Why Scripting?

scripting is done if there is any repetitive task(such as changing a pwd for a user).You may think of a sqrt() function in a Math library. Because this function is written once and called whereever required. Scripting is much like the same from birds eye view. In scripting there will be much interaction with hardware, kernel services and OS routines.These are used extensively to accomplish a task which internally may involve some series of tasks.The following def will give you a clear picture abt scripting "A program containing series of commands(services/other commands/etc) arranged accordingly to accomplish a goal" is called a script

measure ur browser memory

Hey i found this new thing with my chrome browser
It has an intresting feature which helps you to look at the memory limit occupations of all the browsers installed on ur machind.
Just open the chrome browser window. On the top of the window just right click and open taskmanager.
You can see a small taskmanager window where you have to select the chrome browser window and at the bottom click on the 'stats for neds' you will see a new tab which will list the memory usage of all the currently opened browsers.......

Have a nice day:)

Intro to silverlight

Silverlight
An added piece of program for the browser(IE) that extends its functionality. Extending the functionality means user can have more real experience with the browser.Its a microsoft product - so by default it will(& should) work on IE browsers. Other browsers do support this technology.Few are Firefox and safari.
Last but not the least silverlight is a client-side technology.

what are plug-ins?

Plug-ins are software pieces that enhances the functionality of the existing software. For ex you can add plug-ins to your browser so that you can view files in a different(new) formats.
There are also plug-ins for graphic programmes.
The term plug-ins is used in conjuction with browsers mostly because browsers will keep on upgrading!!!!!

what is managed && unmanaged code?

As far as my knowledge the following statements will help you to differentiate between managed & the unmanaged code:

As the name unmanaged code implies the code is completely not in control which indirectly tells us that its a third party software. You are executing a third party software on ur machine and you dont know how it works but yet it works exhibiting its interface to the outside world.

managed code in other words are generated by ur machine - for example a simple c++ program compiled by a borland compiler will generate a file which can be run directly on the same machine. Here the compiler has generated the output(infact it created the origin) where by we can say that the output is managed code for the compiler.
If you wrap this code into an exchangable component(like a dll) and give it to someone else your code will be unmanaged code to the machine which uses your code.
Ex: - Internet Explorer is an example of unmanaged code bcoz it can run .aspx files written and compiler by the .net framework

static in java and c#

Java:
In java if you don't wanna create an instance of a class. Simply put a private constructor in that class.

C#
In C# also u can follow the same approach but the .net platform provides a simple feature called static class.Look at the following code:

static class MyClass
{
static void hello()
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello World");
}
}
This class can only contain static data.

Note: You can't find static classes in java
