Answer:

B. Cache memory.

Explanation:

A cache memory, a special type of random access memory, is a memory that is easily accessibly by a system's CPU (or microprocessor) more quickly than even the regular random access memory. It serves as a buffer between the RAM and the processor. Frequently and commonly used data, programs and applications are temporarily stored in the cache memory so that they are readily accessible and available to the processor. It is as a matter of fact the fastest memory in a computer.

The cache memory comes in three levels - L1, L2 and L3.

L1 cache are often built into the computer's core(s). They are generally small in size between 8KB and 64KB.

L2 and L3 caches are larger than the L1 cache and most times are separate from the CPU.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

mknod

Explanation:

When the user wants to configure a camera device on his Linux computer and the user recognizes that his device does not have a device-specific file. Thus, the user could use the mknod command on his computer to set up an equipment file because it is the command that is used to create a fresh file and these files are not the same as the normal file.

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

words.hasNext()

Explanation:

Given the code snippet below:

  1.        while (inputFile.hasNextLine()) {
  2.            String word = "";
  3.            String line = inputFile.nextLine();
  4.            Scanner words = new Scanner(line);
  5.            while (words.hasNext()) {
  6.                word = words.next();
  7.            }
  8.            System.out.println(word); }
  9.    }

We have a inputFile Scanner object that can read data from a text file and we presume the inputFile has read several rows of data from the text file. So long as there is another line of input data available, the outer while loop will keep running. In each outer loop, one line of data will be read and assign to line variable (Line 3). Next, there is another Scanner object, words, which will take the current line of data as input. To get the last word of that line, we can use hasNext() method. This method will always return true if there is another tokens in its input. So the inner while loop will keep running so long as there is a token in current line of data and assign the current token to word variable. The word will hold the last token of current line of data upon exit from the inner loop. Then we can print the output (Line 8) which is the last word of the current line of data.
