<em>One of the features of Operating System is </em><em>it manages and communicates with your system hardware </em><em>by means of Drivers. </em>

<em>Drivers </em><em>are special software within the OS that interacts to the hardware. Drivers uses kernel, a part of the operating system that functions intended to it. For example, when you press Ctrl and P keys on the keyboard, the kernel would recognize this command and would trigger the corresponding hardware in relation to this command. In this case, the corresponding hardware is printer. The kernel would tell the printer to print the document.</em>

You are preparing to program a replacement system board, but the "system is booting in mpm mode" message is not displayed. what
Romashka [77]

The bios is not setup properly for the system, as such the OS is not loaded properly. It is basically on factory mode state of unit testing, if the unit is in warranty have the vendor fix this as they have to deactivate the MPM or manufacturing programming mode or from your end make sure that the disk which contains the OS is properly loading.

In C++ please (read the image below for instructions)
FromTheMoon [43]

Using the knowledge in computational language in C code  it is possible to write a code that  print the month name along with their rainfall inches. Then we have to calculate the total rainfall.

<h3>Writting the code:</h3>

<em>#include <bits/stdc++.h></em>

<em>using </em><em>namespace </em><em>std;</em>

<em />

<em>// function to print the rainfall of each month</em>

<em>void rainfallStatistics(string month[], double rainfall[]){</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    double sum = 0; // variable to store the total sum of rainfall</em>

<em>    string maxMonth = month[0]; // variable to return month with maximum rainfall</em>

<em>    double </em><em>maxRainfall </em><em>= INT_MIN; // variable to store the maximum rainfall</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    // running the loop till the last month</em>

<em>    for(int i=0; i<12; i++){</em>

<em>        </em>

<em>        // printing the month and rainfall</em>

<em>        cout<< month[i] << "           " << fixed << setprecision(2) << rainfall[i] << " inches" << endl;</em>

<em>        </em>

<em>        // storing the sum</em>

<em>        sum = sum + rainfall[i];</em>

<em>        </em>

<em>        // checking the month with highest rainfall</em>

<em>        if(rainfall[i] > </em><em>maxRainfall</em><em>){</em>

<em>            </em>

<em>            maxRainfall = rainfall[i];</em>

<em>            maxMonth = month[i];</em>

<em>        }</em>

<em>    }</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    // calculating the average of the rainfall</em>

<em>    double average = sum / double(12);</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    cout << endl;</em>

<em>    cout << "Total for the year " << sum << " inches" << endl;</em>

<em>    cout << "Average rainfall per month " << average << " inches" << endl;</em>

<em>    cout << "Month with the greatest rainfall was " << maxMonth << " with rainfall of " << </em><em>maxRainfall </em><em><< " inches" << endl;</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>}</em>

<em>// driver program</em>

<em>int main()</em>

<em>{</em>

<em>    // array to store the nonth name</em>

<em>    string month[12] = {"Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"};</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    // array to store the rainfall</em>

<em>    double rainfall1[12] = { 4.50, 4.25, 3.26, 1.35, 0.80, 0.20, 0.10, 0.00, 0.40, 1.20, 2.96, 4.71 };</em>

<em>    double rainfall2[12] = { 3.50, 1.25, 7.26, 8.35, 2.80, 0.00, 1.10, 4.00, 9.40, 2.20, 3.96, 4.71 };</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    cout << "Hayward Statistics" << endl;</em>

<em>    cout << endl;</em>

<em>    cout<< "Month" << "         " << "Rainfall" << endl;</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    // calling the function for Hayward</em>

<em>    </em><em>rainfallStatistics</em><em>(month, rainfall1);</em>

<em>    cout << endl;</em>

<em>    cout << endl;</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    cout << "Houston Statistics" << endl;</em>

<em>    cout << endl;</em>

<em>    cout<< "Month" << "         " << "Rainfall" << endl;</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    // calling the function for Houston</em>

<em>    rainfallStatistics(month, rainfall2);</em>

<em>    </em>

<em>    return 0;</em>

<em>}</em>

What would I need to make the perfect music video
Lera25 [3.4K]
To make the perfect music video, you would need a bunch of b-roll and clips that relate to the song. If it’s a slow, relaxing song, you want things that are slow and represent peace. If it’s about something specific, you should have a story behind it to explain. Hope this helps! :)
