$\fbox{\\\begin{minispace} \bf Traffic Class\\\end{minispace}}$ is known as the priority field of the IPv6 header field.

Further explanation:

The IPv6 is the recent used exchange internet protocol. It is the streamlines variant of IPv4 and removes the extra fields for better communication of network traffic.

Generally, the size of IPv6 header is 40 bytes. The various fields of IPv6 are as demonstrated below:

Upper Layer Protocol Data Unit: It contains the header of upper layer protocol and its payload. Upper layer protocol data unit is 65,535 bytes. If the length of payload is in excess of 65535 bytes, at that point payload is sent by Hop-by-Hop protocol header.

Extension headers: There may be any number of extensions headers in the IPv6 header and size is also variable. Each extension header denotes the next extension header. The last extension header represents the upper layer protocol data unit. The size of IPv6 extension headers has no limit.

The fields in the IPv6 are as below:

Version: The version of IP is 4 bits and put to 6 bits.

Traffic Class: Traffic class is known as priority field of the IPv6 header. The size of traffic field is 8 bits. It has the same functionality compare to IPv4 type service field. The default flow label is 0.

Flow Label: Flow label represents the sequence of packets from source to destination by using Ipv6 routers. The size of flow label is 20 bits. The source and destination can have multiple flows.

Payload length: The size of payload length is 16 bits.

Next Header: The size of next header is 8 bits.

Hop Limit: The size of hop limit is 8 bits.

Source Address: The size of source address is 128 bits.

Destination Address: The size of destination address is 128 bits.

The below figure shows the IPv6 and its different fields.

Suppose that outFileis an ofstreamvariable and output is to be stored in the file outputData.out. Which of the following stateme

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

Option b outFile.open("outputData.out");

Explanation:

In C++, there are several classes given to handle output and input of characters to or from files. They are:

ofstream that write on files
ifstream that read from files

We can use an object of ofstream to hold the contents that we wish to output to an external file. The general syntax is as follows:

ofstream_obj.open(file_name)

This will create a file with a specific file name and it possesses all the contents from the obstream_obj.

How do you determine latitude using an astrolabe?

miv72 [106K]

This was really useful in determining one's location during the times when technology wasn't that advanced yet. First is that it depends as to what time of the day is it being used. If used at day, most probably at high noon, the altitude of the sun would be measured and recorded and/or remembered. Most of the times, the latitude is determined during the day since it is much easier. At night, a star of known declination will be substituted to the sun. Most of the times, the North Star is used. Then, an almanac will be utilized to determine the declination of the Sun or the star, depending on which was used. After which, the formula is applied, which is latitude = 90 degrees - measured altitude +declination.

Which of the following is NOT true about variables?

VikaD [51]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

The value stored by a variable can be changed after it is assigned(true).

The value of a variable can be changed after it is assigned, for example:

int a=10;

and we can change the value of variable a in letter program such as:

a=15;

Variables are a name for a spot in the computer's memory (true).

it is true, because the variables value stored in the computer's memory and we can access theses values by their name (variable name). so Variables are a name for a spot in the computer's memory.

Variable names can be words: such as temperature or height (true).

Yes, the variable name can be words such as height, width, temperature etc.

The value stored by a variable cannot be changed after it is assigned (false).

It is noted that the value stored by a variable can be changed after it is assigned. However, it is noted that is some programming language, you can't change the value of static variable.
