The correct option is B Paper tape
Perforated paper used as input or output media is
known as Paper tape.
Punched tape or perforated paper tape is a form of
data storage, consisting of a long strip of paper in which holes are punched to
store data. Paper tapes constructed from punched cards were
widely used throughout the 19th century for controlling looms. Perforated paper
tapes were first used by Basile Bouchon in 1725 to control looms. However, the
paper tapes were expensive to create, fragile, and difficult to repair.
Data were represented by the presence or absence of
a hole at a particular location. Tapes originally had five rows of holes for
data. Later tapes had six, seven and eight rows. An early electro-mechanical
calculating machine, the Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator or Harvard
Mark I, used paper tape with twenty-four rows.[2] A row of smaller sprocket
holes that were always punched served to feed the tape, originally using a
wheel with radial teeth called a sprocket wheel. Later optical readers used the
sprocket holes to generate timing pulses.
