20 Disadvantages of bus topology 2

1.Identification of problems becomes difficult if the whole network goes
down
2. Need terminators are required at both ends of the main cable
Disadvantages of star topology
1.If hub goes down everything goes down, none of the devices can work
without hub.
2.More expensive than linear bus topology due to the value of the
connecting devices (network switches)

or
What are routers?.
A router is a network device that can receive the data , analyse it and
transmit it to other networks . It is used to connect a Local Area Network to

KVS RO EKM - STUDENT SUPPORT MATERIAL (COMPUTER SCIENCE-083) FOR THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2022-23 262
 the internet. Using a routing table, it ensures that data packets are travelling
through the best suitable paths to their destinations.
In simple words, a gateway is a device that we use for communicating among
various networks possessing different protocol sets. It is responsible for
converting a given protocol to another one.Gateway connects dissimilar

22 What is scope? What is the scope resolving rule in python? 2

The scope of a variable is the region of a program in which the variable is
visible, i.e., in which it is accessible by its name and can be used.
Scope resolution is required when a variable is used to determine where
should its value be come from. Scope resolution in Python follows the LEGB
rule.

25 1. Order By : 2
Order by keyword sort the result-set either in ascending or in descending
order. This clause sorts the result-set in ascending order by default. In
order to sort the result-set in descending order DESC keyword is used.
Order By Syntax –
SELECT column_1, column_2, column_3...........
FROM Table_Name
ORDER BY column_1, column_2, column_3....... ASC|DESC;
2. Group By :
Group by statement is used to group the rows that have the same value. It
is often used with aggregate functions for example:AVG(), MAX(), COUNT(),
MIN() etc. One thing to remember about the group by clause is that the
tuples are grouped based on the similarity between the attribute values of
tuples.
Group By Syntax –
SELECT function_Name(column_1), column_2
FROM Table_Name
