Answer:

Counters are used to run the loop.

Accumulators are used to calculate and store the result.

Explanation:

In loops variables counters and accumulators are very important.The counter variable is used to increase the loop or move to the next iteration.

The accumulator variable is used to calculate and store the result of an operation in the loop.

For example:-

int i=0;

int sum=0;

while(i<7)

{

     sum=sum+i;

     i++;

}

In this while loop the counter variable is i and the accumulator variable is sum.Without the counter variable is not increased the loop will keep looping over the same value of i that is 0.

In the loop the accumulator variable sum is used to calculate the sum of integers form i=0 to 6.

Write an application that determines which, if any, of the following files are stored in the folder where you have saved the exe
Elza [17]

Answer:

Here is the JAVA application that determines which if any of the following files are stored in folder where you have saved the exercises created.

import java.nio.file.*;   // used to manipulate files and directories

import java.nio.file.attribute.*;  //used to provide access to file and file attributes

import static java.nio.file.AccessMode.*;  // provides access modes to test the accessibility of a file

import java.io.IOException;  //for exception handling

class FindSelectedFiles {

public static void main(String[] args) { //start of main function

   Path f1 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/autoexec.bat"); //creates Path object f1 using Paths.get() method and this instance contains the file name and directory list used to construct the specified path

   Path f2 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/CompareFolders.java");  //creates Path object f2 using Paths.get() method and this instance contains the file name and directory list used to construct the specified path

   Path f3 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/FileStatistics.class");   //creates Path object f3 using Paths.get() method and this instance contains the file name and directory list used to construct the specified path

   Path f4 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/Hello.doc"); //creates Path object f4 using Paths.get() method and this instance contains the file name and directory list used to construct the specified path

   int count=0; //used to count the number of files found  

try{  // used to define a code chunk to be tested for errors

 f1 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/autoexec.bat");  // Converts a path string when joined form a path string to a Path

 System.out.println(f1);  //prints the file

     /* getFileSystem method is used to return the file system that created this Path object f1 and checkAccess Verifies access and throws exception if something is wrong

 f1.getFileSystem().provider().checkAccess(f1);  

 System.out.println(f1 +" File Exists\n");  //if file exists then displays this message

 count++;  }  //adds 1 to the count of number of files found

 catch (IOException e) {  //a code chunk to be executed if error occurs in the try part

  System.out.println("File Doesn't Exist\n"); }  //if file not found displays this message

   

try{  //works same as above try block but for 2nd folder and object f2

 f2 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/CompareFolders.java");

 System.out.println(f2);

 f2.getFileSystem().provider().checkAccess(f2);

 System.out.println(f2 +" File Exists\n");

 count++;  }

 catch (IOException e) {

  System.out.println("File Doesn't Exist\n"); }

   

try{  //works same as above try block but for 3rd folder and object f3

 f3 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/FileStatistics.class");

 System.out.println(f3);

 f3.getFileSystem().provider().checkAccess(f3);

 System.out.println("File Exists\n");

 count++; }

 catch (IOException e) {

  System.out.println("File Doesn't Exist\n"); }

   

try{  //works same as above try block but for 4th folder and object f4

    f4 = Paths.get("/root/sandbox/Hello.doc");

    System.out.println(f4);

 f4.getFileSystem().provider().checkAccess(f4);

 System.out.println(f4 +" File Exists\n");

 count++; }

 catch (IOException e) {

  System.out.println("File Doesn't Exist\n"); }

   

   System.out.println(count+" of the files exist");  }  } //displays the number of files found

Explanation:

If you want to directly pass the file name as argument to Paths.get() method then you can use the following code:

   Path f1 = Paths.get("autoexec.bat");

   Path f2 = Paths.get("CompareFolders.java");

   Path f3 = Paths.get("FileStatistics.class");

   Path f4 = Paths.get("Hello.doc");

The program determines if any, of the files from autoexec.bat, CompareFolders.java, FileStatistics.class, and Hello.doc. are stored in the folder. If a file is found then the program displays the message File exists and add 1 to the count variable each time a file is found. If all the files are found then the program returns the count as 4 otherwise the program display the number of files found by displaying the computed final value of count in the output. Lets say all the files are found then the output of the above program is:

autoexec.bat                                                                                                                                                   autoexec.bat File Exists  

                                                                                                                                                      CompareFolders.java                                                                                                                                            CompareFolders.java File Exists                                                      

                                                                                                                                                         FileStatistics.class                                                                                                                                           File Exists                                                                                        

                                                                                                                                                     Hello.doc                                                                                                                                                      Hello.doc File Exists  

   

4 of the files exist

What is the common name for the growth rate function N?
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Linear.

Explanation:

The common name for the growth rate function N is linear.N growth rate is directly proportional to the input.So it grows linearly.It does not grow rapidly like other growth functions like quadratic,exponential and cubical.

Constant growth does not grow over time it stays as it is.

Hence the answer to this question is linear.
