Best Answer

There are more than two types, but the main categories are flat head and cross/star screwdrivers.

Actually, there are four: flathead or standard, phillips head, hex or Allen head, or Torx or star head. Torx/star head and Allen/hex head fasters are more often than not bolts, differentiated from screws, but there are a number of different styles of actual screws that are manufactured for these two bits as well.

How do you take the CD deck out of a rx7?

Assuming you are dealing with one of the newer (90+) mazdas, there are two vertical plastic pieces on the sides of the faceplate. Pop those off with a tiny screwdriver. Then you will need either a radio removal tool, or two narrow but long (~6") screwdrivers to insert into the two holes in order to release the clips holding the radio in. I believe that you have to push the tips of the screwdrivers towards the radio, but I can't remember for sure. Pull gently and wiggle the screwdrivers, and the radio should work itself loose.


Does the word 'a' have a meaning?

It conveys meaning. It marks the following word as a noun, and also as a singular noun. It also denotes that the object spoken of is not singled out for attention; it suggests that it is one of a group which are indistinguishable from each other for the purposes of the sentence. "Bring me a screwdriver from the toolbox" means that the person wants one screwdriver, no more, but it can be any one of the screwdrivers in the toolbox. It is implied that there are two or more screwdrivers in the box. "Bring me a Phillips screwdriver from the toolbox" means again that the person wants only one screwdriver, but it can be any one of the Phillips screwdrivers in the toolbox. There may be screwdrivers which are not Phillips, but there are certainly two or more Phillips ones.
