Information refers to the meaningful output obtained after processing the data. Data processing therefore refers to the process of transforming raw data into meaningful output i.e. information.Mechanically using simple devices like typewriters or electronically using modern data processing tools such as computers.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

class Taxicab():

def __init__(self, x, y):

self.x_coordinate = x

self.y_coordinate = y

self.odometer = 0

def get_x_coord(self):

return self.x_coordinate

def get_y_coord(self):

return self.y_coordinate

def get_odometer(self):

return self.odometer

def move_x(self, distance):

self.x_coordinate += distance

# add the absolute distance to odometer

self.odometer += abs(distance)

def move_y(self, distance):

self.y_coordinate += distance

# add the absolute distance to odometer

self.odometer += abs(distance)

cab = Taxicab(5,-8)

cab.move_x(3)

cab.move_y(-4)

cab.move_x(-1)

print(cab.odometer) # will print 8 3+4+1 = 8

Answer:

(a)Applications Time Stamp Events

(b)S=0.5(W- $T_{skew}$ )+ $T_{skew}$ , where $T_{skew}$ ≤W≤ $T_{skew}$ +8.

Explanation:

Some applications assume that clocks always advance, so they could timestamp events under this assumption.

In our case we have the wrong timed clock, say W and the hardware clock H which is supposed to advance at a perfect rate.

We proceed to construct a software clock such that after 8 seconds we can replace the wrong timed clock with the software clock in good conditions.

Let us denote the software clock with S.

Then, S=c(W- $T_{skew}$ )+ $T_{skew}$ where:

$T_{skew}$ =The current Time(10:27:54) and;

c is to be found.

We already know that S= $T_{skew}$ +4 when W= $T_{skew}$ +8,

So:

S=c(W- $T_{skew}$ )+ $T_{skew}$

$T_{skew}$ +4=c( $T_{skew}$ +8- $T_{skew}$ )+ $T_{skew}$

4=8c

c=0.5

We obtain the formula

S=0.5(W- $T_{skew}$ )+ $T_{skew}$ , where $T_{skew}$ ≤W≤ $T_{skew}$ +8.
