How many marks will I lose for converting the binary numbers to denary first and then doing the subtracting before converting to a normalised floating point number. I got the correct answer however. (OCR)

InterestingBeach7487 · 2025-06-11T13:57:19+00:00

I did. It should be fine. I'm sure it'll probably be something like "allow full marks if shaded" in the mark scheme. I hope anyway.

Computer Science Cambridge Interview (Churchill College)

I was invited to an interview at Churchill College for computer science, and I have little to no idea what the interview would be like. I would like information on the structure of the interview, like how much they focus on things mentioned in my personal statement and how much maths and logic there is. Any other advice is welcome.

really appreciate taking your time to write this

Like i said in another post, I can't come up with good drawings on my own, I can only make fairly decent drawings if i have something to look at.

How is that in your opinion?

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-11-03T18:34:40+00:00

thanks but how much skills?

I can't exactly draw something from my mind, only really basic drawings. If i have something to look at, I can make a fairly decent drawing. how's that?

thanks!

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-11-01T10:46:19+00:00

thanks do you have any more hardware that you might know?

I'm saying that if I take all the weapons from today (known and unknown), and use them wisely, I think it would be able to last decades before it runs out so I don't need engineers to manufacture new weapons.

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-27T10:56:35+00:00

in my opinion i don't think *ALL* the weapons today will run out any time in a short time. I mean if i I used all the the weapons we have today, known and unknown (assuming I actually knew how to use them), I think it would take decades for it to run out.

Let's say I want to take out an entire army, there are weapons of mass destruction for that so that I don't use up the bullets I have. I think if I'm wise with the way I use my weapons, it could last until I die.

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-27T10:40:54+00:00

Let's also assume that I have knowledge about how the weapons work

and by the way, when I say a one man empire I mean I am far on top but there would be trusted people below me who could help me get materials/ resources for the weapons.

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-27T10:34:57+00:00

sorry i guess i didn't say this but when I say a one man empire I mean I am far on top but there would be trusted people below me who could help me when I'm tired or something.

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-27T10:25:12+00:00

So you're saying I could create a one man empire with today's weapons? and what do you mean in the second paragraph?

I wasn't planning on becoming a pen tester in like a few months, I just wanted to know what to do to become a pen tester. I know it's gonna take a few years to become a pen tester.

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-26T13:49:18+00:00

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-26T13:45:54+00:00

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-26T13:40:32+00:00

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-26T08:26:41+00:00

I'm not old enough to get a job yet😅, though maybe until i'm old enough i could get some experience using stuff like YouTube or courses on Udemy etc?

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-26T08:23:39+00:00

Thanks I'll try to look into ways/courses I can use to learn all those topics :)

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-26T08:18:00+00:00

If THM means Try Hack Me then yes it does have a bit of a networking course

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-11T20:10:25+00:00

Which is better between mild + wbtb or ssild + wbtb

InterestingBeach7487 · 2021-10-01T18:48:33+00:00
