Hope this helps!! :)
#1) An important task that the operating system performs is ____, which keeps track of the files stored on a computer so that they can be retrieved when needed.
Answer: File Management System. Keeps track of where files are stored and determines how the files are stored following the operating system file allocation policies. It uses available storage space efficiently for files and creates a record/log of all file usage. It allocates a file to a user if is free, and if they are permitted access to it. Then de-allocates file when the user is finished with it.
Answer:
When a programmer tries to access an item in an array cell whose index is greater than or equal to the array's logical size, this data element or item is garbage. This means that currently, the item is not the part of the program's useful data. Garbage contains objects or data which will not be used by a program running on it. So the value returned could be either of the two:
- Value would be an arbitrary or random number if it is an array of numbers. Arbitrary means that the value is not predefined or specified in advance.
- Value returned would be null if it is an array of objects.
