Question
Chapter 7, Problem 1CC
Program Plan Intro
Four important characteristics of the secondary storage.
Expert Solution & Answer
Program Description Answer
Four important characteristics of the secondary storage are media, capacity, storage devices and access speed.
Explanation of Solution
Media: They are physical device that holds the
Capacity: It is the measures of how much data a storage medium can hold.
Storage devices: These are the hardware devices which helps in reading data and programs from storage media. Most of the time they are also used to write data on storage media as well.
Access speed: It measures the amount of time required by the storage device to retrieve programs and data from storage media.

What does the value of the top variable indicate in this ArrayStack implementation?
What will happen if we call pop on this stack? What value will be returned, and what changes will occur in the array and the top variable?
3. If we push the value "echo" onto the stack, where will it be stored in the array, and what will be the new value of top?
4. Explain why index 0 contains the string "alpha" even though top is currently 3.
5. What would the state of the stack look like (values in the array and value of top) after two consecutive pop 0 operations?
