Introduce character set and apply it

 .

A character set is a collection of characters, each of which is represented by a unique code. In computing, character sets are used to represent text and other symbols, such as punctuation marks and mathematical symbols.

There are several character sets in use today, including ASCII, Unicode, and ISO 8859. These character sets differ in the number of characters they support and the way those characters are represented.

ASCII, or the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, is a character set that was developed in the 1960s an dis still widely used today. It includes 128 characters, including the letters of the English alphabet, numerals, punctuation marks and control characters.

Unicode is a character set that was developed in the 1990s and is now the most widely used character set. It includes over 143,000 characters, including the characters from ASCII and many other scripts, such as Chinese, Japanese and Arabic.

In programming, character sets are used to define the set of characters that a program can recognize and process. For example, in C programming, the characters set is defined by the ASCII standard by default. To use a different character set, a programmer must use a library or function that can support that character set.

To apply character sets, programmers must understand the encoding scheme used to represent characters. For example, ASCII characters are encoded using 7 bits, while Unicode characters are encoded using 16 bits or more. This encoding scheme is used to represent characters in computer memory and storage. By understanding the encoding scheme, programmers can properly read, write and manipulate text data in different character sets.

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 ...

Operators and Variables in PHP

 . Operator  An Operator is a symbol that perform certain mathematical and logical operation on operator. It is define as an action upon the two possible values. Operators are used to program operation on the variables and values.  PHP Operators are of following types: Arithmetic Operator Assignment Operator  Logical Operator Comparison Operator Conditional Operator Increment / Decrement Operator Concatenation Operator 1. Arithmetic Operator Arithmetic operator are used to preform arithmetic operation on numeric values. 2. Assignment Operator An assignment operator is mainly responsible for assigning a value to a variable in a program. It is used to value to the variable.  Assignment Same As Description x = y x = y left operand and right operand are same. x + = y X = X + y left operand get added value of right operand. x - = y ...

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 ...
