Answer:

Secondary memory.

Explanation:

Unlike main memory which loses its content when electrical power to the system is turned off, secondary memory is volatile and persistent in nature. i.e it retains its content whether or not power is supplied to the computer that is holding it. As a matter of fact, they (secondary memory) are meant to store data permanently. Examples of such memory are the hard drives, floppy disks, flash drives, CDs and CDROMs.

Also, unlike the primary or main memory that can be accessed directly by the processor of the computer housing it, secondary memory are not accessed directly.

Which expression correctly determines that String s1 comes before String s2 in lexicographical order
Assoli18 [71]

Options :

A.) s1 < s2

B.) s1 <= s2

C.) s1.compareTo(s2) == −1

D.) s2.compareTo(s1) < 0

E.) s1.compareTo(s2) < 0

Answer: E.) s1.compareTo(s2) < 0

Explanation: Lexicographical ordering simply means the arrangement of strings based on the how the alphabets or letters of the strings appear. It could also be explained as the dictionary ordering principle of words based on the arrangement of the alphabets. In making lexicographical comparison between strings, the compareTo () method may be employed using the format below.

If first string = s1 ; second string = s2

To compare s1 with s2, the format is ;

s1.compareTo(s2) ;

If s1 comes first, that is, before s2, the method returns a negative value, that is a value less than 0 '< 0', which is the case in the question above.

If s2 comes first, that is, before s1, the method returns a positive value, that is a value greater than 0 '> 0'.

If both are s1 and s2 are the same, the output will be 0.
