2. What is meant by computer software differentiate between system
software and application software
ANS
Computer software refers to a set of instructions or programs that tell a
computer what to do. It is a collection of data, instructions, and algorithms
that are used to operate computers and make them perform specific tasks.
System Software:
System software is a type of software that is designed to operate and
control the computer hardware and software infrastructure. It provides a
platform for running application software and enables the computer to
perform basic tasks such as input/output operations, memory
management, and process control. Examples of system software include:
Application Software:
Application software, on the other hand, is designed to perform specific
tasks or solve specific problems. It is used to accomplish specific goals or
tasks, such as word processing, gaming, or web browsing. Examples of
application software include:

4. Differentiate between simple, half duplex and full duplex mode
ANS
Simplex, Half Duplex, and Full Duplex are communication modes that
define how data is transmitted and received in a communication system.
Simplex Mode:

Q5
5. Differentiate between compiler and interpreter
ANS
Compiler and Interpreter are two types of language processors used to
execute software code:
Compiler:
- Translates high-level language code into machine code before execution.
- Produces an executable file that can run independently.
- Examples: C, C++, Java (compiled to bytecode).
Interpreter:
Key differences:
Q6
6. Define programming language differentiate between low level and high
level language.
ANS
A programming language is a set of rules and instructions that a computer
can understand and execute.
Characteristics:
High-Level Language:
Characteristics:
Q7
7. Define computer explain Basic five operation performed by the
computer also differentiate generation of computers.
ANS
A computer is an electronic device that accepts input, processes data,
stores data, and produces output according to a set of instructions called a
program.
Generations of Computers:
Note: The generations are not strictly linear, and there is some overlap
between them. However, this gives a general idea of the progression of
computer technology over the years.
Q8
8. RAM and ROM and it's types
ANS
RAM (Random Access Memory) and ROM (Read-Only Memory) are two
types of memory technologies used in computers and other electronic
devices.
RAM:
- Temporary storage for data and applications
- Data is lost when power is turned off
- Types:
- DRAM (Dynamic RAM): Most common type, needs periodic refresh
- SRAM (Static RAM): Faster, more expensive, no refresh needed
- EDO RAM (Extended Data Out RAM): Improved version of DRAM
- SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM): Synchronized with CPU clock speed
ROM:
Note: The types of RAM and ROM are not exhaustive, but these are the
most common ones.
Q9
9. Types of printers and Scaners
ANS
Printers:
1. Inkjet Printers: Use liquid ink to print, suitable for home use and photo
printing.
2. Laser Printers: Use toner and laser technology, fast and suitable for
high-volume printing.
3. Dot Matrix Printers: Use impact technology, old and noisy, but still used
for certain applications.
4. 3D Printers: Create physical objects from digital designs, used for
prototyping and manufacturing.
5. Thermal Printers: Use heat to print, commonly used for label printing
and point-of-sale receipts.
6. Solid Ink Printers: Use solid ink sticks, eco-friendly and suitable for
high-quality printing.
7. LED Printers: Similar to laser printers but use LED technology instead
of laser.
Scanners:
Note: These categories are not exhaustive, and some printers and
scanners may overlap in functionality.
Q10
10. Define multimedia right some examples of multimedia application in
basic education.
ANS
Multimedia refers to the combination of multiple forms of media, such as
text, images, audio, video, and interactive elements, to convey
information, entertain, or educate.
