Write a small program that takes in two numbers from the user. Using an if statement and an else statement, compare them and tel

l the user which is the bigger number. Also, consider what to output if the numbers are the same.
Test your program in REPL.it, and then copy it to your Coding Log.

(If you’re up for an extra challenge, try extending the program to accept three numbers and find the biggest number!)

And only give me a good answer not some random letters plz. ty

Answer:

4. Conditionals

4.1. The modulus operator

The modulus operator works on integers (and integer expressions) and yields the remainder when the first operand is divided by the second. In Python, the modulus operator is a percent sign (%). The syntax is the same as for other operators:

>>> quotient = 7 / 3

>>> print quotient

2

>>> remainder = 7 % 3

>>> print remainder

1

So 7 divided by 3 is 2 with 1 left over.

The modulus operator turns out to be surprisingly useful. For example, you can check whether one number is divisible by another—if x % y is zero, then x is divisible by y.

Also, you can extract the right-most digit or digits from a number. For example, x % 10 yields the right-most digit of x (in base 10). Similarly x % 100 yields the last two digits.

4.2. Boolean values and expressions

The Python type for storing true and false values is called bool, named after the British mathematician, George Boole. George Boole created Boolean algebra, which is the basis of all modern computer arithmetic.

There are only two boolean values: True and False. Capitalization is important, since true and false are not boolean values.

>>> type(True)

<type 'bool'>

>>> type(true)

Traceback (most recent call last):

 File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

NameError: name 'true' is not defined

A boolean expression is an expression that evaluates to a boolean value. The operator == compares two values and produces a boolean value:

>>> 5 == 5

True

>>> 5 == 6

False

In the first statement, the two operands are equal, so the expression evaluates to True; in the second statement, 5 is not equal to 6, so we get False.

The == operator is one of the comparison operators; the others are:

x != y               # x is not equal to y

x > y                # x is greater than y

x < y                # x is less than y

x >= y               # x is greater than or equal to y

x <= y               # x is less than or equal to y

Although these operations are probably familiar to you, the Python symbols are different from the mathematical symbols. A common error is to use a single equal sign (=) instead of a double equal sign (==). Remember that = is an assignment operator and == is a comparison operator. Also, there is no such thing as =< or =>.

4.3. Logical operators

There are three logical operators: and, or, and not. The semantics (meaning) of these operators is similar to their meaning in English. For example, x > 0 and x < 10 is true only if x is greater than 0 and less than 10.

n % 2 == 0 or n % 3 == 0 is true if either of the conditions is true, that is, if the number is divisible by 2 or 3.

Finally, the not operator negates a boolean expression, so not(x > y) is true if (x > y) is false, that is, if x is less than or equal to y.

4.4. Conditional execution

In order to write useful programs, we almost always need the ability to check conditions and change the behavior of the program accordingly. Conditional statements give us this ability. The simplest form is the ** if statement**:

if x > 0:

   print "x is positive"

The boolean expression after the if statement is called the condition. If it is true, then the indented statement gets executed. If not, nothing happens.

The syntax for an if statement looks like this:

if BOOLEAN EXPRESSION:

   STATEMENTS

As with the function definition from last chapter and other compound statements, the if statement consists of a header and a body. The header begins with the keyword if followed by a boolean expression and ends with a colon (:).

The indented statements that follow are called a block. The first unindented statement marks the end of the block. A statement block inside a compound statement is called the body of the statement.

Each of the statements inside the body are executed in order if the boolean expression evaluates to True. The entire block is skipped if the boolean expression evaluates to False.

There is no limit on the number of statements that can appear in the body of an if statement, but there has to be at least one. Occasionally, it is useful to have a body with no statements (usually as a place keeper for code you haven’t written yet). In that case, you can use the pass statement, which does nothing.

if True:          # This is always true

   pass          # so this is always executed, but it does nothing

Answer:

Streaming movies may stop to buffer

Explanation:

microphones have a set record limit, and games downloaded wont generate errors unless something in the code is wrong, printers don't really need to connect to internet to work except for some, and streaming movies buffer because as you are watching them it downloads the next few minutes.

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Extended star topology

Explanation:

The Extended star topology also known as the tree topology comprises of characteristics of the linear bus topology and star topology.

It consist of multiple star connected topologies connected to a linear backbone bus topology. It has a wider communication area than the star topology and uses more cabling length. All the star networks are connected to a central connection which allows to have a full functioning network when others fails.
