Short Answer Questions

Question 1

Define analog computers.

Answer

An analog computer works on varying physical quantities. The data input to a computer is
continuous in nature irrespective of the variations in input and the results are obtained after
comparison.
For example, meter scale, thermometer etc.

Question 2

What is a digital computer?

Answer

A digital computer accepts data in the binary form:

1. Zero (0) means OFF or low signal


2. One (1) means ON or high signal

It gives results in terms of digits. All personal computers and laptops are digital in nature.

For example, digital watches, calculators etc.

Question 3

Define mainframe computers.

Answer

Mainframe computers are large computers with huge storage capacities. These computers are
generally used in large industries, banking organisations, advanced scientific research centres,
etc.

Question 4

What is meant by C++ (as a computer language)?

Answer

1. C++ is an object oriented programming (OOP) language.


2. This high-level language is derived from C language and it applies object oriented features of
Simula 67.
3. C++ is more popular among software professionals as it allows the user to perform long
operations efficiently in short forms.

Question 5

What is an assembler?

Answer

Assembler is a software which is used to convert a program written in assembly level language
into a machine level language. It helps a computer to perform its basic operations.
