What is the decimal equivalent of binary number 11111?
31....
Why?
24 + 23 + 22 + 21 + 20 = 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1 = 31
or
25 - 1 = 31
-------------------------------------------------------------------
You can calculate the decimal equivalent of any binary number by adding the powers of two that correspond to each place that a binary digit '1' is in.
With decimal numbers, as you move left one digit, from the rightmost digit, you multiply that digit's value by 10. In binary, you multiply that place value by 2.
For any eight bit binary number (or less) here are the multiples of 2. We always start with (n-1) for the leftmost exponent, because you have to remember that the rightmost exponent is always 0.
27 + 26 + 25 + 24 + 23 + 22 + 21 + 20
which correspond with the following decimal numbers:
128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + 8 + 4 + 2 + 1
All you have to do is add the decimal numbers that correspond with the each binary digit 1 is in.
ie. 10000000 (binary) = 128
11000000 (binary) = 128 + 64 = 192
FYI here are the decimal equivalents for four bit binary numbers:
0000 = 0
0001 = 1
0010 = 2
0011 = 3
0100 = 4
0101 = 5
0110 = 6
0111 = 7
1000 = 8
1001 = 9
1010 = 10 = a (in hexadecimal)
1011 = 11 = b (in hexadecimal)
1100 = 12 = c (in hexadecimal)
1101 = 13 = d (in hexadecimal)
1110 = 14 = e (in hexadecimal)
1111 = 15 = f (in hexadecimal)
The CPU is not like blood, if the CPU were a human body part it would best fit as the brain of the computer.
Besides its nice display and screen. How good is Mac book pro compared to PCs?
Personally, I like PCs much more than any mac because of the fast that they have so many things you can do more with them, like gaming and other demanding programs that any computer made by apple can not run. Also, for the price you would be paying for a MacBook Pro, you could buy a PC with a much faster processor, more RAM, a bigger hard drive, and the list goes on. The only thing that Mac beats PC in is their operating system is very smooth and there are few viruses you can get on a Mac. It really does come down to the preference though, because I personally love Windows 8, and I'm not a huge fan of any of apples operating systems or products at all. So my advice to anyone who reads this is most definitely get a PC.
Why is programable read only memory used for?
Programmable Read-Only Memory (PROM) is used for making firmware for various devices. They differ from the older ROM chips in that they can be erased using UV light and reprogrammed. That is why they have a heavy foil label on the back. The label covers the erasure window to protect it from accidental erasure.
Some of the examples of the applications for PROM chips include:
Automotive computer - The PROM or EPROM stores the defaults for running the car.
Computer ROM BIOS - This is the instructions needed for a computer to even work.
Industrial machinery - The PROMs would contain custom code for running the machinery.
Modem firmware - The PROM chips may contain proprietary communications protocols and compression code.
Can a 6.35 mm mic work on a computer with just the adapter 6.35 to 3.5?
Yes, you can use a microphone which has a 1/4" (6.35 mm) plug in a computer with an 1/8" socket. You would just need to use an adapter.
Now, both the plug and the socket will need to have the same number of conductors. While it might be usable to plug a standard phone plug (2 wires) into a TRS socket ("tip, ring, sleeve" -- 3 wires) or vice-versa, you likely will be missing sound from one side. In that case, there are additional adapters to convert between those types of plugs and sockets.
MAC HELP How do I get an alternate browser on a blocked school laptop?
The school blocks stuff for security reasons. If you install an application or browser that is not approved, then you can be bring vulnerabilities into their network, which makes system admins very upset (im one of those admins) If you are an employee, depending on policies they have, installing unauthorized apps on a computer can lead to termination. If your a student, you can lose school issues laptops privileges, again depending on their policy. Check with their IT department!
Where do the instructions that computer follows come from?
The instructions that computers follow are located in programs. Programs are stored on media such as CDs, DVDs, floppies, USB drives, and hard drives. When a program is loaded, it is copied into RAM, and the CPU executes the instructions inside of the software out of RAM.
What do you mean by volatility in computer?
Working in RAM (Random Access Memory), while being fast, is classed as being volatile as all data is lost when the computer is switch off. So any data so easily lost is volatile unless saved to a hard drive of some kind.

Most people do not realize that they should trim their fingernails before they use a touchscreen computer, but this really is a good idea. You will be touching the computer quite often, and you do not want to scratch the screen. If you do, there will not be any way to fix the scratch.

No they do not have the right to go through ur emails or have any access to your private life. Telephone statements can only be looked at in the case where they pay your bill but not under any circumstance otherwise. Do not ever give them a key to your apartment- even if they provide you with the accomodation- as its your home while your in the UAE and you do not have to give anyone access to it.
