Off-line storage

Off-line storage Term used to describe any storage that is removable and cannot be accessed by the computer once removed. A good example of off-line storage is a floppy disk. Off-line storage allows a user to store information that will not be affected by computer viruses or hardware failure.Although off-line storage could be considered secondary storage, we've separated these into their own category because this media can be easily removed from the computer and stored elsewhere.

Pointers in C

Pointers are an extremely powerful programming tool. They can make some things much easier, help improve your program's efficiency, and even allow you to handle unlimited amounts of data. For example, using pointers is one way to have a function modify a variable passed to it. It is also possible to use pointers to dynamically allocate memory, which means that you can write programs that can handle nearly unlimited amounts of data on the fly--you don't need to know, when you write the program, how much memory you need. Wow, that's kind of cool. Actually, it's very cool, as we'll see in some of the next tutorials. For now, let's just get a basic handle on what pointers are and how you use them. What are pointers? Why should you care? Pointers are aptly name: they "point" to locations in memory. Think of a row of safety deposit boxes of various sizes at a local bank. Each safety deposit box will have a number associated with it so that you ca...

Types of Computer Networks(LAN,MAN,WAN)

Types of Computer Networks Computer networks are categorized according to: How they are organized physically. The way they are used. The distance over which they operate. Three main types of computer networks are as follows: LAN   (Local Area Network) WAN (Wide Area Network) MAN ( Metropolitan-Area Network) LAN (Local Area Network) LAN is the most common type of network . LAN stands for Local area Network . It covers a small area. Most LANs are used to connect computers in a single building or group of buildings. Hundreds or thousands of computer maybe connected through LAN. Typical LANs can be found in industrial plants, office buildings, and college or university campuses. LANs are capable of transmitting data at very fast rate. Data transmission speeds of LAN are 1 to 100 megabits per second. It is much faster than data transmission over a telephone line. LAN can transmit data in a limited distance. There is also a limit on the number of...
