Cooking apple

A cooking apple is an apple that is used generally for cooking rather than eating fresh. Cooking apples are bigger, and can be not as much of sweet and more sour than eating varieties. Numbers of varieties have a solid flesh that doesn't smash down too much when cooked. Only the British grow a large range of apples mainly for cooking. Some apples are double purpose, sometimes becoming sweeter and softer under storage.
Cultivars can be separated into apples which are cooked full in the oven and become soft and fluffy and those which keep hold of their shape. These apples are sometimes sweet-smelling. A baked apple is one that has been parched in an oven until it has turn out to be soft. The core is normally removed and time and again stuffed with fruits, brown sugar, raisins, or cinnamon.

Multimedia

Multimedia is media that uses multiple forms of information content and information processing to inform or amuse the audience. Multimedia referred to the use of electronic media to store and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is similar to traditional mixed media in fine art, but with a broader scope. The term rich media is identical for interactive multimedia. Multimedia means that computer info can be represented through audio, graphics, image, video and animation in addition to traditional media (text and graphics). Hypermedia can be considered one particular multimedia application.

Multimedia may be generally divided into linear and non-linear categories. Linear dynamic content progresses without any navigation control for the observer such as a cinema presentation. Non-linear content offers user interactivity to control progress as used with a computer game or used in self-paced computer based training. Non-linear content is also known as hypermedia content.

Multimedia presentations can be existing or recorded. A recorded presentation may allocate interactivity via a navigation system. A live multimedia presentation may allow interactivity via interaction with the presenter or performer.
