1. EBCDIC stands for

Correct Answer: a. Extended Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code

Explanation: EBCDIC is an 8-bit binary code for larger IBMs primarily mainframes in which each
byte represent one alphanumeric character or two decimal digits. 256 characters can be coded
using EBCDIC.

2. BCD is

Correct Answer: a. Binary Coded Decimal

Explanation: BCD is a binary coded notation in which each of the decimal digits is expressed as a
8-bit binary numeral. For example in binary coded decimal notation 12 is 0001 0010 as opposed
to 1100 in pure binary.

3. ASCII stands for

Explanation: ASCII is a code which converts characters – letters, digits, punctuations and control
characters such as Alt, Tab etc – into numeral form. ASCII code is used to represent data
internally in micro-computers. ASCII codes are 7 bits and can represent 0 to 127 and extended
ASCII are 8 bits that represents 0 to 255.

4. Which of the following is first generation of computer

Correct Answer: a. EDSAC

Explanation: IBM-1401, CDC-1604 is second generation computer. ICL-2900 is a fourth


generation computer. EDSAC is important in the development of computer since it was the first
computer to use John von. Neumann’s Stored Program Concept. It used 3000 vacuum tubes and
computers with vacuum tubes are of first generation computers.

5. Chief component of first generation computer was
