Explanation of Solution

Whether the creator of a program is liable for errors:

  • The complete accuracy of complex program is impossible to verify due to the high immensity of all the considerations taken for any particular situation.
  • In any complex program, there is a vast quantity of possible inputs and their combinations. Since, time taken to test these cases is too much, so the creators try to generalize them...

The absence of error warnings throughout the translation of a computer code is necessary but not sufficient for acceptable (programmatic) correctness, as previously stated by computer scientists Richard Conway and David Gries.Substitute another word or words for "necessary" and "sufficient" that together have the same meaning. (If it makes more sense to break it up into two sentences, by all means do so.)
Write the mnemonics of the following program: The pressure of two boilers is monitored and controlled by a microcomputer works based on microprocessor programming. A set of 6 readings of first boiler, recorded by six pressure sensors, which are stored in the memory location starting from 2050H. A corresponding set of 6 reading from the second boiler is stored at the memory location starting from 2060H. Each reading from the first set is expected to be higher than the corresponding position in the second set of readings. Write an 8085 sequence to check whether the first set of reading is higher than the second one or not. If all the readings of first set is higher than the second set, store 00 in the ‘D’ register. If any one of the readings is lower than the corresponding reading of second set, stop the process and store FF in the register ‘D’. Data (H): First set: 78, 89, 6A, 80, 90, 85 Second Set:71, 78, 65, 89, 56, 75
As compared to other areas of study, how does computer science stand out? I need to know when and in what sequence these occurrences take place.to decide on a language for computer programming?
