A direct-mapped cache holds 64KB of useful data (not including tag or control bits). Assuming that the block size is 32-byte and

the address is 32-bit, find the number of bits needed for tag, index, and byte select fields of the address.

Answer:

A) Number of bits for byte = 6 bits

B) number of bits for index = 17 bits

C) number of bits for tag = 15 bits

Explanation:

Given data :

cache size = 64 kB

block size = 32 -byte

block address = 32 -bit

number of blocks in cache memory  

cache size / block size = 64 kb / 32 b = 2^11 hence the number of blocks in cache memory = 11 bits = block offset

A) Number of bits for byte

log _{2} (6)^2 = 6  bits

B) number of bits for index

block offset + byte number

= 11 + 6 = 17 bits

c ) number of bits for tag

= 32 - number of bits for index

= 32 - 17 = 15 bits

How many bits do you need to count up to 30 help please
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

2⁵ = 32, so that fits.

In general, to calculate the number of bits without guessing, you can take the 2 log of the number and then round up:

\log_2 30 \approx 4.9

rounded up gives 5.

"write a program to play and score the paper-rock-scissor game. each of two users types in either p, r, or s. the program then a
algol13

The program is an illustration of conditional statements.

Conditional statements are used to execute instructions, if and only if certain <em>condition or conditions </em>are met.

Take for instance: <em>If b = 5, print "ab"</em>

The above print statement will only be executed, if the <em>value of b is 5</em>

The paper-rock-scissor program in Python where comments are used to explain each line is as follows,  

#This imports the random module

import random

#This is used to control the repetition of the game

playagain ="T"

#The following is repeated until the user chooses not to play again

while(playagain == "T"):

   #This generates a random choice for the computer

   computer = random.choice(['Rock', 'Paper', 'Scissors'])

   #This gets input for the player

   player = input('Choose: ')

   #If the player and computer choose the selection

   if player == computer:

       #Then, it's a tie

       print('A tie - Both players chose '+player)

   #If the player wins

   elif (player.lower() == "Rock".lower() and computer.lower() == "Scissors".lower()) or (player.lower() == "Paper".lower() and computer.lower() == "Rock".lower()) or (player == "Scissors" and computer.lower() == "Paper".lower()):

       #This prints "player won" and the reason

       print('Player won! '+player +' beats '+computer)

   #If otherwise,

   else:

       #This prints "computer won" and the reason

       print('Computer won! '+computer+' beats '+player)

   #This asks if the player wants to play again

   playagain = input("Play again? T/F: ")

At the end of each round,

  • The program displays the winner
  • Or prints a tie, if there's a tie

<h3>What is a unit test?</h3>

A unit test can be defined as an automated test that's typically written and run by a software developer, so as to ensure that a section (component) of a software application meets its design specifications, functionalities and requirements.

In this scenario, a practice that should be implemented by the software developer is to separate the Agile and DevOps software development framework.
