1. Problem identification: During this phase, you will be able to identify the data involved in processing, its type and quality, a formula to be used, activities involved and the output to be obtained.
2. Preparing algorithms and flowcharts: Once the problem is identified, it is necessary to develop a precise step-by-step procedure to solve the problem.
3. Coding the program: The process of writing program instructions to solve a problem is called coding. The program written in any HLL is known as source code.
4. Translation: It is the process of converting a program written in the high-level language into its equivalent version in machine language. The compiler or interpreter is used for this purpose.
5. Debugging: In this stage, programming errors are discovered and corrected. Programming errors are known as ‘bugs’ and the process of detecting and correcting these errors is called debugging.

a. Valid
b. Valid
c. Invalid; White space is used.
d. Invalid; the First letter is a digit.

Wide Area Network (WAN). This is used to connect computers over a large geographical area. It is a network\of network. Here the computers are connected using telephone lines or microwave station or satellites. The error rate in data transmission is high, eg., internet. Local Area Network (LAN). This is used to connect computers in a single room or buildings of one location by using twisted pair wire or coaxial cable. Data transfer rate is high and an error rate is less.

-3
OR
a. It is true. The variable is a type of char and the value assigned is a character value.
b. This statement is wrong. The variable is a type of char and the value assigned is a string.

The following are the requirements for connecting a computer to the Internet:
1. (NIC) and an operating system that supports TCP/IP.
2. Modem

• eBusiness reduces the operational cost.
• It minimizes travel time and cost. Challenges to eBusiness:
• Most of the people are unaware of online business and its possibilities or they do not know how to conduct this.
• Most of the people from rural areas do not have plastic money (debit card, credit card) which is necessary for eBusiness.
If not used with caution your valuable information like credit card no., password etc. may lose.

1. Dot matrix printers use small electromagnetically activated pins in the print head and an inked, to produce images by an impact. These printers are slow and noisy.
2. Inkjet printers form the image on the page by spraying tiny droplets of ink from the printed head. The printer needs several colors of ink. These are inexpensive, but the cost of ink cartridge makes it a costly.
3. Laser printer produces good quality output. The image to be printed is transferred to a drum using a laser beam. The toner powder from the toner cartridge is then sprayed on the drum. The toner powder sticks onto the portions traced the drum by the laser beam. It is transferred to a paper by rolling the paper on the drum. Through heating, the powder is fused on to the paper. Laser printers are faster and their speed is in page per minute (ppm).
4. The thermal printer produces a printed image by selectively heating heat-sensitive when it passes over the thermal print head.
