At offsets 6-9, you find the following bytes: [4A 46 49 46]. (Note: In this class, we will use square brackets to represent hex bytes

At offsets 6-9, you find the following bytes: [4A 46 49 46]. (Note: In this class, we will use square brackets to represent hex bytes found on disk in offset order.) Decode these bytes individually, as single-byte data structures, using an ASCII table (you can find ASCII tables on the Internet). What ASCII string do these bytes decode to?

Instead of presuming these bytes contain an ASCII string, presume it is a DWORD (4-byte (4B)) data structure containing a big endian number. What is the number? Provide the number in both hexadecimal and decimal. Use either \x or 0x to denote a hex number.

Now presume these bytes contain a 4B little endian number. What is the number? Provide the number in hexadecimal and decimal.

What is the 64b (64 bit) data structure stored at offset 56? (Remember to write it in square brackets and put a space between each hex pair for ease of reading/grading.)

Offset 0 contains \xFF. This converts to 255 decimal. While this is the max number you could store in this one-byte data structure, what is the max count (i.e. max number of pointers you could address with this number? Briefly explain your answer.
