Each operating system has its own advantages and disadvantages, let us discuss in general the benefits and drawbacks of operating systems.AdvantagesThe advantages of Operating system are as follows −Computing Source − OS acts as an interface between the user and the hardware. It allows users to perform different tasks like input data, process the operation, and access the output. With the help of an operating system, users can communicate with computers to perform various functions like arithmetic calculations.User-Friendly Interface − Whenever the Windows operating system came into existence with Graphical User Interface (GUI), it became user friendly. It also helps ... Read More

In the given problem, we are given an integer n we need to find Pn, i.e., the pell number in that position. Now, as we know, pell number is a part of a series given by this formula −Pn = 2*Pn-1 + Pn-2With first two starting numbers − P0 = 0 and P1 = 1Approach to find The SolutionNow we will solve this problem by two approaches: recursive and iterative.Recursive ApproachIn this formula, we will recursively apply the formula of Pell Number and do n iterations.Example#include using namespace std; int pell(int n) {    if(n

Discuss a problem based on expanding the matrix. Expanding matrix is a matrix whose size continuously increases by some factor.Here we have a matrix of characters whose size is expanding by a factor of 2, i.e., if the original size of the matrix is N * N, then the size of the expanded matrix becomes 2N * 2N. We are given a sequence of characters present at ( i, j ), and we need to return the sequence of characters present at (i, (j - N - 1)%N).Let’s understand by visualizing some initial expanded matrix, Given Matrix -> [ a, ...
