Consider a direct-mapped cache with 216 words in main memory. the cache has 16 blocks of 8 words each. it is a word-addressable computer (rather than a byte-addressable computer which we normally discuss). (a) how many blocks of main memory are there? (b) what is the format of a memory address as seen by the cache, that is, what are the sizes of the tag, cache block, and block offset fields (if they apply)? (c) to which cache block will the memory reference db6316 map?

Write a program that reads a file consisting of students’ test scores in the range 0–200. it should then determine the number of students having scores in each of the following ranges: 0–24, 25–49, 50–74, 75–99, 100–124, 125–149, 150–174, and 175–200. output the score ranges and the number of students. (run your program with the following input data: 76, 89, 150, 135, 200, 76, 12, 100, 150, 28, 178, 189, 167, 200, 175, 150, 87, 99, 129, 149, 176, 200, 87, 35, 157, 189.)

Write a program that prompts the user to input a string. the program then uses the function substr to remove all the vowels from the string. for example, if str = "there", then after removing all the vowels, str = "thr". after removing all the vowels, output the string. your program must contain a function to remove all the vowels and a function to determine whether a character is a vowel.
