Personal computers made accessing information a lot faster and easier but a lot of times the things we see when we search information is tailored to our personal beliefs and opinions. For example, if you're a person that commonly searches for information or products about dogs, you're way less likely to get an add promoting cat food. While this may seem like a very positive thing, it also may have a downside. This rule also applies to things like political views, if you're a trump supporter you'll most likely end up seeing things that are pro-Trump and a lot fewer things that are pro-Hilary. 

This can skew people's outlooks on certain subjects, if you're only ever seeing web pages and articles saying that Trump is great, you won't ever see the opposing side which is essential in making a well-informed decision about a candidate for the presidency or any other subject for that matter.

In summary, You have to see both the good and bad side of something to truly make a choice and the way the internet works can sometimes make that difficult.


I hope this helps and makes sense! :)

Calculate the performance of a processor taking into account stalls due to data cache and instruction cache misses. The data cac
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

- Calculate the additional CPI due to the icache stalls.

- Calculate the additional CPI due to the dcache stalls.  

- Calculate the overall CPI for the machine.

The additional CPI due to icache stalls = Hit Rate * Hit Latency + Miss Rate*  

Miss Penalty = 0.9*2 + 0.1*50 = 1.8 + 5 = 6.8  

The additional CPI due to dcache stalls = 0.92*2 + 0.08*124 = 11.76  

The overall CPI = 0.3*11.76 + 0.7*1.0 + 1.0*6.8 = 11.03 7.

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

# the number of pizza is initialised

# to 5

number_of_pizza = 5

# number of slice in each pizza

# is initialised to 8

slice_in_each_pizza = 8

# total number of pizza is calculated

total_number_of_slices = number_of_pizza * slice_in_each_pizza

# number of guest who respond yes

# is initialised to 10

number_of_guest_respond_yes = 10

# additional 3 guest is added to existing guest

number_of_guest_respond_yes += 3

# number of left over slice is gotten by using modulo arithmetic

number_of_left_over_slice = total_number_of_slices % number_of_guest_respond_yes

# the number of left over slice

# is printed which is 1

print(number_of_left_over_slice)

Explanation:

Missing Question Part: Use a variable to store the number of pizzas ordered as 5.

Assuming there are 8 slices in each pizza, use a variable to store the total number of slices calculated using the number of pizzas ordered.

Use another variable to store the number of guests who had responded YES as 10.

Three more people responded YES. Update the corresponding variable using an appropriate expression.

Based on the guest count, set up an expression to determine the number of left-over slices if the slices would be evenly distributed among the guests. Store the result of the expression in a variable.

The program is written in Python and it is well commented.
