P.W Singer stated:

"And think about it this way: We don't use Wang computers anymore, or Commodore 64s, kids don't play Atari videogames. Those companies may have been at the forefront of the digital revolution, they're not anymore. Same thing in war. You know the British invent the tank. The Germans figure out how to use the tank better,"

DSL signals travel over telephone lines using the 300 to 3300 Hz frequency range.

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

DSL(Digital Subscriber Line) :-It is a technology in which user gets high bandwidth connection over ordinary telephone lines.

This technique uses data modulation to achieve higher throughput over the telephone lines.Telephone lines carry voice signals over a small range of frequencies between 300 and 3300 Hz. So the frequencies that are higher are unused and available for data transfer.

DSL connection uses a modulation technique based on amplitude or phase modulation. With the help of modulation techniques DSL uses these unused higher frequencies.It uses frequency range higher than 300 to 3300 hz.

in the client server model, what is the primary protocol used for communication between a browser and Web server

worty [1.4K]

Assuming the client is using a web browser, your answer would most likely be the Hyper-Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

HTTP is a very, very common way of transfering insensitive data from client to server. HTTPS is more secure, adding a secure socket layer to protect communications from being intercepted.

--

As an alternative answer, the FTP (File Transfer Protocol) may be an acceptable answer, but this is usually not the primary method of communication for clients, as it is mainly used to access and modify files on the server, requiring a username-password combo to do so (usually).

. Write a function definition as follows: it returns the C++ form of a Boolean value, its function identifier is anyTwoTheSame,

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

The c++ code to implement the Boolean function is given. The function definition is shown.

bool anyTwoTheSame(float a, float b, float c)

{

bool same = false;

if(a == b)

same = true;

else if(a == c)

same = true;

else if(b == c)

same = true;

return same;

}

Explanation:

This function accepts three floating point numbers and returns true if any two numbers are equal else returns false.

The program below shows the implementation of this method.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

bool anyTwoTheSame(float a, float b, float c);

bool anyTwoTheSame(float a, float b, float c)

{

bool same = false;

if(a == b)

same = true;

else if(a == c)

same = true;

else if(b == c)

same = true;

return same;

}

int main() {

float one=12.34, two=56.78, three=90.1;

cout<<"Two numbers are same : " <<anyTwoTheSame(one, two, three);

}

OUTPUT

Two numbers are same : 0

The method is first declared.

bool anyTwoTheSame(float a, float b, float c);

Next step is method definition which shows what the function is supposed to do. The test to check equality of two numbers is implemented as shown.

bool same = false;

if(a == b)

same = true;

else if(a == c)

same = true;

else if(b == c)

same = true;

This is the simplest test which can be programmed.

If the numbers are not same, the Boolean variable, same, remains initialized to false.

This function is then called in main method.

No user input is taken as this is not specified in the question.

The three floating variables are declared and initialized inside the main. The values are put inside the program and not taken from the user.

The output shows either 0 or 1. 0 represents false and 1 represents true.

This program can be tested for different values of floating variables.

Write a method equals that could be added to the IntTree class. (On your handout this method is called "equals", but Practice-It

masya89 [10]

Answer:

public boolean equals(Object other)

{

// check correct instance

if (other instanceof IntTree)

{

try

{

IntTree otherTree = (IntTree) other;

return equals(overallRoot, otherTree.overallRoot);

}

// caught exceptions

catch (Exception e)

{

return false;

}

return false;

}

public boolean equals(IntTreeNode tree1, IntTreeNode tree2)

{

// if reach ends

if (tree1 == null && tree2 == null)

{

// they are equal

return true;

}

else if (tree1 == null || tree2 == null)

{

// not equal

return false;

}

// check left part

boolean leftPart = equals(tree1.left, tree2.left);

// check current element is same

boolean currentPart = tree1.element.equals(tree2.element);

// check right part

boolean rightPart = equals(tree1.right, tree2.right);

// all are equal

return (leftPart && currentPart && rightPart);

}
