a) LAN : (local area network) is a group of computers and network devices connected together, usually within the same
building. By definition, the connections must be high speed and relatively inexpensive (e.g., token ring or Ethernet).
WAN : (wide area network), is not restricted to a geographical location, although it might be confined within the bounds
of a state or country. A WAN connects several LANs, and may be limited to an enterprise (a corporation or an organization) or accessible to the public. The technology is high speed and relatively expensive.
The Internet is an example of a worldwide public WAN.
The classroom network is example of local area network LAN.

The Marketing departments of companies these days are involved in the development of corporate WEB Sites because of the tremendous reach that a WEB Site can have in the marketplace. As such, Bob Jones’ department should be consulted and have representation in the WEB Site development process. The image projected by the quality of the WEB Site will be a critical factor to its success.

Local area networks can, of course, only operate locally in small areas such as office buildings or even just one floor of a building. They're not regulated by the FCC, are cheaper than WANs, and also much easier to set up. Their speed is also greater on the whole.
