Work Step by Step

Based on the mnemonic Internet address "batman.batcave.metropolis.gov," we can conjecture that the domain structure follows a hierarchical system. Each part of the address, separated by periods, likely represents a different level within the domain hierarchy. - "gov" indicates that it is a governmental entity. - "metropolis" could be a subdomain under the government domain, possibly representing a city or a region. - "batcave" might be another subdomain under "metropolis," possibly representing a department or division within the city or region. - "batman" could be a further subdivision under "batcave," perhaps representing a specific machine or service within that department or division. Overall, this mnemonic suggests a structured and hierarchical organization within the domain, with each part serving a specific purpose or representing a specific entity within the larger structure.
