🌐 What is a Chrome Extension?

A Chrome Extension is a small software program that adds extra features to your browser.

👉 Think like:

Ad blocker → blocks ads
Grammarly → checks grammar
Dark mode → changes website theme

So basically, it enhances Chrome functionality without installing full software.

🧠 How Chrome Extensions Work (Basic Logic)

Built using HTML, CSS, JavaScript
Run inside Chrome browser
Can interact with:
- Web pages
- Browser tabs
- User actions (click, typing)

👉 Example:
When you install an ad blocker → it scans webpage → removes ads automatically

📥 Method 1: Install from Chrome Web Store (Step-by-Step)

This is the easiest and safest method.

🔹 Step 1: Open Chrome

Open your browser (Google Chrome)

🔹 Step 2: Open Chrome Web Store

Search on Google:
👉 Chrome Web Store
or open: https://chrome.google.com/webstore

🔹 Step 3: Search Extension

Use search bar (top-left)
Example:
- “AdBlock”
- “Grammarly”
- “Video Downloader”

🔹 Step 4: Select Extension

Click on extension name
You will see:

How we can get higher marks in semester exam

Here we talk about how to get higher marks in exams or test paper.

Now we have to remember that the test and exams are follow the pattern but not at all time sometime it's decided by your professors or teacher.

There are some of the rules which we follow to get better marks

1. Questions we have to read carefully and understand what the question were asked are what the really mean of it

In exams teacher wants to know whats your thought about the topic or what's the better answer you give for that question. So always stay alert. The first question decide that you read on the time, that all question you were solved or not.

I always try to give the answer if we couldn't known the answer at that time. Always think what the question are asking and what the answer is given by us.

2. The second one is confidence is you lose your confidence you will not get the marks that you were get.

In exams, our confidence level decide what we write for the given questions

So don't lose your confidence it remains works on the knowledge you have.

3. Don't write much content only write according to the given marks

Like if the question are only for 3 marks then you should be able to write the 8 to 10 lines for that question

AI AND ROBOTICS (what is ai)

Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence is composed of two words Artificial and Intelligence, where Artificial

defines "man-made," and intelligence defines "thinking power", hence AI means "a

man-made thinking power."

So, AI can be defined as, "It is a branch of computer science by which intelligent machines

can be created.

which can behave like a human, think like humans, and able to make decisions. Artificial

Intelligence (AI) is the branch of computer science that aims to create machines that can

think, learn, and act like humans.

“AI is the science and engineering of making intelligent machines, especially intelligent

computer programs.”

John McCarthy (Father of AI)

“Artificial Intelligence is the study of how to make computers do things which, at the

moment, people do better.”

Elaine Rich

“AI is the study of agents that receive percepts from the environment and perform

actions.”….. Russell and Norvig (in their book Artificial Intelligence: A Modern Approach)

“Artificial Intelligence leverages computers and machines to mimic the problem-solving and

decision-making capabilities of the human mind.” IBM
