Computer in Real world

        Computer is used in almost every field in developed countries. Industrial advancement, agriculture, defense, education, commerce and business, medicine, tourism, banking etc., are the core areas where computer science is utilized. Today man can communicate from one part of the world to the other part easily, which is an example of the advancement of computer science. Within a minute, man can communicate through telephone, Telex, Fax & TV from one part of the world to the other. Computer helped in banking network also. Your deposited money in a bank of foreign country can be withdrawn using ATM(Asynchronous Transfer Mode) card or Master Card from the other country, and your hand-prints can be sent to any part of the world at great speed.
                  Computer has its application not only in manufacturing, medical research, education and defense,but it is also used in small business offices to handle day-to-day work easily and efficiently. Due to growing importance and numerous applications of computer, it is essential to provide computer education.
                   Computers are used as aids in the study of gravity, flow of electric current, atomic structure, chemical reactions, blood circulation, etc., as textual matter and/or graphical analysis. Computer assist the students in learning and understanding the subject matter easily.
                  Computer is used in developed countries in the study of history, mathematics, geography etc. Similarly mathematics, science and statistics are taught with the aid of computers. Distance learning like "Open University" is another educational application in Europe and America.
                  Students can get University level education with the aid of computers through the "Open University". In 1960's computers were basically applied in research and in 1970's computers were used in industries for process control and quality control. In 1980's , computers were extensively used in education and economic development. At the beginning of 1990's , a new subject has been introduced in education which is called ' Information Technology'.
                     Information Technology is recently developed technology which includes fast processing capabilities of  information and transmitting them from one part of the world to the other. It has tremendously increased the capabilities in telecommunication , television, Telex, fax etc. Staying one corner of the world , one can receive information from any part of the world or he can transmit the information easily with the use of information technology devices.
                   Computer helps in decision making. Sometimes the situations are erroneous in the study of science and mathematics. Complicated mathematical problems and error free scientific processing can be done easily with the help of computers. It is also helps in checking the student's exam paper( Objective types), database management, spreadsheet calculations, record keeping and numerous other activities.

Passing arrays to functions in C programming

Like any other variables, we can also pass entire array to a function. An array name can be named as an argument for the prototype declaration and in function header. When we call the function no need to subscript or square brackets. When we pass array that pass as a call by reference because the array name is address for that array. /* Program to illustrate passing array to function */ #include<stdio.h> void display(int) ; /* function prototype */ main( ) { int num[5] = {100, 20, 40, 15, 33, i ; clrscr( ) ; printf (“\n The content of array is \n”) ; for (i=0; i<5; i++) display (num[i]) ; /*Pass array element fo fun */ getch{ } ; } void display(int n) { printf (“\t%d”, n ) ; } Output:     The content of array is 100      20       40       15 3 /* Program to read 10 numbers from keyboard to store these num into array and then c...

Object Oriented Programming

Object Oriented Programming Programming paradigm that represents the concept of "objects" that have data fields (attributes that describe the object) and associated procedures known as methods Programming methodology based on objects, instead of just functions and procedures Focuses on data rather than process As individual objects can be modified without affecting other aspects of the program, it is easier for programmers to structure and organize software programs Easier to update and change programs written in object-oriented languages Simula was the first object oriented programming language Eg: C++, Java, etc. Features of OOPS Objects Referred as instance of class Basic run-time entities in an object-oriented system a person, a place, a bank account, a table of data, etc can be an object They occupy space in memory that keeps its state  Each object contains data and code to manipulate the data  Classes Blue print or prototype  which ...

Recursive Function in C programming

             If a statement within the body of a function calls the same function, the function is called recursive function. Actually, recursion is a process by which a function calls itself repeatedly until some specified condition has been satisfied. This process is used for repetitive computations in which each action is stated in term of previous result. Many iterative or repetitive problems can be written in this form.                To solve a problem using recursive method, two conditions must be satisfied. They are: 1)       Problem could be written or defined in term of its previous result. 2)       Problem statement must include a stopping condition. /*   An example of recursive function to calculate factorial of a number.*/    #include<stdio.h>    #include<conio.h...
