Identify the types of specifier and apply them

 .

In C programming, there are several specifiers that are used to define the type and size of variables. These specifiers are used to declare variables and define their type and range of values. The following are the types of specifiers in C programming:

  1. Basic data types: The basic data types in C include int, char, float, and double. These specifiers define the type and size of variables that store integers, characters, floating-point values and double-precision floating-point values, respectively.
  2. Enumeration types: Enumeration types allow the programmer to define a list of named constants. These constants can be used to represent a set of related values.
  3. Void type: The void type is used to indicate that a function returns no value or that a pointer has no type.
  4. User-defined types: User-defined types are created by the programmer to define custom data structures that are composed of variables of other data types.
  5. Storage class specifiers: Storage class specifiers define that scope and lifetime of variables. The four storage class specifiers are auto, static, extern, and register.
To apply these specifiers, the programmer must use them when declaring variables. For example, to declare an integer variable named "age", the programmer would use the int specifier as follows:
        Int age;

To define a user-defined type that represents a complex number, the programmer could use the following code:
        typedef struct { float real; float imaginary; } complex;

The above code defines a new data type called "complex", Which contains two variables of type float.

In summary, specifiers are an important part of C programming and are used to define the type and size of variables, as well as their scope and lifetime. By using specifiers correctly, programmers can write more efficient and effective code.

Introduction of Computer

.  A computer is an electronic device. It take input and store the data in memory and performing the function to produce accurate result in output device. It is used to type document, send email, play game, browse the web and entertainment.   Characteristics of computer  1 . High speed  Computer is very fast device. It is capable of performing calculation of very large amount of data. The computer has unit of speed in microsecond, nanosecond and even in picosecond. The computer is capable of performing millions of tasks per second. 2. Accuracy  The computer produces highly accurate and reliable result.  It does not make any kind of mistake in calculating. The calculation are 100% error free. The computers perform accurate 'n' number of times. 3. Storage capability A computer has much more storage capability. It can store large amount of data. It can store any type of data such as image, video, text document, audio and many more. 4. Diligence Diligence ...

Introduce Linux, UNIX and Linux distribution.

 . Linux Linux is an open source operating system. The term Linux is actually referred to mean a kernel of Unix like operating system developed by a Finish software architect Linus Torvald. The name Linux is derived from Linus' Unix. Linux was originated from the inspiration of a small Unix like operating system MINIX by A.S Tanenbum. Linux is a complete multiuser, multiprocessing, secure and stable operating system which is also considered as UNIX clone. However no code from the proprietary from AT and T is included in Unix. It has flavor of Unix but is not Unix. UNIX  UNIX is a layered operating system. The innermost layer is the hardware that provides the service for the OS. The operating system, referred to in UNIX as the kernel, interacts directly with the hardware and provides the services to the user program. These user programs don't need to know anything about the hardware. They just need to know how to interact with the kernel and it's up to the kernel to provide ...

Open System Interconnect (OSI) Reference Model

 . Open system interconnection (OSI) Model explains how packet travels through various layers to other devices on a network, even if the sender and destination have different types of network media. Layer 1(Physical layer):  Function  To activate, maintain, deactivate the physical connection.  To define voltage and data rates needed for transmission.  To convert the digital bits into electrical signals.  To decide weather the transmission the transmission is simplex, half or full duplex.  Physical layer doesn’t perform the detection and correction of errors. Layer 2 (Datalink layer):  Framing (stream of bits into manageable data units):  The datalink layer divides the stream of bits received from the network layer into frame manageable data units called frames.  Physical addressing (MAC Address):  Data link layer adds a header to header to the frame to define the sender and receiver of the frame. Flow Control (mechanism for overwhel...
