It allows us to precisely tell where places, people (under certain circumstances), etc. are. It is the most widely relied upon mapping system in the world. Using a GPS, you can find almost any plotted (known) location on the Earth. Most mapping operations rely on a GPS and would, otherwise, fail without it.

       if(yes) {

           this.isOn=true;

           System.out.println("Fan is blowing");

           return true;

       }

       else

           this.isOn=false;

           System.out.println("Fan is off");

           return false;

   }

}

Explanation:

Demonstrating the working of the class in a main method. Below is a complete code

public class fanTest {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

fan fan1 = new fan("Binatone", false);

       fan1.turnOn(false);

   }

You work for a company that is growing. Originally, all the users in all departments had access to all the data in the database.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

Authorization levels (privileges) need to be set for the users in the company.

Explanation:

Users need to be classified according to their departments and their position. Each group should see only <em>related</em> data, so their authorizations need to be done accordingly.

Also managers and staff should have different levels of reach to the data. Thus their privileges should set accordingly.

Selma writes the following four answers in her Computer Science examination.
REY [17]

Answer:

Interrupts.

Explanation:

A software can be defined as a set of executable instructions (codes) or collection of data that is used typically to instruct a computer on how to perform a specific task and solve a particular problem.

The four (4) input-output (I/O) software layers includes the following;

I. User level software: it provides user programs with a simple user interface to perform input and output functions.

II. Device drivers: it controls the input-output (I/O) devices that are connected to a computer system through a wired or wireless connection.

III. Device-independent OS software: it allows for uniform interfacing and buffering for device drivers.

IV. Interrupt drivers (handlers): it is responsible for handling interruptions that occur while using a software on a computer system.

An interrupt is a signal from a program or device connected to a computer and it's typically designed to instruct the operating system (OS) that an event has occurred and requires an attention such as stopping its current activities or processes.

In conclusion, the computer term that Selma is describing is interrupts.
