Step 1: Check each assumption
Assumption 1: Learning computers is easy.
The statement does not imply that learning computers is easy. It only says that computer education should start early. Whether it’s easy or hard is not addressed.
Not necessarily implied → This assumption is not implicit.
Assumption 2: Computer education fetches jobs easily.
The statement talks about starting computer education in schools; it does not say anything about jobs or employment opportunities.
Not necessarily implied → This assumption is not implicit.
Step 2: Conclusion
Neither assumption 1 nor 2 is implicit.
Answer: Neither I nor II.
