The correct option is D Three dimensional
The term cyberspace is increasingly used in our information technology age. It was initially coined by Gibson in his well-known science fiction novel Neuromancer [Gibson 1984]. Cyberspace is defined as a computer-generated landscape, i.e. the virtual space of a global computer network, linking all people, computers, and sources of various information in the world through which one could navigate. Cyberspace was portrayed in Neuromancer as three dimensional virtual landscape created network of computers.
