Computer Science

Facebook was launched in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg and his college roommates. This is a well-documented fact in technology history.

Ray Tomlinson is credited with inventing email in 1971 by implementing the first networked email system on ARPANET, making him known as the father of email.

A laser printer is a non-impact printer because it uses a laser beam to produce an image on a drum that is then transferred to paper, unlike impact printers which physically strike an ink ribbon to print.

EDVAC stands for Electronic Discrete Variable Automatic Computer, which was one of the earliest electronic computers designed to store programs in memory.

DOS stands for Disk Operating System, which is the correct full form of the acronym DOS. It refers to an operating system that runs from a disk drive.

The BIOS is typically stored in an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory), which allows it to be updated or rewritten. Flash memory is a type of EEPROM, but the more precise and commonly accepted term for BIOS storage is EEPROM.

Drivers are software programs that allow the computer to communicate effectively with printers, enabling smooth operation and proper functionality.

ALU stands for Arithmetic Logic Unit, which is a fundamental component of a computer's CPU responsible for performing arithmetic and logical operations.

AI stands for Artificial Intelligence, which refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines programmed to think and learn.

Floppy disk drives, hard disk drives, and optical disk drives are storage devices, not input or output devices. A teleprinter is an input/output communication device. Since the group includes storage devices and a communication device, none of the options 'Input device', 'Output device', or 'Both A and B' correctly categorize all of them together.
