Why is it important for people who want jobs in the IT industry to have good
communication skills?
As an IT professional, you will often be required to translate highly technical concepts
into information that a non-technical audience can readily understand. This task will
test your communication skills, which are very important. Your ability to enable a nontechnical audience to understand complex concepts will apply particularly if you find
yourself working with end users or management personnel, many of whom have only a
basic knowledge of computers and computer networks.

Describe the differences between instant messaging and text messaging.
Instant messaging (IM) is a computer-based method of communication in which users
can type and view messages sent to one or more recipients, and view the responses
immediately. Instant messages can be sent only to contacts who are currently online
(that is, signed in to an instant messaging service). Text messaging is a method of
person-to-person communication in which users type short text messages from mobile
devices, such as smartphones.

What is the main difference between Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) and Internet
Protocol version 6 (IPv6)?
Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) supports the "dotted quad" IP address format, which
uses 32-bit addresses consisting of a series of numbers divided into four segments,
separated by periods (dots). IPv4 supports approximately 4.3 billion IP addresses.
IPv6 provides a practically unlimited number of IP addresses because it uses a 128-bit
address. As a result, it provides 340 undecillion addresses. Whereas 4 billion
addresses would be 4 multiplied by 109, 340 undecillion addresses would be 340
multiplied by 1036, which allows for a significantly larger address pool.
