Suppose that only 80% of the student records from exercise 16.28 have a value for phone, 85% for major_dept_code, 15% for minor_dept_code, and 90% for degree_program; and suppose that we use a variable-length record file. each record has a 1-byte field type for each field in the record, plus the 1-byte deletion marker and a 1-byte end-of-record marker. suppose that we use a spanned record organization, where each block has a 5-byte pointer to the next block (this space is not used for record storage). a. calculate the average record length r in bytes. b. calculate the number of blocks needed for the file.

Write a program called assignment3 (saved in a file assignment3.java) that computes the greatest common divisor of two given integers. one of the oldest numerical algorithms was described by the greek mathematician, euclid, in 300 b.c. it is a simple but very e↵ective algorithm that computes the greatest common divisor of two given integers. for instance, given integers 24 and 18, the greatest common divisor is 6, because 6 is the largest integer that divides evenly into both 24 and 18. we will denote the greatest common divisor of x and y as gcd(x, y). the algorithm is based on the clever idea that the gcd(x, y) = gcd(x ! y, y) if x > = y and gcd(x, y) = gcd(x, y ! x) if x < y. the algorithm consists of a series of steps (loop iterations) where the “larger” integer is replaced by the di↵erence of the larger and smaller integer. this continues until the two values are equal. that is then the gcd.
