1. short note on "Y2K problem ? Ans:
The Year 2000 problem (also known as the Y2K problem, the millennium bug, the Y2K bug, or simply Y2K) was a notable problem for both digital (computer-related) and non-digital documentation and data storage situations which resulted from the practice of abbreviating a four-digit year to two digits. In computer program design, the practice of representing the year with two digits becomes problematic with logical error(s) arising upon "rollover" from x99 to x000. This has caused some date-related processing to operate incorrectly for dates and times on and after http://www.answers.com/topic/january-1, http://www.answers.com/topic/2000 and on other critical dates which were billed "http://www.answers.com/topic/event-horizon-1". Without corrective action, it was suggested that long-working systems would break down when the "...97, 98, 99, 00..." ascending numbering assumption suddenly became invalid. Companies and organizations worldwide checked, fixed, and upgraded their computer systems. While no globally significant computer failures occurred when the clocks rolled over into 2000, preparation for the Y2K bug had a significant effect on the computer industry. Countries that spent very little on tackling the Y2K bug (including http://www.answers.com/topic/italy and http://www.answers.com/topic/south-korea) experienced as few problems as those that spent much more (such as the http://www.answers.com/topic/united-kingdom and the http://www.answers.com/topic/united-states), causing some to question whether the absence of computer failures was the result of the preparation undertaken or whether the significance of the problem had been overstated.http://www.answers.com/y2k%20problem#cite_note-0Many banks have responded to the Y2K problem by forcing full 4-digit year entries on cheque forms, which helps to prevent the error from occurring in accounting environments.
