Question

A larger computer designed to handle complex scientific calculations.

• A. May use only a firmed word-length storage approach
• B. Will likely require a character addressable storage unit
• C. Must use fixed length words of four character each
• D. Will not use numbered address locations
• E. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A May use only a firmed word-length storage approach

A larger computer designed to handle complex scientific calculations may use only a firmed word-length storage approach.

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media that are used to retain digital data. It is a core function and fundamental component of computers. In the Von Neumann architecture, the CPU consists of two main parts: The control unit and the arithmetic logic unit (ALU). The former controls the flow of data between the CPU and memory, while the latter performs arithmetic and logical operations on data.
