I thought the cut for A was 85% last year :P  Meh, its all the same.  Im in year 11 and don't really know how the system works yet.

19/20 according to that web site, but Im 99% sure about that question being D, so I'd say 18/20.  100% for section B, and I'm confidant about section C.

Lol I don't get how it could be D. The b1245 is completely different to b4532. It must have been C
--- End quote ---


I hope it is C, cause thats what I chose.

You know the difference between random access and sequential? Well, look at the stucture of the diagram.



It implies that to access b4532, b1245 has to be read first.

I don't like the notation root\accounts\invoices\b1245\ but I can understand how it could be that.  Also root\accounts\invoices\ isn't a full path, IMO.

Its a stupid question.

60 Gigabytes.

Sections A and B are up.

Question 7
The full path to invoice b4532 is

A. invoices\b4532
B. accounts\invoices\
C. root\accounts\invoices\*
D. root\accounts\invoices\b 1245\

The others are just silly.

I did C too, but now I'm 99% sure it is D, this is because it looks like a sequential access structure now.

What did everyone else get?
--- End quote ---


It would still be wrong. The answer. The file name in the diagram was b1245 but the one in the question was b 1245. Notice the space!

I've got the question book right next to me, there is no space.  Don't ask me why there is on the web site.

oh thats gay

Oh yes I see where your coming from. Damn I didn't think about it that way. Hmmm, since they said the full path I thought it referred to as the file's actual directory on the hard disk. But yes I think you might be right. I haven't see a tricky question like this from VCAA.
