<span>Storage costs of magnetic tape are much lower than semiconductor storage (chip storage), but they take longer to access because they are not on-board the system and have to be added manually. Chip memory, on the other hand, can be used as primary storage for a system even with a higher cost because it's typically directly connected to the system board and is much more easily accessible by the system.</span>

Which of the following guidelines about the subject line of e-mail messages is most appropriate?
bulgar [2K]
The second option, "<span>Use the subject line wisely to let your reader know the main purpose of the e-mail," is most appropriate.

You can find this answer by eliminating the options -- the first option doesn't make sense because if you include all the details in the subject line, it will be too long. The third option, one or two words, would not help the reader know what's in the email. And the last option, putting nothing in the subject line, would also not help the reader know what's in the email.</span>

marta [7]

Answer:

This question is answered using C++ programming language

#include <fstream>

#include<iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {

  string fname;

  cout<<"Enter Filename: ";

  cin>>fname;

  int lowest = 0;

int highest = 0;

  ifstream ifs(fname);

  int x;

  while (ifs >> x){

  if(x < lowest){

   lowest= x;

  }

  if(x > highest) {

   highest = x;

  }

  }

  ifs.close();    

  for(int i = lowest; i<=highest;i++)

  {

   cout<<i<<" ";

  }

     

}

Explanation:

This line declares fname as string  

string fname;

This prompts user for filename

  cout<<"Enter Filename: ";

This gets filename

  cin>>fname;

This declares and initializes lowest to 0

      int lowest = 0;

This declares and initializes highest to 0

int highest = 0;

This defines the file using ifstream

  ifstream ifs(fname+".txt");

This declares x as integer. x is used to read integers in the file

  int x;

The following iteration will be repeated until there is no other integer to be read from the file

  while (ifs >> x){

This checks for lowest

<em>   if(x < lowest){ </em>

<em>    lowest= x; </em>

<em>   } </em>

This checks for highest

<em>   if(x > highest) { </em>

<em>    highest = x; </em>

<em>   } </em>

  }

This closes the file. i.e. the file has been read

  ifs.close();    

The following iteration prints the range of values from lowest to highest

<em>   for(int i = lowest; i<=highest;i++)  { </em>

<em>    cout<<i<<" "; </em>

<em>   }  </em>

<em />

<em>Please note that the filename must be entered with its extension</em>
