Text Processors: Features and Functionality
A text processor is a software application designed for creating and editing documents. It offers features such as font formatting, subsections, and indentation. In addition to these features:
- Creation and use of templates.
- Definition of access permissions and document properties.
- Sending documents by email.
- Insertion of images and files.
- Spell checking and document comparison.
- Creation and editing of drawings and tables.
Examples include Microsoft Office Word

Designing Fair Ranking Schemes
Abstract
Items from a database are often ranked based on a combination of criteria. The weight given to each criterion in the combination can greatly affect the fairness of the produced ranking, for example, preferring men over women. A user may have the flexibility to choose combinations that weigh these criteria differently, within limits. In this paper, we develop a system that helps users choose criterion weights that lead to greater fairness.

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) Concepts Explained
What is Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)?
Acronym: Object-Oriented Programming, such as JAVA-based programming, is not structured; it addresses natural problems.
Objects: The Building Blocks of OOP
Objects are the building blocks of OOP. They are real-world representations, for example, a pencil. An object has two characteristics: state and behavior:
- State: Parameters that define and differentiate it from other objects of the same type.
- Behavior: Actions performed by objects.
- The parameters or variables
JDBC Driver Types and Database Connection with Java
JDBC Driver Types
There are four different types of JDBC drivers defined by the JDBC specification from Sun.
- Type 1: JDBC-ODBC Bridge Drivers. These drivers use a bridge or gateway, such as JDBC-ODBC. This is often not the best solution because it may require installing specific software on the client and can be slow.
- Type 2: Native-API Drivers. This type of driver uses a native API. The driver contains Java code that makes calls to native methods (often C or C++) of the database. Sometimes, client
