-History
Main article: History of computer science
The early foundations of what would become computer science predate the invention of the modern digital computer. Machines for calculating fixed numerical tasks, such as the abacus, have existed since antiquity. Wilhelm Schickard built the first mechanical calculator in 1623.[6] Charles Babbage designed a difference engine in Victorian times[7] helped by Ada Lovelace.[8] Around 1900, punch-card machines[9] were introduced. However, all of these machines were constrained to perform a single task, or at best some subset of all possible tasks.

3.What is the difference between general book and reference book?

-The Book of General is the first in a series of books based on the final round in the intellectual British panel game QI, written by series-creator John Lloyd and head-researcher John Mitchinson,to help spread the QI philosophy of curiosity to the reading public.It is a trivia book, aiming to address and correct the "comprehensive and humiliating catalogue of all the misconceptions, mistakes and misunderstandings in 'common knowledge'" - it is therefore known not as a 'General Knowledge' book, but as "General Ignorance".As well as correcting these "all-too-common" mistakes, the book(s) attempt to explain how the errors have been perpetuated, and why people believe inaccurate 'facts' to be true.

-Reference book Books are usually the easiest things to reference. Just remember that the author goes first, followed by the year, title, place published and publisher. When there are two authors, use an ampersand (&) to separate the last author. The title should be underlined or typed in italics.

2.DC&LC classification

dc is a cross-platform reverse-polish desk calculator which supports arbitrary-precision arithmetic.[1] It is one of the oldest Unix utilities, predating even the invention of the C programming language; like other utilities of that vintage, it has a powerful set of features but an extremely terse syntax.[2][3] Traditionally, the more user-friendly (with its infix notation) bc calculator program was implemented on top of dc, although more modern implementations are related in the opposite fashion: dc uses bc's library for arithmetic.[4]
This article provides some examples in an attempt to give a flavour of the language; for a complete list of commands and syntax you should consult a manual page for your implementation.

Step5-Synthesis:putting it all together
>>Write about this topic by writting outline
Cat>>>Hair-The shorthair and longhair are not breeds but terms used in cat fancy to describe cats that do not belong to a particular breed.

long hair - longhaired cat is a cat fancy term used to describe a cat with medium or long fur that is not a pedigreed member of a recognized breed. Domestic longhairs come in all the standard cat colours including tabby, tortie, bi-colored, smoke etc. A non-pedigree shorthair is termed a domestic shorthaired cat.
Some longhaired cats are not able to maintain their own coat - they must be groomed for at least half an hour per day, and preferably bathed every week or two[citation needed]. The cat may not enjoy the bathing process, but if it is bathed and groomed regularly from kittenhood it will accept it as a standard part of its routine.

Short hair - A shorthaired cat is a cat fancy term used to describe a shorthaired cat that does not have a pedigree or belong to a recognized cat breed. The domestic shorthair should not be confused with the American Shorthair, which is a Cat Fanciers' Association (CFA) recognized breed.
Domestic shorthaired cats are characterised by a wide range of colouring and typically 'revert to type' after a few generations, which means they express their coats as a tabby. This can be any color or combination of colors. They also exhibit a wide range of physical characteristics and, as a result, domestic shorthaired cats in different countries tend to look different in body shape and size, as they are working from differing gene pools. DSH cats in Asia tend to have a build similar to a purebred Siamese cat or Tonkinese cat, while European and American varieties have a thicker, heavier build.

>>>Food

-compare prices

whiskas = 132 baht

Meo = 129 baht

Freskie = 121 baht
-feeding time

How often you feed your cat may depend on your schedule as well. Mornings may be hectic as you get the kids off to school and yourself off to work. Under those circumstances, feeding your cat may be easier in the evening when it's quieter and less busy. If you are running around a lot in the evening, feed your cat in the morning before everyone else is up. Find a schedule that works for you and your cat - and then keep it consistent.
In a multicat household, not all cats automatically come when called for dinner, potentially making it difficult for some to get food unless it is left out all the time. And other cats may eat too much when food is always available. "You just need to come up with a plan," says Dr. Kallfelz. You can feed them separately or in different parts of the house

>>>habit

-male = bigger, More weight, Noise, Jump higher, strength, like to go out, interest with female more than owner
-female = smaller, polite, weak, like to stay at home, interest with owner more than male cat

Cats will commonly vomit from time to time, often because they might have eaten something that upset their stomachs, or simply because they have sensitive digestive systems.

It is important you take your pet to a veterinarian in these cases. While vomit…

- foreigner's believe
Egypt had a cat goddess called Bastet to start off with. The cats really helped get rid of vermin and a pharoah once deciding he needed all the cats he could get, made cats demigods. All cats were considered property of the Pharaohs, because a human can't own a demigod, but can feed, and shelter one. As a result of all cats being not only demigods also Pharaoh property, it was a felony to kill or injure one, even by accident, the consequence sometimes resulting in death. If a house caught on fire the cats were the first to be rescued, then the humans. If a cat died in the normal course of events, the household went into special ritualistic mourning where the humans shaved off their eyebrows, chanted while beating their breasts, and demonstrating other outward signs of grief at their loss. The body of the cat was first brought to a priest to make sure the death of the cat was natural, after that was finished with the body was brought to an embalmer to be mummified!!
