Applications include: Education, Entertainment, Medicine, Engineering, Industry, Creative Industry, Mathematical and scientific Industry, Commercial.
Education. In Education, multimedia is used to produce computer-based training courses (popularly called CBTs) and reference books like encyclopedia and almanacs. A CBT lets the user go through a series of presentations, text about a particular topic, and associated illustrations in various information formats. Edutainment is an informal term used to describe combining education with entertainment, especially multimedia entertainment.
Engineering. Software engineers may use multimedia in Computer Simulations for anything from entertainment to training such as military or industrial training. Multimedia for software interfaces are often done as collaboration between creative professionals and software engineers.
Entertainment and Fine Arts. In addition, multimedia is heavily used in the entertainment industry, especially to develop special effects in movies and animations. Multimedia games are a popular pastime and are software programs available either as CD-ROMs or online. Some video games also use multimedia features.
Medicine. In Medicine, doctors can get trained by looking at a virtual surgery or they can simulate how the human body is affected by diseases spread by viruses and bacteria and then develop techniques to prevent it.
Industry. In the Industrial sector, multimedia is used as a way to help present information to shareholders, superiors and coworkers. Multimedia is also helpful for providing employee training, advertising and selling products all over the world via virtually unlimited web-based technologies.
Creative industries. Creative industries use multimedia for a variety of purposes ranging from fine arts, to entertainment, to commercial art, to journalism, to media and software services provided for any of the industries listed below. An individual multimedia designer may cover the spectrum throughout their career. Request for their skills range from technical, to analytical and to creative.
Commercial. Much of the electronic old and new media utilized by commercial artists is multimedia. Exciting presentations are used to grab and keep attention in advertising. Industrial, business to business, and interoffice communications are often developed by creative services firms for advanced multimedia presentations beyond simple slide shows to sell ideas or liven-up training. Commercial multimedia developers may be hired to design for governmental services and nonprofit services applications as well.
Mathematical and Scientific Research. In Mathematical and Scientific Research, multimedia is mainly used for modeling and simulation. For example, a scientist can look at a molecular model of a particular substance and manipulate it to arrive at a new substance. Representative research can be found in journals such as the Journal of Multimedia.

num = n;
sum = 0;
for(i=1; i<=n; i++)
sum += i;

a) create a C++ function called make_sum() that returns an object of type summation. Have this function prompt the user for a number and then construct an object having this value and return it to the calling procedure.Demonstrate that the function works.
b)The function set_sum() was not defined in line within the summation class declaration. Give a reason why this might be necessary for some compilers.

Most C++ compilers supply nonstandard functions that allow cursor positioning and the like. If a compiler supplies such functions, create a function called myclreol() using C++ language a function that clears the line from the current cursor position to the end of the line. However, give this function a parameter that specifies the number of character position to clear. If the parameter is not specified, automatically clear the entire line. Otherwise, clear only the number of character positions specified by the parameter.

In the C++ standard library is the function strtol(), which has this prototype:
long strtol|(const char*start, const **end, int base);
The function cnverts the numeric string pointed to by start into a long integer. The number base of the numeric string is specified by base. Upon return, end points to the character in the string immediately following the end of the number. The long integer equivalent of the numeric string is returned. base must be in the range 2 to 38. However, most commonly, base 10 is used.
Create a function called mystrtol() that works the same as strtol() except that base is given the default argument of 10. Demonstrate that your version works correctly.
