and are it remained constant within a given area. The last 7 digits represents the number, and it cannot
begin with 0. how many different telephone numbers are possible with a given area code.
Ans:
Given that the first two digits of the 9-digit telephone number represent a constant area code, we only need
to consider the remaining 7 digits
 The first digit of the 7-digit number cannot be 0, so there are 9 possible choices (1-9).
 The remaining 6 digits can each be any digit from 0-9, giving 10 possible choices for each.

Now, to calculate the total number of possible telephone numbers:

 The first digit has 9 possibilities.


 Each of the next 6 digits has 10 possibilities.

Thus, the total number of possible telephone numbers is: 9 x 106


=9 x 1000000 =9000000

So, there are 9,000,000 different possible telephone numbers with a given area code.

Q.5: Explain the role of <body> tag-pair in a document.


Ans: The tag specifies the document's body.

18 | P a g e Developed By Miss Sidrah Umer


 It comes after the <head> tag, which holds metadata.
 Everything inside the <body> tag is displayed on the webpage.
 It defines the main structure of the webpage that users interact with.
 The <body> tag in an HTML document contains all the document's content visible
to users, such as text, images, and links., including headings, paragraphs, graphics,
hyperlinks, tables, and lists. An HTML page can only have one element.

Q.6: How the event based code is used in JavaScript?


Ans: Event: In programming anything that can be sensed or triggers some task to be done is called event.
 Event-based programming in JavaScript focuses on responding to user interactions or system
events such as clicks, keypresses, page loads, and so on.
How it's used:
1. Event Handlers (Event Listener): A function (event handler) is executed when the event occurs.
The event listener listens for the event and reacts accordingly.
 JavaScript lets you connect event handlers to HTML elements.
 Typically, this is accomplished by the use of characteristics such as onclick, onmouseover,
2. Event Object: When the event occurs, an event object is created, which contains details about the
event (such as which element triggered it, the type of event, etc.).

Q.7: Infer about the External CSS? Where are External CSS generally used?
Ans: External CSS is CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) that are stored in external files and linked to HTML texts.
 External CSS refers to a stylesheet that is saved in a separate file and linked to an HTML document.
 It is typically placed inside the <head> section of the HTML document
 This allows the CSS to be reused across multiple pages, helping to maintain a consistent look and feel
throughout a website.
 These files usually have a.css extension. i.e mystylest.css
 External CSS is a fundamental notion in web development that is commonly used to style web pages.
 For example <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="mystyles.css">

Q2.Write code to differentiate between different types of headings in HTML
Ans.<html> Difference :
<head> <title>Sample HTML Document</title> There are six heading tags.
</head>  <h1> <h1> is the largest heading
<body>
<h1>This Heading of Size h1</h1>
 <h6> <h6> the smallest heading.
<h2> This Heading of Size h2</h2>  <h1> has the largest font size and<h2> is slightly
<h3> This Heading of Size h3</h3> smaller than <h1>, and so on, down to <h6>
<h4> This Heading of Size h4</h4> which has the smallest font size by default.
<h5> This Heading of Size h6</h5>  All heading tags are bold by default (though this
<h6> This Heading of Size h5</h6> can be modified with CSS).
</body>
</html>
Q3.Elaborate steps and provide code to load a background image in a webpage.
Ans. Steps to Add a Background Image:
19 | P a g e Developed By Miss Sidrah Umer
 Make sure you have the image you want to use for the background in an accessible location or you can
either use an image hosted online (via a URL).
 Let Our image name in image.jpg
 Using Body Tag element
 Write this in your code in body tag
<body background=”image.jpg”>
Q4. With the help of sample code, highlight different methods to incorporate CSS code in a HTML webpage.
Ans. There are three ways/methods to incorporate CSS code on HTML page.
1. Inline CSS
Any CSS attribute that we want to incorporate can be added using a HTML tag (like the ones, we have
covered in the last section) and incorporated in the body section.
Example Code
1. <p style="color:red; font-size:40px;
2. font-style:italic; text-align:center;">
3. My Teaching Academy
4. </p>
2. Embedded (Internal)CSS
Instead of assigning styles for every heading and other component at the time of its first occurrence in the
code, a better approach is to outline all the styles in the header under the tag-pair of 'style' as shown in fig-13. This
way, all the presentation related CSS code is separated and do not indulge with the already written HTML code.
Additionally, change in one line in the CSS section will be reflected throughout the respective components.
Example Code
1. <head>
2. <title>Main Page</title>
3. <center>
4. <img src="mat-logo.jpg" alt="matlogo.jpg">
5. </center>
6. <style>
7. <body color olive: }
8. h2 { color: red; font-size:30px; font-style: italic; text-align: center; }
9. </style>
10. </head>
3. External CSS
Alternatively, a file with extension'.css' can be made and all relevant CSS code according to your schema can be
present there. Once, the contents of HTML are finalized, jus attach the CSS file in the head portion of HTML by
passing the link. External CSS are used with large projects, like in commercial purposes.
<link rel="mystylesheet" href="my_own_SS.css" />
(You can also See answer from Page 99-100 Topic: Cascading Style Sheet(CSS))

Q5.Sketch steps and provide code to apply border and color to a table in a webpage.
Ans. Adding Border and color to a table
 To add border and color to table we initially need <style>
to state the 'style' tag-pair just before the start of table, th, td {
table and later inside the block, we need to set border: 1px solid black;
Border and background color of the table background-color: aqua;
 In this example we are defining border for table }
1px solid black and background color in aqua </style>
Q6.Discuss the functionality JavaScript can provide in a webpage with the help of a suitable example code.
Ans. Adding Functionality JavaScript

work. However, a database is an organized collection of data stored in multiple datasets or tables.

26 | P a g e Developed By Miss Sidrah Umer


Q.7 Argue about the trends, outliers, and distribution of values in a data set? Describe.
Ans. Trends:
1. Trends
 Trends show the general direction of data over time or categories, helping predict future
patterns.
 Trends in a dataset refer to the overall direction in which data points move over time or across a
different dimension.
 Identifying trends is critical for understanding underlying patterns and making sound
judgments. Outliers:
2. Outliers:
 Outliers are unusual values that differ significantly from the rest, which can indicate errors or
special cases and may skew analysis.
 Outliers are data points that are notably different from the remainder of the dataset These can
occur as a result of measurement errors, experimental variability.
2. Distribution the values
 Distribution reveals how data is spread across values, helping determine the right analysis
methods and whether the data follows a common pattern like a normal distribution or is
skewed.
 Understanding these aspects is essential for making accurate insights and decisions.
 The distribution of values in a dataset describes how the data is scattered or dispersed among
various values intervals.

Q.8 Why are summary statistics needed!
Ans. The summary statistics provide a quick overview of characteristics of data. It leads towards a better
understanding of data cleaning, data preprocessing, feature selection and data visualization.
Note: (You can also learn answer from Page 133 Topic: Summary Statistics)

Q.9 Express big data in your own words Explain three V's of big data with reference
to email data. (Hint.: An email box that contains hundreds of emails)
Ans. Big data is defined as extraordinarily massive, voluminous and complicated datasets that are difficult to
manage, process, and analyze using conventional data processing approaches. These datasets often have three
key features, volume, velocity, and variety. also known as the three V's of big data:
Three V's of big data with reference to email data
There are three Vs of big data are:
Volume
It refers to the amount of data. Big data deals with huge volumes of low-density unstructured data. The
size/ volume of data may vary from system to system.
Velocity
It refers to the speed of data. Velocity is the fast rate at which data is received. Normally, the highest
velocity of data streams directly into memory rather than being written to disk.
Variety
It refers to the various formats and types of data that are available. Traditional data types were
structured and fit neatly in a relational database.
