what is hardware ? Name the four functional hardware of a computer system Define each of them with the help of a diagram

3. bob is arguing that if you use output feedback (ofb) mode twice in a row to encrypt a long message, m, using the same key each time, it will be more secure. explain why bob is wrong, no matter what encryption algorithm he is using for block encryption (15 points).

Usually, when we sniff packets, we are only interested certain types of packets. we can do that by setting filters in sniffing. scapy’s filter use the bpf (berkeley packet filter) syntax; you can find the bpf manual from the internet. set the following filters and demonstrate your sniffer program again (each filter should be set separately): (a) capture only the icmp packet. (b) capture any tcp packet that comes from a particular ip and with a destination port number 23. (c) capture packets comes from or to go to a particular subnet. you can pick any subnet, such as 128.230.0.0/16; you should not pick the subnet that your vm is attached to.

Write a program that displays the following menu: geometry calculator 1. calculate the area of a circle 2. calculate the area of a rectangle 3. calculate the area of a triangle 4. quit enter your choice (1-4): if the user enters 1, the program should ask for the radius of the circle and then display its area. use the following formula: area = ď€(the square of r) use 3.14159 for ď€ and the radius of the circle for r. if the user enters 2, the program should ask for the length and width of the rectangle and then display the rectangle’s area. use the following formula: area = length * width if the user enters 3, the program should ask for the length of the triangle’s base and its height, and then display its area. use the following formula: area = base * height * .5 if the user enters 4, the program should end. input validation: display an error message if the user enters a number outside the range of 1 through 4 when selecting an item from the menu. do not accept negative values for the circle’s radius, the rectangle’s length or width, or the triangle’s base or height. note: if the user enters an improper menu choice (1-4), the program prints "the valid choices are 1 through 4. run the program again and select one of those." if the user enters a negative radius, the program prints "the radius can not be less than zero." if the user enters a negative value for height or base, the program prints "only enter positive values for base and height."
