1. What is machine code? Why is it preferable to write programs in a high level language such as C++?

Programming statements in a low-level language will be close to natural language and will use standard mathematical notation.

Programs are the instructions that automate processes in a computer system. They govern how the components that make up a computer system function and relate to each other. Computer programs can be divided broadly into operating systems and application software, the prior undertake basic operations and manage access to available resources in a system while the later solving defined problem (Bourgeois, 2014). These two classifications continue to spawn new software sub-classifications as computing moves beyond the traditional computers to other gadgets and devices. Most notable is the emergence of mobile and cloud computing.

What would you do if you were faced with a system that you weren’t satisfied with? Would you just accept the system? Would you look for a new one? Linus Torvalds found himself in that situation while in college. His solution: create his own. Due to my research, I believe that I am able to touch upon the life of Mr. Torvalds, and the creation for which he is most widely known. It is my hope to commemorate Mr. Torvalds and his work. The efforts put forth by Linus Torvalds have changed computing in a large way, and for those with an interest in computers, few can claim such significance as he.

Am indebted to Oxford university course on computing for the following, which I reproduce without a full understanding.

Computer hardware engineers research, develop, and test computer systems and components such as processors, circuit boards, memory devices, and many more (Bureau of Labor Statistics). They design new computer hardware, create blueprints of computer equipment to be built. Test the completed models of the computer hardware that they design. Update existing equipment so that it will work will new software. Oversee the manufacturing process for the computer hardware. Maintain knowledge of computer engineering trends and new technology(Bureau of Labor Statistics).

I have also developed a strong interest in mathematics in the way it enables problem solving, which is a big part of computer science. It fascinates me in how the fundamental properties of computational problems are explored with the computational complexity theory. By approaching the description of the computation, using the programming language theory, the programming investigates the use of the programming language and complex system.

It is universally agreeable that with the advent of Computer technology, every ambitious and enthusiastic individual is really obsessed with the idea of doing computer science at graduate level because it seems to have created a zeal and enthusiasm in the hearts of youth, particularly those who aspire to be marked as high achievers. I, for one, seem to have been enchanted by these computer applications as they have made the world smaller, speaking in terms of globalization. I have no hesitation to add that core computerization alone is the suitable answer to all the areas unexploited and to the areas waiting for development. It has always been a fascination for me about how computers work, how these applications are designed and what can be the newer ways to explore the world of computers to make our world better. This interest became a passion for me when I was exposed to computer science basics, during my middle school. Pursuing computer science engineering at undergraduate level, further propelled my passion for computer science along with providing me a deeper insight and in-depth understanding of the subject. After completing my under graduation in Computer Science, I am willing to expedite my research interest and a masters degree seemed the most appropriate choice for realizing my aspirations.

Computer science can be defined as a many number of technological variables, but is primarily defined as the science and processes of information processing in computer hardware and software, as well as its applications within. Computer science is comprised of many aspects that form a larger whole, that take a practical and theoretical approach to the capabilities of computers and how they process input and output information. With computers being conceived as early as the 1830’s, their capabilities have grown exponentially throughout the course of the 20th century, with many aspects of computer science becoming commonplace for the modern consumer. For the purposes of this report, the aspects of computer science that will be covered are formal languages and artificial intelligence.

As you are reading this essay, you are most definitely using a piece of technology whether a laptop or a desktop computer. As we can see in our society, technology is booming in our industry. Every year, technology scientists discover new amazing features that later get implanted into our daily used electronics. These days, one of the most known technology companies like Microsoft and Apple, compete with each other to release what’s best for their customers especially in computers. Apple and Microsoft might be both manufactures and sellers of similar functional computers but, there are many differences in the way their operating systems attract different people with different style. From the different structure of coding, to the same purpose of creating a type of style people feel most comfortable of using. Having a different mechanical structure and it’s components but, with the same functionality it produces. Lastly, getting use to these operating systems on these machines both take time but, which options they provide will depend who’s the buyer.
