SNOBOL is a high-level computer programming language used especially in manipulating textual data. It is mainly used for string operations and was developed between 1962 and 1967.

DNA fingerprinting is used to identify the parents, thieves and rapists.

The distance around a circle is called as Circumference. And that in the case of square or rectangle it is called as Perimeter.

Autocorrect was originally designed to replace Misspelled words. Its purpose is as part of the spell checker to correct common spelling or typing errors, saving time for the user. It is commonly found in word processors and text editing interfaces for smartphones, computers, etc.

Satellites orbit the earth at a speed of 28,000 kmph.

Satellites that are further away actually travel slower. The International Space Station has a Low Earth Orbit, about 400 kilometers (250 miles) above the earth's surface. Objects orbiting at that altitude travel about 28,000 kilometers per hour (17,500 miles per hour).

A Contact force is a force applied to a body by another body that is in contact with it. Contact force acts on a point of direct contact between the two objects. This force can either be continuous as a continuous force or can be momentary in the form of an impulse. Contact force is governed by Newton’s Laws.

Examples :: Contact force is responsible for most of the interactions we experience in the daily life.

1. Writing your name with a pen, pushing a car up a hill, lifting an object, etc...

2. Kicking a ball, hammering a nail, etc...

are some of the everyday examples where contact forces are at work.

In the first case, the force is continuously applied by the person on the car or pen or an object while in the second case the force is delivered in a short impulse.

Contact forces are often decomposed into orthogonal components

one perpendicular to the surface in contact called the normal force, and

one parallel to the surface in contact, called the friction force.

The antagonist is the negative or opposing force in a story.

It could be a human enemy, or it could be non-human, like an animal or something less tangible, like fear.

The antagonist plays an important role in story development.

An Android Intent is an abstract description of an operation to be performed. It can be used with startActivity to launch an Activity, broadcastIntent to send it to any interested BroadcastReceiver components, and startService(Intent) or bindService(Intent, ServiceConnection, int) to communicate with a background Service.The intent itself, an Intent object, is a passive data structure holding an abstract description of an operation to be performed.
Android provides many ways of storing data of an application. One of this way is called Shared Preferences. Shared Preferences allow you to save and retrieve data in the form of key,value pair.

In order to use shared preferences, you have to call a method getSharedPreferences() that returns a SharedPreference instance pointing to the file that contains the values of preferences.
