Program Plan Intro
Sequencers:
- Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) sequencer performs ON or OFF output patterns using sequencer instructions.
- The sequencer output instruction is used for controlling the output devices.
- PLC sequencer instructions are used for controlling machines which provides a stepped sequence of repeatable operations.
- It simplifies the ladder program by allowing the user to use a single or pair of instructions for performing complex operations.
- Various sequencer instructions can be programmed based on the PLC manufacturer.
Drum switch:
- Drum switch is also known as sequencer switch.
- The drum switch includes a series of normally open contact blocks which are operated by pegs situated on a motor-driven drum.
Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution
Operation of a drum switch:
The operation of a drum switch is described as given below.
- In a drum sequencer, the pegs are situated at specific locations around the circumference of the drum for operating the contact blocks.
- When the drum starts rotating, no pegs will remain open and all the contacts that are arranged in a line with the pegs will remain closed.
- Logic 1 or ON is used to indicate the presence of a peg and logic 0 or OFF is used to indicate the absence of a peg.
The
- The ON/OFF operation of 16 discrete outputs is controlled by the drum cylinder.
- The data table given below is used to illustrate the logic state for the first four steps of the drum cylinder.
1 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 |
0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
Here, each location where a peg is present is represented by 1 (ON) and the locations where there are no pegs are represented by 0 (OFF).

SQL Injection on UPDATE Statement for educational purpose only
Based on the information below how do i update this code in order to update the emplyees field, eg admin nickname, email,address, phone number etc?
' ; UPDATE users SET NickName='Hacked' WHERE role='admin' --
If a SQL injection vulnerability happens to an UPDATE statement, the damage will be more severe, because attackers can use the vulnerability to modify databases. In our Employee Management application, there is an Edit Profile page (Figure 2) that allows employees to update their profile information, including nickname, email, address, phone number, and password. To go to this page, employees need to log in first.
When employees update their information through the Edit Profile page, the following SQL UPDATE query will be executed. The PHP code implemented in unsafe edit backend.php file is used to update employee’s profile information. The PHP file is located in the /var/www/SQLInjection directory.

- Please answers two questions of JAVA OOP.arrow_forward4. Suppose we have a perfect binary tree with height h 0 representing a heap, meaning it = has n 2+1 1 keys indexed from 1 to 2+1 1. When we run convertomaxheap we run maxheapify in reverse order on every key with children. Let's examine the worst-case - In the worst-case every single key gets swapped all the way to the leaf level. (a) For each level in the tree there are a certain number of nodes and each of those nodes [10 pts] requires a certain number of swaps. Fill in the appropriate values/expressions in the table: Level Number of Keys Number of Swaps per Key 0 2 .. (b) Write down a sum for the total number of swaps required. This should involve h, not n.

Here are some notes to help you work the problem: ⚫ strcpy(char *dst, char *src) copies the string at address src (including the terminating '\0' character) to address dst. It does not check the size of the destination buffer. • You will need to know the hex values of the following characters:arrow_forward
- 1234 3. Which line prevents compiler optimization? Circle one: 1234 Suggested solution: Store strlen(str) in a variable before the if statement. ⚫ Remove the if statement. Replace index 0 && index < strlen(str)) { 5 } } = str [index] = val;arrow_forwardCharacter Hex value | Character Hex value Character Hex value 'A' 0x41 'J' Ox4a 'S' 0x53 'B' 0x42 'K' 0x4b "T" 0x54 0x43 'L' Ox4c 'U' 0x55 0x44 'M' 0x4d 'V' 0x56 0x45 'N' Ox4e 'W' 0x57 0x46 '0' Ox4f 'X' 0x58 0x47 'P' 0x50 'Y' 0x59 0x48 'Q' 0x51 'Z' Ox5a 'T' 0x49 'R' 0x52 '\0' 0x00 Now consider what happens on a Linux/x86 machine when callfoo calls foo with the input string "ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA". A. On the left draw the state of the stack just before the execution of the instruction at address Ox40053a; make sure to show the frames for callfoo and foo and the exact return address, in Hex at the bottom of the callfoo frame. Then, on the right, draw the state of the stack just after the instruction got executed; make sure to show where the string "ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA" is placed and what part, if any, of the above return address has been overwritten. B. Immediately after the ret instruction at address 0x400543 executes, what is the value of the program counter register %rip?…arrow_forward1 typedef struct node* { 2 struct node* next; 3 char* key; 4 char* val; 5} node_t; 6 7 char* find_node (node_t* node, char* key_to_find) { while(strcmp (node->key, key_to_find ) != 0 ) { node = node->next; 8 9 10 } 11 return node->val; 12 }arrow_forward
