Textbook Question
Chapter 2.3, Problem 9E
(Practice) Although the total number of bytes varies from computer to computer, memory sizes of millions and billions of bytes are common. In computer language, the letter M representsthe number 1,048,576, which is 2 raised to the 20th power, and G represents 1,073,741,824, which is 2 raised to the 30th power. Therefore, a memory size of 4 MB is really 4 times 1,048,576 (4,194,304 bytes), and a memory size of 2 GB is really 2 times 1,073,741,824 (2,147,483,648 bytes). Using this information, calculate the actual number of bytes in the following:
a. A memory containing 512 MB
b. A memory consisting of 512 MB words, where each word consists of 2 bytes
c. A memory consisting of 512 MB words, where each word consists of 4 bytes
d. A thumb drive that specifies 2 GB
e. A disk that specifies 4 GB
f. A disk that specifies 8 GB

(c) Does an integer pointer store an integer itself or something else?
(d) What is the purpose of pointers? What do they allow us to do? What would happen if we
didn't have pointers?
Please refer to this textbook: “A. Silberschatz, P. B. Galvin and G. Gagne, “Operating System Principles,”7th Edition, John Wiley & Sons Inc., 2006.”
And answer the following questions:
Question:22
Assume Program X and Program Y run in different processes. At some time point, the two programs need to exchange data with each other.
A. Can the data exchange be made as efficient as if the two programs were run by different threads in the same process? If so, explain how this can be done. If not, please describe the technical issues.
B. If Y needs to wait for X, explain how this can be achieved with a semaphore.
(xiii) Determine all the permutations of the numbers less than or equal to
some given number n.
For example, if n = 123, then the permutations are:
123
321
231
132
213
312
(xiv) Find a series of five consecutive numbers, the sum of the squares of the
first three of which is equal to the sum of the squares of the last two.
For example,
(– 2)2+ (– 1)2+ 02= 12+ 22
(xv) Limit the checking within 1000, to show all the triad numbers within
10,000. A number is said to be a triad number if the double and triple
of the number contain all separate digits with no repetition of any one
of them.
(xvi) Identify and show the integer values of x, y, and z that satisfy the
equation: Z²= X²+ y²

This will be the hardest mission of your life. Our intelligence department has caught the enemy sending codes from one base to another. These enemy codes can either be a simple communication message or a mastermind plan. Our intelligence department has determined that a mastermind plan is a code that has at least 1 consonant character. Since you know programming, your task is to check a code if it is a mastermind plan or not. Instructions: In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for a code. Furthermore, there is a call to the function, hasConsonant().Your task is to declare and define this hasConsonant() function which has the following details:Return type - intName - hasConsonantParameter:char* - to hold the character arrayReturn value - 1 if there is at least 1 consonant and 0 if there is none.

I'm planning to swap the kid's place to another older guy's place so the bully won't be close to the kid. Please help me swap them both. Instructions: You are given a main() function that asks the user for two integer inputs and passes these two values to a function call of the swap() function.The swap function doesn't exist yet so your task is to make its function declaration and implement its function definition.Its details are the following:It accepts two integer addresses as its parametersIt will swap the values found in the two integer addresses.

Given what you learned about hash functions. Explain how such a claim is possible. In other words, how do systems perform authentication without having to store passwords in a format that can be read by the system administrators? Authentication is primarily the process of verifying that provided password is correct. Provide a pseudo code for the function login: def signup(username, password):'''store the user credential so that the system knows how toauthenticate the user in the future (when login() gets called).'''def login(username, password):'''returns True, if the provided username and password are correct'''arrow_forward

DNA sequences consist of A, T, G, C representing nucleobases adenine, thymine, guanine and cytosine. Proteins consist of 20 different letters indicating 20 different amino acids. Suppose you are going to be recruited as a research fellow in a Bio-informatics lab where the recruiters need to compare your DNA characteristics for some reasons with their most successful researcher's DNA. If they observe that highest nucleobase subsequence matching score is more than 5, primarily you will be considered as a valid candidate for their lab. Let's say the part of DNA Sequence of you and the researcher are AATTGCGG, and GACTTACGA respectively.
