Wildcard
In computing, a wildcard refers to a character that can be substituted for zero or more characters in a string. Wildcards are commonly used in computer programming, database SQL search queries, and when navigating through DOS or Unix directories via the command prompt.
Below are some popular uses for wildcards: -
White Paper
This term has historically been used to describe a report that states the social or political position of an organization. In recent years, however, the IT industry has adopted the term to describe articles that explain a certain technology or product. For example, a company may release a white paper to the public in order to educate consumers about one of their products. The terminology used may be somewhat technical, but the goal of a white paper is usually to describe the technology or product in terms most people can understand. That way nerds dont get to have all the fun each time a new technology is invented.

Unix
Also known as UNIX, though the letters do not stand for anything. The Unix operating system was first created in Bell Labs way back in the 1960s. It became popular in the 1970s for high-level computing, but not on the consumer level. Since a lot of Internet services were originally hosted on Unix machines, the platform gained tremendous popularity in the 1990s. It still leads the industry as the most common operating system for Web servers.
Still, Unix remains somewhat of an ambiguous operating system, as there are many different versions of it. Some examples include Ultrix, Xenix, Linux, and GNU, which, making things even more confusing, all run on a number of different hardware platforms. Most people do not ever need to use Unix, but computer geeks seem to have the need to use it as much as possible.

Typeface
A typeface is a set of characters of the same design. These characters include letters, numbers, punctuation marks, and symbols. Some popular typefaces include Arial, Helvetica, Times, and Verdana. While most computers come with a few dozen typefaces installed, there are thousands of typefaces available. Because they are vector-based (not bitmaps), typefaces can be scaled very large and still look sharp. The term typeface is often confused with font, which is a specific size and style of a typeface. For example, Verdana is a typeface, while Verdana 10 pt bold is a font. Its a small difference, but is good to know.

TTL
Stands for Time To Live. Pretty intense for a computer term, huh? It refers an aspect of the Internet Protocol. TTL is used when a ping, or a request for a response, is sent to another computer, such as a server. The TTL represents the number of hops, or servers in different locations, the request can travel to before returning a failed attempt message.

Toolbar
A toolbar is a set of icons or buttons that are part of a software programs interface or an open window. When it is part of a programs interface, the toolbar typically sits directly under the menu bar. For example, Adobe Photoshop includes a toolbar that allows you to adjust settings for each selected tool. If the paintbrush is selected, the toolbar will provide options to change the brush size, opacity, and flow. Microsoft Word has a toolbar with icons that allow you to open, save, and print documents, as well as change the font, text size, and style of the text. Like many programs, the Word toolbar can be customized by adding or deleting options. It can even be moved to different parts of the screen.
The toolbar can also reside within an open window. For example, Web browsers, such as Internet Explorer, include a toolbar in each open window. These toolbars have items such as Back and Forward buttons, a Home button, and an address field. Some browsers allow you to customize the items in toolbar by right-clicking within the toolbar and choosing Customize... or selecting Customize Toolbar from the browser preferences. Open windows on the desktop may have toolbars as well. For example, in Mac OS X, each window has Back and Forward buttons, View Options, a Get Info button, and a New Folder button. You can customize the Mac OS X window toolbars as well.
Toolbars serve as an always-available, easy-to-use interface for performing common functions. So if you havent made use of your programs toolbar options or customization features in the past, now is a good time to start! -
RE: Template
A template is a file that serves as a starting point for a new document. When you open a template, it is pre-formatted in some way. For example, you might use template in Microsoft Word that is formatted as a business letter. The template would likely have a space for your name and address in the upper left corner, an area for the recipients address a little below that on the left site, an area for the message body below that, and a spot for your signature at the bottom.
When you save a file created with a template, you are usually prompted to save a copy of the file, so that you dont save over the template. Templates can either come with a program or be created by the user. Most major programs support templates, so if you find yourself creating similar documents over and over again, it might be a good idea to save one of them as a template. Then you wont have to format your documents each time you want to make a new one. Just open the template and start from there. -
Rootkit
A rootkit is a software program designed to provide a user with administrator access to a computer without being detected. Rootkits are are considered one of the most serious types of malware since they may be used to gain unauthorized access to remote systems and perform malicious operations.
The name rootkit includes the word root, because the goal of a rootkit is to gain root access to a computer. By logging in as the root user of a system, a hacker can perform nearly any operation he or she wishes. This includes installing software and deleting files. The word kit refers to the software files that make up the rootkit. These may include utilities, scripts, libraries, and other files.
Rootkits often work by exploiting security holes in operating systems and applications. Others create a back door login to the operating system, which allows a user to bypass the standard login procedure when accessing a system. Once root access has been enabled, a rootkit may attempt to hide any traces of unauthorized access by modifying drivers or kernel modules, hiding certain files, and quitting active processes.
Fortunately, most operating systems and software programs are designed to prevent unauthorized access via rootkits or other malware. Therefore, it is difficult to use a rootkit to gain access to modern systems. However, rootkits are constantly modified and updated in order to try and breach security holes. Therefore, it is wise to install antivirus or other security software on your computer to monitor any attempts of unauthorized access to your system. -
Pseudocode
Most software programs are developed using a programming language, like C or Java. These languages have a specific syntax that must be adhered to when writing programs source code. Pseudocode, on the other hand, is not a programming language, but simply an informal way of describing a program. It does not require strict syntax, but instead serves as a general representation of a programs functions.
Since each programming language uses a unique syntax structure, understanding the code of multiple languages can be difficult. Pseudocode remedies this problem by using conventional syntax and basic english phrases that are universally understood. For example, a line of PHP code may read:if (
This could be written in pseudocode as:if i is less than 10, increment i by 1.
By describing a program in pseudocode, programmers of all types of languages can understand the function of a program.
Pseudocode is an informal language, so it is mainly used for creating an outline or a rough draft of a program. Because it is not an actual programming language, pseudocode cannot be compiled into an executable program. Therefore, pseudocode must be converted into a specific programming language if it is to become an usable application. -
Primary Memory
Primary memory is computer memory that is accessed directly by the CPU. This includes several types of memory, such as the processor cache and system ROM. However, in most cases, primary memory refers to system RAM.
RAM, or random access memory, consists of one or more memory modules that temporarily store data while a computer is running. RAM is volatile memory, meaning it is erased when the power is turned off. Therefore, each time you start up your computer, the operating system must be loaded from secondary memory (such as a hard drive) into the primary memory, or RAM. Similarly, whenever you launch an application on your computer, it is loaded into RAM.
The operating system and applications are loaded into primary memory, since RAM can be accessed much faster than storage devices. In fact, the data can be transferred between CPU and RAM more than a hundred times faster than between the CPU and the hard drive. By loading data into RAM, programs can run significantly faster and are much more responsive than if than constantly accessed data from secondary memory.
NOTE: Primary memory may be called primary storage as well. However, this term is somewhat more ambiguous since, depending on the context, primary storage may also refer to internal storage devices, such as internal hard drives.
