.

If the global value is the last assigned value of a variable then it take that value.

If there exist some other function after global variable value if that function contain the variable with some assigned value variable take that value.

var x

function sub1() {

   document.write(“x = “ + x + “”);

}

x = 5; // At this point x value is 5 and check there exist a function

sub2(); // So now call this function

function sub2() {

   var x;

   x = 10; // The value of x = 5 is replaced with x = 10

   sub1();

}

Dynamic scoping : x is 10.

For this programming assignment you will implement the Naive Bayes algorithm from scratch and the functions to evaluate it with
DanielleElmas [232]

Bayes’ Theorem provides a way that we can calculate the probability of a piece of data belonging to a given class, given our prior knowledge.

P(class|data) = (P(data|class) * P(class)) / P(data)

Where P(class|data) is the probability of class given the provided data.

Explanation:

  • Naive Bayes is a classification algorithm for binary  and multiclass classification problems.
  • It is called Naive Bayes or idiot Bayes because the calculations of the probabilities for each class are simplified to make their calculations tractable.

This Naive Bayes tutorial is broken down into 5 parts:

Step 1: Separate By Class :  Calculate the probability of data by the class they belong to, the so-called base rate. Separate our training data by class.

Step 2: Summarize Dataset : The two statistics we require from a given dataset are the mean and the standard deviation

The mean is the average value and can be calculated using :

mean = sum(x)/n * count(x)

Step 3: Summarize Data By Class : Statistics from our training dataset organized by class.

Step 4: Gaussian Probability Density Function : Probability or likelihood of observing a given real-value. One way we can do this is to assume that the values are drawn from a distribution, such as a bell curve or Gaussian distribution.

Step 5: Class Probabilities :  The statistics calculated from our training data to calculate probabilities for new data.  Probabilities are calculated separately for each class. This means that we first calculate the probability that a new piece of data belongs to the first class, then calculate the second class, on for all the classes.
