Detailed Answer;
1. Discuss system software.
Ans: System Software
System Software is a set of programs that manage and control the operation of a computer
system and its associated devices. It is responsible for allocating system resources, ensuring
that the hardware and software components of the system work together, and providing an
interface for users, applications, and other systems.
Examples of System Software include operating systems, device drivers, compilers, file, and
disk management utilities, system libraries, and system services.
2. Discuss any two examples of operating systems.
Ans:Example of Operating System:
Windows: Windows is a graphical operating system developed by Microsoft. It allows
users to view and store files, run the software, play games, watch videos, and provides a
way to connect to the internet. It was released for both home computing and
professional works.
Linux: Linux is an open source operating system (OS). An operating system is the
software that directly manages a system's hardware and resources, like CPU, memory,
and storage. The OS sits between applications and hardware and makes the connections
between all of your software and the physical resources that do the work.
3. Write down the function of OS.
 Ans: Function of OS:
 Memory Management. It is the management of the main or primary memory. ...
 Processor Management/Scheduling. Every software that runs on a computer, whether in
the background or in the frontend, is a process. ...
 Device Management. ...
 File Management. ...
 Storage Management.

Fill in the blanks;
1. Any task to be performed which can be thought in terms of inputs and matching outputs is
called Problem.
2. We can reduce the risk of failure by proper planning of a solution.
3. A problem is known as Complex problem if it requires more computational time and
resources to be solved.
4. An Algorithm is a finite sequence of instructions used to solve a specific problem or to
perform a specific task.

Q#1: Name the benefits of step-by-step process of problem solving.
Ans: There are 6 steps to solve a problem efficiently;
1. Identify problem 2. Problem definition 3. Problem analysis
3. Planning solution 5. Test the solution 6.Selecting best solution
Q#2: Omitted
Q#3: What do you mean by problem analysis?
Ans: A problem that initially looks like a human error may be a latent human error that is the result
of a poorly designed user interface, system or process.
Q#4: Differentiate between specific and non-specific instructions in problem solving.
Ans:
Specific Instruction Non-Specific Instruction
1. Sometimes we have clear instructions 1. Sometime we do not have clear
to solve a problem these instructions is instructions or requirements for the
called specific instruction. algorithms and we have to extract them
from problem statements. These are
called non-specified instructions.
2. Specific instructions are clear and 2.Nonspecific instructions can be vague
straightforward, reducing the chance of and ambiguous.
confusing or miscommunication.

Q#7:Differentiate between simple and complex problems.
Ans: Simple Problems:
A problem that can be solved in simple steps is considered “easy” in most
contexts, even if it is large.
Example: Turning on a fun, writing table of a specific number.
Complex Problems:
The problems that cannot be solved in simple steps are called complex
problems.
