An applet is a special kind of Java program that is designed to be transmitted over the Internet and automatically executed by a Java-compatible web browser. Furthermore, an applet is downloaded on demand, without further interaction with the user. If the user clicks a link that contains an applet, the applet will be automatically downloaded and run in the browser. Applets are intended to be small programs. They are typically used to display data provided by the server, handle user input, or provide simple functions, such as a loan calculator, that execute locally, rather than on the server. In essence, the applet allows some functionality to be moved from the server to the client.
There are mainly three difference between binary and text mode. They are as follow. i. In text mode, a special character EOF whose ASCII value is 26 is inserted after the last character in the file to mark the end of file. But, there is no such special character present in the binary mode. The binary mode files keep track of the end of file from the number of characters present in the directory entry of the file. ii. In text mode of file, text and numbers are stored as one character per byte. For example, the number 1234 occupies two bytes in memory but it occupies 4 bytes (one byte per character) in the file. But, in binary mode, the number occupies the number of bytes as it occupies in the memory. Thus, the above number occupies two bytes in file also in the case o...
