RAM is not bound to sequential access of data. What is the benefit of this?(1 point)

Responses

It takes just about the same amount of time to retrieve data from one part of RAM as another.

It takes much longer to retrieve data in RAM than it does the hard drive.

RAM is kept far away from the CPU so that the OS is not confused by an overflow of data.

The stack operates as LIFO ("last in, first out")

The stack operates as FIFO ("first in, first out")

A stack is automatically managed by the CPU, so there is no need for the programmer to allocate space.

Here are the correct answers to the questions based on your descriptions:

Question 1: RAM is not bound to sequential access of data. What is the benefit of this?

  • Correct Response: It takes just about the same amount of time to retrieve data from one part of RAM as another.

Question 2: Which of the following is NOT a fact about the stack?

  • Correct Response: The stack operates as FIFO ("first in, first out"). (The stack operates as LIFO, not FIFO.)

Question 3: Which of the following is NOT a fact about the heap?

  • Correct Response: A heap is ordered, sequential, and smaller than a stack. (Heaps are not ordered and are typically larger compared to a stack.)

Question 4: Which of the following is a Primitive Data Type in Python?

  • Correct Response: float. (In Python, float is a primitive data type, while null is represented as None, and number and char are not primitive data types in Python.)
