Program Plan Intro
Sequential files:
- A sequential file is a file that has same order of organization of records in which they are entered.
- The order of records does not change in sequential file.
- The information is arranged in a row in sequential files.
- In a sequential file, we can write and read data in a sequence only.

While statements may start and stop anywhere in the flexible manner popularized by Algol60, most modern programming languages insist that statements finish with an end sign like a semicolon or colon. To the contrary, Python and a handful of other programming languages adhere to a set structure in which statements start in a certain column and stop at the end of a line of code unless continuation marks are provided for each statement. Discover how readability, writability, and security are affected by a file's fixed or free format in the following paragraphs.
I need help creating a Java program that is described in the given image and description below:
The attached text file contains record information from records with the following field format:first name,middle name,last name,city nameThe data was badly stored, using the Comma Separated Value (CSV) format, in such a way that the fields do not properly align with that record format. All of the information is there but the record boundaries are mis-aligned. Some, all, or more than a single proper record may exist in as a single record in this file.Example:LarsJame,Thompson,Clifton,JeniferMae,Jones,HenryRick,Luke,SimonsLincoln,Tim,Lee,Huag,BostonSally,Joe,Patton,New YorkHoward,Richard,Larson,Scramento,Samantha,Austin,Henry,St George,GeorgeHenry,Marcus,New Town
Your task is to write a program that will read the data from bad files and write new files with the data correctly stored in a new CSV format and in alphabetical order by last name, first name, middle name. The new format is:last…
Consider a file of 16384 records. Each record is 32 bytes long and its key field is of size 6 bytes. The file is ordered on a non-key field, and the file organization is unspanned. The file is stored in a file system with block size 1024 bytes, and the size of a block pointer is 10 bytes. If the secondary index is built on the key field of the file, and a multilevel index scheme is used to store the secondary index, the number of first-level and second-level blocks in the multilevel index are respectively

- Give the benefits of employing pointers in file organization over sequential file structure.arrow_forwardA file has r=30,000 EMPLOYEE records of fixed-length. Consider a disk with block size B=512 bytes. A block pointer is P=6 bytes long and a record pointer is P R =7 bytes long. Each record has the following fields: NAME (30 bytes), SSN (9 bytes), DEPARTMENTCODE (9 bytes), ADDRESS (40 bytes), PHONE (9 bytes), BIRTHDATE (8 bytes), SEX (1 byte), JOBCODE (4 bytes), SALARY (4 bytes, real number). An additional byte is used as a deletion marker. a) Calculate the record size R in bytes. b) Calculate the blocking factor bfr and the number of file blocks b assuming an unspanned organization. c) Suppose the file is ordered by the key field SSN and we want to construct a primary index on SSN.

- I need the answer as soon as possiblearrow_forwardWrite a C program to Implement a system of three processes which read and write numbers to a file. Each of the three processes P1, P2, and P3 must obtain an integer from the file (these instructions must be executed 200 times). The file only holds one integer at any given time. Given a file F, containing a single integer N, each process must perform the following steps 1. Fork two processes For 200 times: 2. Open F 3. Read the integer N from the file 4. Close F 5. Output N and the process' PID (On the screen) 6. Increment N by 1 7. Open F 8. Write N to F (overwriting the current value in F) 9. Close F b) Briefly describe why the processes P1, P2, and P3 obtain/read duplicates of numbers (why does a particular integer x appear in the output of more than one process)?
