stores data and program instructions for the CPU to execute. It is volatile, because information is lost when the power is turned off.

Memory

What is memory for? What does RAM stand for? Why is memory called RAM?

Memory is like a work area for programs. Before a program is executed, it is brought into the memory. RAM stands for random-access memory. It is called RAM because a memory cell can be accessed directly.

B. because digital devices have two stable states and it is natural to use one state for 0 and the other for 1. C. because binary numbers are simplest. D. because binary numbers are the bases upon which all other number systems are built.

because digital devices have two stable states and it is natural to use one state for 0 and the other for 1.

Write a complete main method that prints "Hello, world" to the screen

What are hardware and software?

A computer is an electronic device that stores and processes data. A computer includes both hardware and software. In general, hardware is the physical aspect of the computer that can be seen, and software is the invisible instructions that control the hardware and make it work. The hardware of a computer consists of a CPU, cache, memory, hard disk, floppy disk, monitor, printer, and communication devices.

What is an interpreter? What is a compiler?

An interpreter is a software that reads one statement from the source code, translates it to the machine code or virtual machine code, and then executes it right away. A compiler is a software that translates a program in high-level language into machine language code.

What is the difference between an interpreted language and a compiled language?

An interpreter reads one statement from the source code, and translates it to the machine code or virtual machine code, and then executes it right away. A compiler translates the entire source code into a machine code file, and the machine code file is then executed.

What programming language does Android use?

Android uses the Java programming language.

is a program that translates assembly-language code into machine code.

Assembler

uses short descriptive word to represent each of the machine-language instructions.

Assembly Language

What is an assembly language? What is an assembler?

Assembly language is a low-level programming language in which a mnemonic is used to represent each of the machine language instructions. Assembler is a software that translates assembly language into machine language.

What does the acronym CPU stand for? What unit is used to measure CPU speed? Show Answer

CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. It is the brain of the computer. The unit of measurement of clock speed is the hertz (Hz), with 1 hertz equaling 1 pulse per second. The clock speed of a computer is usually stated in megahertz (MHz) (1 MHz is 1 million Hz).

What is a comment? Is the comment ignored by the compiler? How do you denote a comment line and a comment paragraph?

Comments are used to document what a program is for and how a program is constructed. Comments help the programmers or users to communicate and understand the program. Comments are not programming statements and are ignored by the compiler. In Java, comments are preceded by two forward slashes (//) in a line or enclosed between /* and */ in multiple lines. When the compiler sees //, it ignores all text after // in the same line. When it sees /*, it scans for the next */ and ignores any text between /* and */.

translates the entire source code into a machine-code file.

Compiler

refers to the text entry and display device of a computer.
