Name resolution (semantics and text extraction)

Hey there, kiddo! Do you know how sometimes we type in a website name or a search term in the internet and the computer magically takes us to what we were looking for? That's because of name resolution! Let me explain it in a simpler way for you.

Name resolution means finding out the correct computer address for a website when we type in its name, just like finding the address of your friend's house when you want to visit them. The computer uses the Domain Name System (DNS) to convert the website name into an IP address, which is a unique numerical identifier for each computer connected to the internet.

Now, let's talk about semantics and text extraction. Have you ever played with magnetic letters on a refrigerator and made different words out of them? Text extraction is sort of like that! Computers can "read" text in a similar way and find out what words mean in different contexts.

For example, let's say you were searching for a recipe for chocolate cake. When you type this in, the computer will use text extraction to read your search terms and figure out that you are looking for a recipe related to chocolate cake. This process involves understanding the meaning of the words you used and finding related keywords and phrases that match your search query.

In other words, name resolution helps us find the right website, and semantics and text extraction help us find the right information within that website. Cool, right?
