Correct Answer : Option (C) - Z-80


Z-80 is a 8-bit chip was used in many of Tandy's TRS-80 computers
 
The TRS-80 Micro Computer System (TRS-80, later renamed the Model I to distinguish it from successors) is a desktop microcomputer launched in 1977 and sold by Tandy Corporation through their Radio Shack stores. The name is an abbreviation of Tandy/Radio Shack, Z-80 microprocessor. It was one of the earliest mass-produced and mass-marketed retail personal computers.
 
The TRS-80 featured a full-stroke QWERTY keyboard, the new Zilog Z80 processor (rather than the more common Intel 8080), 4 KB DRAM standard memory (when many 8-bit computers shipped with only 1 KB RAM), small size and desk footprint, floating-point BASIC programming language, standard 64-character/line video monitor, and a starting price of US$600[1] (equivalent to US$2400 in 2017).

Correct Answer : Option (B) - 6 digits


The smallest change in a decimal number that can be portrayed by floating-point representation is called precision. The fractional part has exactly 24 bits of implied resolution. Accuracy, on the other hand, is the floating-point number represented by the number of prominent bits in which the range of after decimal is limited.
 
There are some standards to define very few special floating-point bit pattern zeroes which at the most can have only a single bit hence it can be normalized, the hidden but it is often represented by technique for storing zero.

Human ware

Correct Answer : Option (D) - Human ware


Humanware is hardware and software that emphasizes user capability and empowerment and the design of the user interface. The process of building humanware generally consists of these steps:
1. Define users (age, mindset, environmental context, previous product experience and expectations, and so forth) and what they really want to do.
2. Identify tasks they will need to do or capabilities they will want
3. Specify usability objectives (if possible, these should be measurable, such as how long to do something or how many mouse clicks to get to a specified task point) for each task or capability.
4. Build a prototype of the user interface (it can be a paper or simulated prototype if time is short)
5. Test and verify or correct the prototype
6. Provide the prototype and usability objectives to the program designers and coders.
