program terminology
Across
- 3. A numbering system that uses only two digits, 0 and 1, which represent off and on states, or false and true in computing.
- 5. A unit of digital information made up of 8 bits. It's commonly used to represent a single character of text in computer systems.
- 6. (Transmission Control Protocol) A communication protocol used to transmit data reliably over networks. It ensures that data sent from one computer to another arrives intact and in the correct order.
- 9. A computer or software system that provides services or resources to other computers, known as clients, over a network. Servers can host websites, store data, manage network traffic, and more.
- 13. Science The study of computers and computational systems, including their design, development, and use.
- 15. A group of interconnected computers or devices that can communicate with each other and share resources and information.
- 18. A value or variable that is passed into a function or subroutine to help it perform its task or calculation.
- 19. A step-by-step procedure or set of rules for solving a problem or accomplishing a task, especially in computing.
- 22. A collection of items or elements, often ordered in a specific sequence, that can be manipulated or accessed in various ways.
- 23. A technology that allows electronic devices to connect to the internet wirelessly using radio waves.
- 24. A way of compressing data without losing any information. When the data is decompressed, it's identical to the original.
- 26. A programming language used to make websites interactive. It's often used to add features like dynamic content, animations, and user input validation.
Down
- 1. Divide The gap between those who have access to modern information and communication technology and those who do not, often due to socioeconomic factors.
- 2. A symbol or name that represents a value in computer programming. The value of a variable can change during the execution of a program.
- 4. A global network of interconnected computers and other devices that communicate using standard protocols.
- 7. A popular programming language known for its simplicity and readability. It's widely used in web development, data analysis, artificial intelligence, and more.
- 8. A set of instructions or code written to perform a specific task or function on a computer.
- 10. Existing or occurring online or in a digital environment rather than in physical space. Virtual objects or environments are created by computer software.
- 11. (Random Access Memory) A type of computer memory that allows data to be accessed randomly and quickly. It's used to store data that the computer is currently working on.
- 12. (Internet Protocol) A protocol used to route data packets across networks and the internet. It assigns a unique address to each device connected to a network, allowing them to communicate with each other.
- 14. (Hypertext Markup Language) The standard markup language used to create and design web pages. HTML defines the structure and content of a web page using tags and attributes.
- 16. Fundamental parts or components of something. In computing, this could refer to basic units of data, code, or design components.
- 17. Intelligence (A.I) The simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. AI technologies include machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision.
- 20. The smallest unit of data in a computer. A bit can represent either a 0 or a 1.
- 21. Instructions written in a programming language that tell a computer what to do. It's the language computers understand and execute.
- 23. A collection of web pages that are linked together and accessible over the internet. Websites can contain text, images, videos, and interactive elements.
- 24. A method of compressing data where some information is discarded to reduce file size. When the data is decompressed, it may not be identical to the original.
- 25. A programming construct that repeats a block of code until a specific condition is met or for a specified number of times.
