<u>The first tools that analyzed and extracted data from floppy disks and hard disks were MS-DOS tools for </u><u>IBM</u><u> PC file systems</u>. A file system is a structured representation of data and a set of metadata describing this data. The file system of the IBM supports stream input/output and storage management, providing a structure over all information stored in the system. A floppy disk consists of a thin plastic disk coated with magnetic material (it was designed by IBM in the early 1970s). A hard disk is fixed on the system unit. It is made up of several circular disks called platters. MS-DOS (Microsoft Disk Operating System) is a licensed operating system for use on microcomputers from various manufacturers.
Answer:
B. 1 6 3
Explanation:
Given function definition for calc:
void calc (int a, int& b)
{
int c;
c = a + 2;
a = a * 3;
b = c + a;
}
Function invocation:
x = 1;
y = 2;
z = 3;
calc(x, y);
cout << x << " " << y << " " << z << endl;
- Since x is passed by value, its value remains 1.
- y is passed by reference to the function calc(x,y);
Tracing the function execution:
c=3
a=3
b=c+a = 6;
But b actually corresponds to y. So y=6 after function call.
- Since z is not involved in function call, its value remain 3.
So output: 1 6 3
Answer:
b. typically contain more circuits in the network than in star or ring networks
Explanation:
In mesh architecture, all computers are connected to each other. In mesh all nodes connect directly and non hierarchical to each other so as to efficiently route data.
Mesh combines the benefits of both ring and star networks. It usually provide relatively short routes through the network (compared to ring networks) and provide many possible routes through the network to prevent one circuit from becoming overloaded (as compared to star network). Mesh network uses decentralized routing with each network performing its own routing.
Mesh network typically contain more circuits in the network than in star or ring networks and are more expensive than ring networks
