ta sets provide the responses of 10 students in class A and class B who were asked how many hours they slept at night.
Class A: {7, 6, 7, 8, 8, 7, 4, 5, 6, 7}

Class B: {7, 7, 6, 5, 7, 6, 8, 9, 6, 8}



Which statement is true for the two data sets?


The median sleeping time is greater for class A than for class B.


The median sleeping time is greater for class B than for class A.


The average, or mean, sleeping time is greater for class B than for class A.

Answer:

Answer C

Explanation:

Class A Median: 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8

The Median of Class A is 7.

Class B Median: 5, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9

The Median of Class B is 7.

Class A Mean: 4 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 8 + 8 = 65

To find the mean, you add all of the numbers together, and divide the total by the amount of numbers. (There are ten numbers in the equation, so we divide 65 by 10.)

65/10 = 6.5, This means that the mean of Class A is 6.5

Class B Mean: 5 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 9 = 69

Do the same thing as last time, divide 69 by 10. (6.9)

The mean of class B is 6.9

Answer A and B are both incorrect, because the medians for both classes were the same.  Answer C is correct, because the mean of class B was 6.9 and the mean of Class A was 6.5

Answer D is also incorrect, 6.9 is 0.4 greater than 6.5

How each programming language differs in terms of constructs, techniques, use and requirements?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Programming languages are (designed to be) easily used by machines, but not people.

Natural languages (like English) are easily used by humans, but not machines.

Programming languages are unambiguous, while natural languages are often multiply ambiguous and require interpretation in context to be fully understood (also why it’s so hard to get machines to understand them). Natural languages are also creative and allow poetry, metaphor and other interpretations. Programming does allow some variation in style, but the meaning is not flexible.

Lojban (Wikipedia) is an artificial language designed to try to bridge the gap between these two types of languages. It is specifically unambiguous yet something that a human can pronounce and even speak meaningfully. It can be considered a somewhat successful experiment yet limited in functionality in some ways in both domains (and not a real substitute for a normal programming language, but perhaps useful as an interface).

Natural languages consist of sentences, usually declarative sentences expressing information in a sequence. Programming languages typically are not declarative but procedural, giving instructions to the machine to do something (like commands in natural languages). Rarely, programming languages are declarative, such as Prolog, where statements are given to the computer, then the evaluation consists of finding possible solutions that match those statements (generate a list of words based on possible combinations of letters as defined just by letter-combining rules, for example).

The vocabulary of natural languages is filled with conceptual terms. The vocabulary of programming languages is generally only ‘grammatical’/functional ‘words’ like basic comments, plus various custom-named things like variables and functions. There are no words like you’d look up in a dictionary to express something like ‘love’ or ‘happy’ or ‘sing’.

The grammatical structures vary in more ways than are easy to list here. But some of the most obvious factors are that words don’t have separable parts in programming languages (like English cat-s to form a plural) [=no morphology], and that via brackets, line breaks or other markers, embedding tends to be overtly and clearly marked on both sides for the parser in programming languages, whereas spoken languages usually only have one word (like “that”) linking embedded sentences, and sometimes no word at all. This is another reason that parsing human languages is so hard on a computer.

You could also look at Hockett’s design features and see which apply to programming languages: What is the difference between human and animal language?

In a very general sense, programming languages aren’t used for bidirectional communication and may not properly be considered “languages” in the same sense as natural languages. Just looking at Hockett’s features, they’re completely distinct in being written only, do not involve interchangeability between the speaker and hearer, do not have ‘duality of patterning’ meaning multiple layers of structure as sounds vs. phrases (phonology vs. syntax), and are not transmitted culturally (well, maybe). It’s just very hard to even try to make the comparison.

Most fundamentally, it is worth asking if programming languages even have meaning, or if they are just instructions. This is similar to the Chinese room thought experiment— given a book of instructions for how to translate Chinese, but without actually understanding it, would a human (or computer) with that book be considered to “know” Chinese? Probably not. A computer doesn’t “know” anything, it just does what the instructions tell it to. Therefore, programming languages have no semantics/meaning. They just are instructions, which translate into electronic signals, nothing more.

Compare GBN, SR, and TCP (no delayed ACK). Assume that the timeout values for all three protocols are sufficiently long such tha
kvv77 [185]

Answer and Explanation:

a)

For Go-Back-N:

  Host A sent total number of segments is 9.The initial segment numbers are 1,2,3,4,5 and re-sent the segemnts 2,3,4 and 5 because 2nd segment was lost.

Host B sent the number of ACKs are 8.Host B sent ACKs 1 by four times because 2nd segment was lost and sent 4ACKs with sequence numbers 2,3,4 and 5

selective repeat:

 Host A sent total number of segments is 6.The initial segment numbers are 1,2,3,4,5 and re-sent the segemnts 2 because 2nd segment was lost.

Host B sent the number of ACKs are 5.Host B sent four ACKs with sequence numbers 1,3,4,5 and re-sent ACK2 with sequence number 2 because 2nd segment was lost.

TCP :

Host A sent total number of segments is 6.The initial segment numbers are 1,2,3,4,5 and re-sent the segemnts 2 because 2nd segment was lost.

Host B sent the number of ACKs are 5.Host B sent four ACKs with sequence number 2 and There is one ACK with sequence number 6.TCP always send an ACK with expected sequence number

b) If the timeout values for all three protocol are much longer than 5*RTT,then TCP protocol successfully delivers all five data segments in shortest time interval.
