Answer: D. Turing conceived the structure of a programmable computer.

Explanation: The passage describes how Alan M. Turing described the theoretical aspect of a programmable computer. There is no reference to a physical machine or Turing working on an actual (physical) computer.

The Turing machine, although it does sound like a physical computer was an abstract idea, conceived in mathematical form of what a programmable machine would be like. Alan Turing is considered one of the founding fathers of theoretical computer science.

Show how to define a view tot_credits (year, num_credits), giving the total number of credits taken by students in each year
andreev551 [17]

Hi! I'm a Digital Marketer Intern at hotels.ng and I have a moderate knowledge on programming.

First, your  question is not very explanatory. The term "view" is often used in back-end web development. A view is simply a Python function that takes a Web request and returns a Web response.

But I'm not sure this is what you want, so I'll just go ahead and write a python function involving class to return the total number of credits taken by a student.

I'll answer this question using Python.

class student(object):  

    credits = None

    year = None

    def num_credits(self):


       #get credit value

       self.credits = input("Enter the total number of credits: "  )


       pass

    def getYear(self):

        self.year = input("Enter current year: ")

        pass

    def tot_credits(self):

          TotalCredits = tempTotalCredits + self.num_credits

           print "Your  total credits are :"+" "+str(TotalCredits)

Which of the following statements about constructors are true? Check all that apply.
Neko [114]

Answer:

a. Partly True

b. True

Explanation:

(a) "new" keyword or syntax is used for the constructors while working in Perl and Moose object system for Perl.

For Visual Basics .Net, keyword "New" is used

For Python, "___new___" is used which allocates memory for instance and receives class as an argument.

For Objective-C, "alloc" and "init" are used for constructor method. "alloc" allocates memory for the instance and "init" handles the bulk of initializing the instance. Whereas, the "new" keyword calls both "alloc" and "init" for class instance.

(b) A constructor does not return any value because it is called by the memory allocation and object initialization code  in the runtime and not directly by your code.
