Memory & IO Components have to be connected externally
2. It is mainly used in washing machines, MP3 It is mainly used in Personal Computers.
Players etc.
3. Power Consumption is low Power Consumption is high

Electronic Components:
Sensors:

A sensor is a device that detects and responds to some type of input from the physical environment.

Relay: Relays are switches that open and close circuits electronically.

LCD:

 LCD is a flat panel display technology commonly used in TVs,


computer monitors, mobiles and laptops.

Part-B Software

PART-B SOFTWARE

Software:

It includes the operating system (Ubuntu, Linux), utilities (MS office) and application software (Python,
Photoshop).

Visual Coding Tools:

Forever Block:

It is a Control Block. Once the block is activated, all blocks inside of it will be read "forever", forming a loop
.The only way to break is to end or a Stop Script/l block to be read

Repeat Block:

It will process the code it contains for a given amount of time, before allowing its script to continue.

Wait Block:

It is used to break (or) pause the repetition for a time interval.

Control statement:

IF statements - used to execute a statement under a certain condition. ELSE enables the selection of
statements to be executed after a condition is tested.

Operators:

 It is a symbol that usually represents an action or process. These symbols were adapted from
mathematics and logic.

 Operators are the backbone of any program.

 Operators has some Boolean Blocks also

Variables:

 Areas allocated by the computer memory to hold data.


 In the below example Celsius is the variable name that is created.
 While creating the variable the methods (set and change) will appear automatically.

 Example: Number1 =100 Age = 10


Variable
 Identify the variable from the following
X =100;
Sname=” IHS”

Answer Here:

X=100

ANDROID:

1. Which of the following control statement is used for an infinite loop?

Answer Here:

Forever Block

2. In General, for checking conditions we use if blocks.


Then, for replicated condition which block is used?

3. When we are visiting Malls & restaurants we might have noticed the water tap and hand dryer which
automatically releases the water and air. List the components used in hardware and software.

Hardware Software

It includes the mother board, and sensors. It includes the operating system, utilities and
