<span>b.      </span>Wear mitigation.

<span>c.      </span>Wear prevention

<span>d.      </span>Wear leveling

The answer is d) Wear leveling.


This technique by some SSD controllers to increase the memory’s lifetime is called wear leveling. The mechanism for this principle is simple: distribute the entries for all the blocks evenly so that they will wear out evenly.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

The following code is written in Python it doesn't use any loops, instead it uses a recursive function in order to continue asking the user for the inputs and count the number of positive values. If anything other than a number is passed it automatically ends the program.

def countPos(number=input("Enter number: "), counter=0):

   try:

       number = int(number)

       if number > 0:

           counter += 1

           newNumber = input("Enter number: ")

           return countPos(newNumber, counter)

       else:

           newNumber = input("Enter number: ")

           return countPos(newNumber, counter)

   except:

       print(counter)

       print("Program Finished")

countPos()

If you have an if/else if/else code sequence with 4 blocks, what is the minimal number of input values that you should use to te
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

4 is the correct answer for the above question.

Explanation:

  • If the if-else sequence has 4 blocks then it will be designed like if, else-if, else-if and then else which made 4 blocks which are as follows:-
  1. The first block is an if block.
  2. Then the second block is an else-if block.
  3. The third block is also else-if block and
  4. The fourth block else blocks.
  • So there is a need of 4 value (one value for each case) to test the application which is defined in the above scenario.
  • It is because when the first if statement is false then the first else-if statement is executed and when the first else statement is false then the second else-if statement is executed and when it is false then the else statement will executed.
