An operating system is a system software, that after being initially loaded into the computer by a good program, manages all the other programs in a computer.

The application programs make use of the operating system by making request for services through a different Application Program Interface (API). In addition, users can interact directly with operating systems through a user interface such as command language or Graphical User Interface(GUI).

Functions Performed by the OS :

♤ The operating system acts as an interface between the computer hardware and the user.

♤ It manages computer's memory.

♤ It handles interrupts.

♤ It schedules the jobs.

♤ It manages Input/Output devices.

All major computer platforms (hardware and software) required and sometimes include an Operating System. Linux, Windows, Mac, VMS, OS/400 X, and z/OS are examples of operating systems.

A file extension of .xlsx means that the file contains what?

laiz [17]

A .xlsx file tells you that the file is an Excel workbook that utilizes XML files to create the various spreadsheets as well as macros and other hidden codes used to perform certain functions (which is why there's an X at the end; older .xls files had no indication of this external code being present, which is why they're almost never recommended for modern use).

How can chess computers be programmed so that it can be so accurately adjusted to a skill level ranging from a beginner to a gra

Elis [28]

They are artificially intelligent. They watch thousands of hours of videos of the game they are going to play. After they learn, they challenge themselves against themselves and save all the moves it used that time, they play another game against the saved game and if they best it then they save the new and repeat. I am not sure about this because I am just a 15 yr old but the early ones brute forced the game and one. Brute Forcing is a way to try out every possible move and pick the most like to succeed or the most efficient one, brute force is also used in hacking or cracking passwords that have something in common. Like let's say ur password is Jakeis35. I would make a list that would be:
Jake
jake
Is
is
35
34

and with a software it will put together every possible pair and will stop when it matches the password on the server or if the password let it login.
