RECENT TRENDS
Fast food has become one of the fastest-growing segments of the hotel and catering industry. This growth
has not only been fuelled by consumer demand, but also through the expansion of the supply base
through diversification. This diversification has taken four forms.
PRODUCT DIVERSIFICATION
While fast-food menus have been traditionally limited in breadth and depth of product mix, as the market
has matured, so increased variety has become the norm. For example, the major hamburger chains offer
not only pizza, chicken, baked potatoes, sandwiches, and salads, but also different variations of these
foodstuffs. Their provision means that the chains are able to offer a new experience to their existing
customers and possibly appeal to a new customer base. In the United States, product diversity has taken a
branded route, with companies supplying complementary products, forming strategic alliances in order to
create dual-branded stores.

QUESTION
Create the following Table in Excel;
RollNo Name Math English Science Total Result Division
Note: Pass Marks Should be 50 and total, result should be computed using formula. Those
who failed wont have division and compute the division of rest using formula in next sheet
(next sheet should contain only Rollno and Division while the first sheet will contain
columns as given above except Division). Also validate marks should not contain more
than 100 or less than 0. If so persist warning information.
Solution:
Well, the question asks us to create two sheets the first with RollNo, Name, Math, English, Science, Total and Result and the second
sheet with RollNo and Division.
Enter the headings as asked in sheet1 and sheet2.
Enter formula to calculate Total (F2) on Sheet1:
= C2 + D2 + E2
Enter Formula to calculate Result (G2) on Sheet1:
= IF (OR(C2<50, D2<50, E2<50), Fail, Pass)
[ If any of the marks is less than 50, the Result is Fail, otherwise, Pass]
Alternately, you can use any of the following formula to calculate Result.
= IF ( AND( C2>=50, D2>=50, E2>=50), Pass, Fail )
[ If all of the marks is greater than or equal to 50, Result is Pass otherwise, Fail ]
= IF ( MIN (C2:E2)<50, Fail, Pass )
[ If the minimum marks is less than 50, Result is Fail, otherwise, Pass ]
Go to the Sheet 2 and on A2 enter formula =Sheet1!A2 and hit Enter. This will produce on A2 of Sheet2 whatever it was on A2 of
Sheet1. Drag the fill handle down to fill the same formula to all the rows existing in Sheet1.
On B2 of Sheet2 enter formula to calculate Division:
=IF( Sheet1!G2 = Fail, *, IF ( Sheet1!F2 / 3 >= 75, First Division, IF ( Sheet1!F2/3 >= 60, Second Division, Third Division
)))
[ If Result cell of Sheet 1 contains Fail, enter *, otherwise, If Total cell of Sheet1 / 3 (average or percent) is more than or equal to 75, enter
First Division, otherwise, if average is more than or equal to 60, enter Second Division and enter Third Division for the rest. ]
To set validation on marks:
Go to the Sheet 1 and select the cells where marks is entered. Go to Data >> Validation.
On Settings tab configure:
Allow whole number; Data between; Maximum 100; Minimum 0

QUESTION
Part 1
Type the passage below, font size 12 point, exclude the border, & save it as virus [10 marks]
Protect Yourself: Computer Viruses
Viruses, Trojan horses & worms are human-made software programs created specifically to wreak
havoc on personal computers and networks. The chance of contracting one of these computerviruses
over the Internet has increased dramatically. In fact, unless you run anti-virus software, your
computer will almost certainly become infected. Typically, you get a virus by opening infected e-mail
attachments.
Some viruses are relatively harmless to individuals. They just attach themselves to outgoing messages
or e-mail themselves to all the contacts listed in your address book. The sudden flood of e-mail
overwhelms mail servers, causing the system to crash.
Other viruses are more destructive and may lie dormant until a certain date. Then they spring to life
to do their dirty deeds. Sometimes a strange message appears on your screen, or data and programs
may be modified. In the worst case, all the files on your hard drive may be wiped out. These
pernicious programs start on one computer, then replicate quickly, infecting other computers around
the world.
In 1988 a student at CornellUniversity sent out a virus out by accident, infecting more than 6,000
computers in minutes, nearly bringing the Internet to its knees. More recently, the "I Love You"
virus caused over $1 billion in lost productivity as it crippled e-mail systems worldwide. Last year
alone, 10,000 new viruses, Trojan horses and worms were unleashed.

QUESTION
Type the passage below as it is. Use font size 12. [8 marks]
what is a Browser?
A browser is a computer program that resides on your computer enabling you to use the computer to view
WWW documents and access the Internet taking advantage of text formatting, hypertext links, images, sounds,
motion, blogs, and other features. Firefox and Internet Explorer are currently the leading "graphical browsers"
in the world (meaning they facilitate the viewing of graphics such as images and video and more). There are
other browsers (e.g., Mozilla, Safari, Opera). Most offer many of the same features and can be successfully used
to retrieve documents and activate many kinds of programs.
Browsers all rely on "plug-ins" to handle the fancier files you find on the Web. Plug-ins are sub-programs
stored within a browser or elsewhere in your computer especially to support special types of files you may click
on. If you click on a link, and your computer does not currently have the plug-in needed for the file you clicked
on, you are usually prompted with an opportunity to get the plug-in. Most plug-ins are free, and easy and safe
to install on your computer; follow the instructions you are given.
The main way in which browsers differ is in the convenience features they offer for navigating and managing
the Web and all the URLs you may want to keep track of. Netscape and Internet Explorer both offer the ability
to e-mail documents, download them to diskette, print them, and keep track of where you've been and sites
you want to "bookmark" or "Add to Favorites" (Microsoft's name bookmarks).

QUESTION
TYPE THE PASSAGEbelow, font size 14 point, & save it as Internet [5 marks]
What is the Internet?
The Internet is a network of networks, linking computers to computers sharing the TCP/IP
protocols. Each runs software to provide or "serve" information and/or to access and view
information.
The Internet is the transport vehicle for the information stored in files or documents on another
computer. It can be compared to an international communications utility servicing computers. It is
sometimes compared to a giant international plumbing system. The Internet itself does not contain
information. It is a slight misstatement to say a "document was found on the Internet." It would be
more correct to say it was found through or using the Internet. What it was found in (or on) is one of
the computers linked to the Internet.

QUESTION
PART 1
Type the passage below, font size 10 point, & save it WWW [10 marks]
What is the World Wide Web and what makes it work?
The WWW incorporates all of the Internet services above and much more. You can retrieve documents, view
images, animation, and video, listen to sound files, speak and hear voice, and view programs that run on
practically any software in the world, providing your computer has the hardware and software to do these
things.
When you log onto the Internet using a web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Fire fox, Mozilla, Netscape,
Opera, Safari), you are viewing documents on the World Wide Web. The basic foundation on which the WWW
function is the programming language called HTML. It is HTML and other programming imbedded within
HTML that make possible hypertext. Hypertext is the ability to have web pages containing links, which are
areas in a page or buttons or graphics on which you can click your mouse button to retrieve another document
into your computer. This "click ability" using Hypertext links is the feature, which is unique and revolutionary
about the Web.
How do hypertext links work?
Every document or file or site or movie or sound file or anything you find on the Web has a unique URL
(uniform resource locator) that identifies what computer the thing is on, where it is within that computer, and
its specific file name. (More explanation on the structure of URLs.) Every Hypertext link on every web page in
the world contains one of the URLs. When you click on a link of any kind on a Web page, you send a request
to retrieve the unique document on some computer in the world that is uniquely identified by that URL. URLs
are like addresses of web pages. A whole cluster of internationally accepted standards (such as TCP/IP and
HTML) make possible this global information retrieval phenomenon that transcends all political and language
boundaries.
Part 2
a) Change the font type of the whole passage to Arial [2 marks].
b) Center the two headings, underline, set the font size to 12 & change the font type to Arial
Black. [4 marks].

QUESTION
PART 1
Type the passage below, font size 12 point, & save it as Cards [10 marks]
COMPUTER CARDS
Cards are components added to computers to increase their capability. When adding a peripheral
device makes sure that your computer has a slot of the type needed by the device.
Sound cards
Allow computers to produce sound like music and voice. The older sound cards were 8 bit then 16
bit then 32 bit. Though human ear can't distinguish the fine difference between sounds produced by
the more powerful sound card they allow for more complex music and music production.
Colour cards
Allow computers to produce colour (with a colour monitor of course). The first colour cards were 2
bits, which produced 4 colours [CGA]. It was amazing what could be done with those 4 colours.
Next came 4 bit allowing for 16 [EGA and VGA] colours Then came 16 bit allowing for 1064
colours and then 24 bit which allows for almost 17 million colours and now 32 bit is standard
allowing monitors to display almost a billion separate colours.
Video cards
Allow computers to display video and animation. Some video cards allow computers to display
television as well as capture frames from video. A video card with a digital video camera allows
computers users to produce live video. A high speed or network connection is needed for effective
video transmission.
Network cards
Allow computers to connect together to communicate with each other. Network cards have
connections for cable, thin wire or wireless networks.

QUESTION
PART 1
Type the passage below, font size 12 point, & save it as CompSystem. [10 marks]
The Four Operations of a Computer System
Input
Home computers are microcomputers. Input is supplied to the microcomputer with the use of a keyboard, a
mouse, or another input device. These input devices may be called peripheral devices.
Processing
Processing is done inside the computer in an area called the central processing unit (CPU). Processing is the
conversion of input to output.
Storage
Storage refers to holding information somewhere.
RAM, Random Access Memory, is short-term memory. It is volatile memory because the memory is
automatically "erased" when the power is turned off or interrupted. The RAM memory is located inside the
computer case on the motherboard. A motherboard is not the keyboard. The keyboard is what you type with.
A motherboard holds RAM memory, electronic circuits and other computer parts including the central
processing unit. ROM, Read-Only-Memory, is not volatile meaning the memory is still there when power is
interrupted or turned off. When the computer is turned back on again, ROM memory is still in storage on the
internal hard disk.
Output
Output is the result of a computer process. Output may be viewed on a monitor screen, heard through
speakers, printed on printers, and so forth. Output devices may be considered hardware and are also
considered to be peripheral devices.

f) Insert a footer written The Four Operations of a Computer System. [1 mark].
g) Split the passage, excluding the heading, into two columns (with a line between the columns) [4
marks].
h) Double underline all subheadings & increase font size to 16. [4 marks]
i) Create a table with 4 columns & 2 rows. Enter headings: Input, output, software & storage, and give
2 examples of each. Bold the headings. [4 marks]
j) Save it as Compsystem2 & produce a print out

QUESTION
PART 1
Type the passage below, font size 12 point, & save it as System. [10 marks]
A Basic Computer "System"
A computer system refers to the computer AND all of its equipment. Equipment like speakers,
printer, keyboard, scanner, etc. is called peripheral equipment, sometimes shortened to "peripherals".
The central processing unit (CPU) is considered to be "the computer". Without peripheral equipment
(such as monitor, printer, speakers, etc.) for input and output the microcomputer (home computer)
will not be able to do anything you find useful.
Your computer system cannot help you type a letter unless you have some type of software
(program) to do this. A word processing program handles most typing. A software program for
your computer can be purchased at stores like Office Depot, Staples, and computer stores. Check
your local telephone directory for a computer store in your area. Sometimes when you purchase a
computer it already has a word processing program installed. If you buy a computer from a large
electronics chain store, even if you have to travel out of town, you will get a better price as a rule
than buying from a smaller chain store in town. Ask in town first, if they would be willing to match
another store's Advertised price... See "Buying A Computer", next

The Macintosh Computer
The Macintosh computer is commonly referred to as a "Mac". Apple Computer has produced a
PowerMac, an iMac, and a PowerMac G4, and the PowerMacG5. The operating system of the
PowerMac G4 or G5 has undergone revisions. Each major version also has a name: OS X version
10.2.x is Jaguar; version 10.3.x is Panther, and the version 10.4.x is Tiger. The Apple PowerMac
computers (the G4 and the G5) have two processors (for parallel processing) instead of just one, and
there is space inside the computer to upgrade to 4 hard disks in a RAID array to give more power to
the computer functioning as a server. Sometimes the computer tower is called a "box" which is a
slang word for "the computer". You could say, "There are two processors inside the box."
There is software specially designed for the PowerMac computers to help move files from a
Windows 98, ME, or 2000 system (XP is not listed on the box) to the Mac OS X. This software is
called Move2Mac and is a product of Detto Technologies. I found my copy of the shrink-wrapped
software on a shelf at a large Fry's Electronics store. A lot of computer software can be purchased
using a credit card with a secure connection over the Web, then downloading that software to your
own computer. I prefer having a CD or other disk with the software on the disk.
The Macintosh has excelled in the commercial graphics and publishing industries and thousands of
people prefer a Mac for home use rather than a PC. The PC computers currently have a much
greater market share and there are millions in use in homes and businesses throughout the world.
When you attend college the college will specify which type of computer, Mac or PC, will be in use at
the college for faculty and students. Some colleges use just Mac computers in campus buildings and
for the faculty. Other colleges use PCs.
(In the following paragraphs I use OS to mean "operating system")
Prior to the Macintosh OS X operating system the Macs used an operating system based upon a
single processor (computer CPU) which processed data and ran applications using what was called
cooperative multitasking. Cooperative multitasking allowed programs to sometimes take control of
the central processing unit. Now with the newer Macintosh operating system, OS 10.2.x (Jaguar) and
later versions there is a UNIX-like kernel in the operating system, two processors and the central
processing unit processes data with symmetric multiprocessing (uses both CPU's or "chips" to
process data) and it uses pre-emptive multitasking, not allowing any application to take control of the
central processing units.

QUESTION
PART 1
Type the passage below, font size 10 point, & save it as CPU. [10 marks]
Central Processing Unit and Software Compatibility
The computer processor inside a PC or PC-clone computer has totally different architecture
(microscopic "wiring" schematic) inside the central processing unit chip (the CPU, or "chip"). In
other words, the specific way the circuits are laid out in a computer chip (CPU, central processing
unit) is called the chip architecture. PC chips and Mac chips have processing units with totally
different architecture. Software is not interchangeable. Buy Mac software for the Macintosh and buy
PC software for PC computers. An Apple or Mac computer is not a PC. Most PC computers are
sold new with a Windows operating system but keep in mind that other operating systems can also
run on PC-architecture machines. One example of another operating system that can run on a PC
machine is Linux for Windows. When two operating systems are on a disk they are installed on
separate "partitions" of the disk. That is similar to two songs on one CD having to be on separate
"tracks".
Hardware and Software
Usually, things you can see and touch on a computer or inside a computer are called "hardware"
whereas programs for the computer (digital instructions) are called software. A computer
programmer who writes lines of code for the computer creates software. An interpreter or compiler
is a smaller program, which changes the programmer's code into machine instructions for the central
processing unit. After much testing and debugging, the programmer's code is finally "packaged" into
executable files which make up the final "software" which can be purchased later, or might be
"bundled" with the computer when you buy it (meaning that some software is already installed when
you buy the computer.)
Part 2
a) Change the font type of the whole document to Courier or Courier new [2 marks].
b) Center the heading & Sub heading, double underline it, increase the font size to 18 & change
the font type to Tahoma. [4 marks].
c) Perform a word count and type the number of words at the bottom of the passage. [3 marks].
d)
e)
Perform Drop caps on every character that begins a paragraph (drop 3 lines). [4 marks]
