Number system and its types:-

Number system :- This is the medium by which we can represent the number into equivalent of different format when we type some letter or word the computer translate them a number because computer can understood only number.

 Types of number system 
  •     Positional number system 
  •     Non positional number system 


Positional Number System:
In positional number system, there are only a few symbols called digits, and these symbols represent different values depending on the position they occupy in the number. The value of each digit in such a number is determined by three considerations__
1.      The digit.
2.      The position of the digit in the number.
3.      The base of the number system.

Non-Positional Number System: 
In the non-positional number systems, the characters used are I for 1, II for 2, etc, and are of position invariant, i.e. each symbol represents the same value regardless of its position in the number. Since it is very difficult to perform arithmetic calculations with such a number system, positional number system were developed. 

There are following types of number system in computer:-

 1. Decimal Number system
2. Binary number system
3. octal number system
4. Hexadecimal number system

 1. Decimal number system :- the base of decimal number system is 10 and used                                               number are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
as a computer programmer or IT expert we used following number system

  I. Binary Number system :- the base of binary number system is 2 and the used number are 0 and 1

 II.Octal number system :- the base of octal number system is 8 and used number are 0 to 7

 III. Hexadecimal number system :- the base of hexadecimal number system is 16 and used number are 0 to 9 and some special character that is A to F

 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 A,B,C,D,E,F.

Operating System

Operating System: - An operating system is a system software which is used to operate a computer its work as an interface between user and machine it’s may enabled to computer hardware. In other word we can say that “ An operating system is a program that acts as an interface between the user and the computer hardware and controls the execution of all kinds of programs . ” An O perating System  or  OS  is a software program that enables the computer  hardware  to communicate and operate with the computer  software . Without a computer operating system, a computer and software programs would be useless Some popular Operating Systems include UNIX Linux, Windows,ANDROIDetc. Types of Operarting system:-                Single user Single Tasking              Single user Multitasking              Multiuser Multitasking

Types Of Computer Network

There are so many different types of computer networks in existence; it can be hard to understand the differences between them, particularly the ones with very similar-sounding names. This lesson explains the structures and functions of some of the most popular computer networks. Types of Networks There are several different types of computer networks. Computer networks can be characterized by their size as well as their purpose. The size of a network can be expressed by the geographic area they occupy and the number of computers that are part of the network. Networks can cover anything from a handful of devices within a single room to millions of devices spread across the entire globe. Some of the different networks based on size are: Personal area network, or PAN Local area network, or LAN Metropolitan area network, or MAN Wide area network, or WAN In terms of purpose, many networks can be considered general purpose, which means they are used f...

Network Topology

Types of Network Connections Computer networks can be broken down historically into topology , which is a technique of connecting computers. The most common topology today is a collapsed ring. This is due to the success of a network protocol called the Ethernet. This protocol, or network language, supports the Internet, Local Area Networks, and Wide Area Networks. Star Topology A star topology is a design of a network where a central node extends a cable to each computer on the network. On a star network, computers are connected independently to the center of the network. If a cable is broken, the other computers can operate without problems. A star topology requires a lot of cabling. Bus Topology A bus topology is another type of design where a single cable connects all computers and the information intended for the last node on the network must run through each connected computer. If a cable is broken, all computers connected down the line cannot r...
