COMPUTER SCIENCE Prove that a two-input multiplexor is also universal by showing how to build the NAND (or NOR) gate using a multiplexor. Verified answer COMPUTER SCIENCE Use the following ideas to develop a nonrecursive, linear-time algorithm for the maximum-subarray problem. Start at the left end of the array, and progress toward the right, keeping track of the maximum subarray seen so far. Knowing a maximum subarray of A[1..j], extend the answer to find a maximum subarray ending at index j + 1 by using the following observation: a maximum subarray of A[1..j + 1] is either a maximum subarray of A[1..j] or a subarray A[i..j + 1], for some 1 ≤ i ≤ j + 1. Determine a maximum subarray of the form A[i..j + 1] in constant time based on knowing a maximum subarray ending at index j. Verified answer

Is this evidence admissible? Why or why not? 4 answers What software controls how the various technology tools work together along with application software?Operating system (OS) – a software that controls and coordinates the computer hardware devices and runs other software and applications on a computer. It is the main part of system software and a computer will not function without it.
Which type of software that control the computer system?System software controls a computer's internal functioning, chiefly through an operating system, and also controls such peripherals as monitors, printers, and storage devices. Application software, by contrast, directs the computer to execute commands given by the user and may be…
What is the software that controls the allocation and use of programs and data that a computer uses?operating system (OS), program that manages a computer's resources, especially the allocation of those resources among other programs. Typical resources include the central processing unit (CPU), computer memory, file storage, input/output (I/O) devices, and network connections.
What type of software are needed to keep all the hardware and software systems running together smoothly?Systems programs keep all the hardware and software running together smoothly. The difference between "application program" and "system program" is fuzzy. Often it is more a matter of marketing than of logic.
