Computing

A mysterious section in technology referred to as a dark cloud,
computing: how does a computers really work; computers are categorized by several measures , mainly the similarity between computers remains the known Hardware, Software of any computer; more confusing portion of the computer system is the synchronization of the software with the hardware of the computer system.
The Computer Hardware: This is defined as the physical and hand able part of a computer , in more clear terms examples such as the keyboard, mouse, system unit and so on , the integration of this part with the software(s) is what makes the computer worth using. 
The Computer Software: Software(s) are made up of instruction to give the hardware directions on how to perform any task, a bunch of definitions have been made to explain what the hardware really is; in better term the software is a language in which the computer can understand ( it should be noted: its not all programming languages a computer can understand , computers can only understand a language called machine language also known as binary digits , 0's and 1's)  the combination and or alteration of this binary digits is what makes an instruction set.

What are low level languages ?
 Machine languages 
 Assembly language 

till date it still baffles me what the early programmers would have really gone through working with machine codes , 
 lets try explain what it really would mean to to code in machine language 
The concept of the Bit;
What is a bit ? 
Ans-  a bit is an acronym for binary digit - as said above 0's and 1's

What is a Nibble? 
Ans-  a nibble is group of 4 bits such as 0111 or 0010 etc 

What is a byte ? 
Ans- a byte is a group of 8 bits such as 01011001 or 10111001 etc. 

What is a Word? 
Ans- a word in computing  is a group of 16 bits such as 0101100110111001 or 1000111001001010 etc.

What is a double word?
Ans- a byte is a group of 32 bits 

What is a quad word ? 
Ans-  a byte is a group of 64 bits

Here is the question you might have in your mind if you've been following...  how possible will the combination of this digits cause an action to be initiated.?

basically 1's and 0's simply means on and off , the combination of a 3 offs and 1 on would mean an instruction in a nibble set; 

This brings us to the assembly language a more interesting approach to programming to humans ; with the assembly language the concept of the use of human relative language called mnemonic was adopted, its said to be the the fastest executable language next to machine languages.

Your Inverter May Become Useless soon

Inverters are rapidly being used in homes and offices, but in all we have too many improper installers of this inverters, as many are there for just the money, it’s called “hit and run”.  Here I will give intelligent detail on detecting your inverter was properly installed: First thing first   This is key, by environment it means where your inverter was installed, some persons for the fear of fire and less educated by the so called engineer, install their inverter in the generators room or by it. Some even have their inverters installed in the house but with very little space for air,  your inverter needs proper care, take it like a pet and not a slave; then your battery becomes happier, and lasts long both in duration and life span Installing properly with right tools : Inverters come with cables and cable locks for batteries and the inverter, otherwise called connectors, this connectors maybe copper-like materials, and are connected behind the i...

Should i get an Inverter?

Getting an Inverter is fast becoming inevitable in Nigeria its importance as become ever growing, most locality in Nigeria have atleast 6 hours Power on daily bases which is makes it a good idea to have more 5-8 hours backup time could certainly be more than that range depending on how an individual makes use of the inverter, with no noise and effective power supplies, alot of persons are discouraged because of the one time cost of inverters and its effectiveness which could be due to past experiences with inverters that failed which in most cases is the fault in the education of the customer on the safe usage of the equipment, now this brings us to the mistakes of orientation from installers probably due to securing a customer for their gain which is not a wise decision to make. Alot of persons might not be told of the danger of using pressing iron on lower or minimum home inverters which will certainly drain the battery to fast that it can weaken or damage the battery cells, an...

Jekitech will be at Meiran, Lagos Nigeria, Today!

A third party Customer called in yesterday in the morning, He uses Tubular Batteries ( Inverter wet cell batteries), and its a Topping Issue, He noted the battery liquid will as gone down and he either needs a refill or a fresh filling in respect to the issue on ground. There are several mistakes Customers and Vendors make with Tubular batteries: Too Late Refill of Batteries  Addition of unspecified liquid Too much liquid addition  liquid spill during addition (refill) No routine check before taking a refill decision Buying Refill Liquid from wrong vendors etc. In an approach to the request of the this Jekitech Third Party Customer, its essential that Jekitech goes and inspect before taking proper action other than just get a report from a customer and go fix without guidance.  We are sure to you on the Proceedings , so lookout for our next post. Keep Your Inverter Clean! For Free Consultation and sales Enquiry call 08031138665 K...
