The number of records contained within a block of data on magnetic tape is defined by the _______________.
The number of records contained within a block of data on magnetic tape is defined by the _______________.
The correct option is B Blocking factor
The number of records contained within a block of data on
magnetic tape is defined by the Blocking factor.
In computing (specifically data transmission and data
storage), a block, sometimes called a physical record, is a sequence of bytes
or bits, usually containing some whole number of records, having a maximum
length, a block size.
blocking factor: The number of records in a block. Note:
The blocking factor is calculated by dividing the block length by the length of
each record contained in the block. If the records are not of the same length,
the average record length may be used to compute the blocking factor. Synonym
grouping factor.
