techniques to learn about computer
 
Well, reading the bugging problem in Facebook and in other social websites has really dangled my mind, though I found some sites, but it proved insufficient for noob like me.I am expecting some good explanation, particularly aiming at my teachers"Quantum X and Mustansar Hussain. I hope my query would be resolved, but at the level of [B]mine[/B].

Bugging and its fixation in fb:?
Dude, visit discussion section as well and also explain that one.

To learn bugging & its fixation, one must be well acquainted with
computer programming. Google defines programming as:
[B]"The process of writing computer programs."[/B]

Candidly speaking, its not possible to learn computer programming in short span of time or through
forum discussion. You will be surprised to know that it is that kind of art
which is deliberately avoided in Pakistan by majority of Computer science students because of its rigid nature. It requires practice for long hours, patience for approximately 6 to 8 months and ceaseless commitment to master it perfectly.

Learning to program and CSS preparation cannot be carried together. However, sufferings test strength of endurance.

Well I also read

Regarding CSS (course or syllabus or whatever the Greek it may be), I already subscribed it on my Gmail account, I thought I should start it now, cause I already got very goood and decent teachers, such as Quantam and you.:pp
Lastly, dude, I'm " passionate" to learn new and difficult things, even though it consumes a century.May be bit lunatic but that's what I believe in and I hope I will learn it.Inshallah!:thinking
And today's question, what is " matadata" in surveillance.?

Don't forget to mention some good book, that is worth mentioning to be read so that I can be able to grasp the main idea and that it works.

mustansar~hussain Thursday, March 31, 2016 11:45 PM

Both questions, assignment for tomorrow.

ursula Thursday, March 31, 2016 11:50 PM

Well, dude, I don't understand the questions,
Anticipated answer of yours: nhy afa?
But do tell me which questions as well,
I hope you also visited discussion portion!

I dont have any intention to disappoint you, but the thing you want to learn is prodigiously hectic for you. It can easily take years.

No,hectic is better than fazool chawlyan, instead such activities will save me rambling here and there(iss trahan main much seekh buy jaun g air burry sahubbat aur burre khyalat se bye).I know it'd be difficult, but not impossible, cause the word impossible says- I'm possible.Atleast a pinch of salt to be learnt.
I hope you would help me.:)

Ursula sister, I am just a newbie here, and have just stepped into this CSS world lately, so I don’t deserve to be called “Sir” as my knowledge is very little. In fact I consider both of you my teacher, and have learned a lot from you, because of the contribution you made to the forum. I hold you members in high esteem because of enormous knowledge you have.

Now let’s come to the query being asked by you, but in order to comprehend the concept of how a bug can affect a computer system, it is required to first understand the a few basics, that how a combination of both software and hardware work together to perform a task.

Basically digital computers which we use normally, operate on bits, and bit is smallest unit of information. Bit can either be 0(zero) or 1(not literally). Zero is considered as an off signal, and 1 is considered as an ON signal. For our own ease, the convention was set by the pioneers that 0 and 1 would represent OFF and ON signal. For example if you write “A” in computer’s notepad, then how computer understands it is something like “01000001”. 8 bits can represent any character. So these bits are flowing through circuits which a hardware of computer is composed of, and bits are basically signals which instruct/tell hardware that what action is to be performed.

Software contains a set of instructions which tells exactly what a hardware has to perform. Instructions are composed of bits (combination of 0s and 1s), which are signals for a hardware. Hardware understands those signals and perform accordingly. And software programs which programmers write may seem like an amalgamation of math and some English, to ordinary people. These programs are then converted into binary form, which is 0 and 1, which a computer hardware understands accurately.

Now I give you my explanation regarding why Facebook was affected by that bug. A bug is basically a flaw in a software program, which produces unintended results. It is a mistake made by a programmer while writing a program. As you know Facebook is the biggest social media web application, which is expanded over hundreds of thousands of computers, which work together to serve billions of users’ requests daily. So to instruct these thousands of computers, there are thousands of different developers who develop software programs for that purpose. So many different developers are working on many different pieces of the bigger software system, and all these pieces fit together to perform a specific task. So imagine that there are billions of billions of lines of code which is responsible for delivering such a service to billions of users. And programming is done by a programmer which is a human, and human make mistakes, but in software industry, sometimes it is common practice that programmers tend to make mistakes normally, and it’s inevitable, because of the nature of the work. E.g.,

If ( isThereEmergency == True)
{
Find_Affected_Area
Notify_Affected_Area_People
}
Else
{
No_Action
}

Let us assume that if Find_Affected_Area code has some bug then it would not produce desired results.
