computer?!?
how can u get rid of unwanted files on ur computer....like old movies u deleted that are still on the computer or books that were digital?!
for windows: if you've already deleted them they might still be in the recycle bin. empty your recycle bin. or you can go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup to clear temporary files and compress old files. after disk cleanup choose Disk Defragment to further clean your system. this will take a while so close any running programs.
Can connecting anothercomputer to my networkinfluence the connections ofthe other computers?
I had two computers both connected to a wireless router. Yesterday I connected a third computer to the network and, although the connection goes through for this new computer, one of the original computers now says "Limited or no connectivity" and cannot connect to the Internet. Is it possible that the new computer is using up too much bandwidth and is therefore preventing the other computer from accessing the Internet?
Reboot the router...
What makes a computer choosingrandom numbers, start at 3, or5, or 3027846?
A computer starts somewhere. It starts with a bios and a CPU and a motherboard ect... When we code that computer to pump out a random number, what makes it pick the number it picks? Exactly the same computer sits beside it's identical and they both pick different 1st random numbers. Is the Bios fed a seed during construction and every new bios gets a different seed? Those of us that have worked with random numbers know what a seed is. So why does my computer give a number between 100 and 1000 as 756, but yours gives, 537? Is that not a form of intelligence beyond that of artificial? We gave the computer the ability to give random numbers, but what makes it give or pick that random number when in reality it has no 'will' to decide. Why 3 and not 4, when it favours nothing? Even with a seed, what makes it choose 5 with this seed but 7 with that seed? Where in the ruels of life does it say that, with this seed equaling 756395837 in that computer, 1st random # will be this?
Anything that needs a seed is NOT a random number generator! It is a pseudo-random number generator that will deliver a totally repeatable and predictable sequence of numbers that appear to be random, by using some mathematical function. Some computer languages and some math packages have an option for selecting a seed by using a number of variable values that can be read from the hardware. For example, the current time, date, and local Ethernet MAC address can be used to create the seed. If you repeat the operation later, the seed would be different because of the time difference. If you ran the same generator at exactly the same time on two such computers, the seeds would be different because of the different MAC addresses. If you need a truly random sequence of numbers then you can use a hardware interface to a random physical event. Some devices that have been used measure the time between detections of cosmic rays or the random decay of a radioactive sample. Another is based on the random noise created by a diode junction.
