Expert Solution & Answer

Program Description Answer

In this case, “garbage in, garbage out” is abbreviated as GIGO.

Hence, the correct answer is option “B”.

Explanation of Solution

Garbage in, garbage out:

The word “garbage” means invalid data in the computer program. If the user enter invalid data as an input, the program returns unrecognizable output. The process of invalid input and output is called as “garbage in” and “garbage out”. The sentence “garbage in, garbage out” is abbreviated as “GIGO”.

Explanation for incorrect options:

Great input, great output:

It is an invalid abbreviation of “GIGO”. Great input and great out shows the user opinion of values. So, it is considered as invalid option.

Hence, the option “A” is wrong.

GIGahertz Output:

It is an invalid abbreviation of “GIGO”. The word “GIGahertz” is abbreviated as “GHz” and it refers the operating speed of CPU. So, it is considered as invalid option.

Hence, the option “C” is wrong.

GIGabyte Operation:

It is an invalid abbreviation of “GIGO”. The word “GIGabyte” is abbreviated as “GHz” and it refers the operating speed of CPU. So, it is considered as invalid option.

Hence, the option “D” is wrong.

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?
Please solve and show all work. Suppose there are four routers between a source and a destination hosts. Ignoring fragmentation, an IP datagram sent from source to destination will travel over how many interfaces? How many forwarding tables will be indexed to move the datagram from the source to the destination?
Please solve and show all work. When a large datagram is fragmented into multiple smaller datagrams, where are these smaller datagrams reassembled into a single large datagram?
