The following document is an excerpt from a computer textbook. It contains examples of many of the common problems described in this chapter. (The line numbers are for your convenience to identify and refer to problems). First, go through the document and note the problems that you find with it.

1. MANAGING FOLDERS AND DISKS 2. 3. Introduction 4. 5. There are many types of storage media today. Hard disks are the most 6. common. It is the best of all the possible ways to save data. A hard 7. drive is divided into various folders so that files can be 8. saved to them. Definitely, this is the most efficient way to manage a large

9. number of files stored on a disk. 10. 11. Various commands, especially those dealing with disks and 12. directories, produce lots of computer numbers. To get a handle 13. on computer numbers, you need to get the big picture on bits, bytes, 14. megabytes, and gigabytes. 15. A computer may seem intelligent, but essentially it can understand 16. only whether power is on or not. To issue an instruction to a computer, 17. we need to go by 1 (on) or 0 (off). The two digits of 1 and 0 are the 18. foundation of binary (base 2) math. Binary math is based on bits, which 19. is a contraction of two wordsbinary digit. One bit can have 20. the value of either 1 or 0. Bits get a little large to move around, so 21. programmers combine 8 bits together to form a byte. Bytes can increase 22. in number: 1 byte can store a 1; 1 KB (kilobyte) is the same as 1024; 1 MB 23. (megabyte) is 1048576; and 1073742824 equals 1 GB. So, when you 24. hear that a disk has a 40 GB capacity, it can store 40 1074742824 = 25. 42989712960 bytes. 26. 27. Formatting of Disks 28. 29. When you create a file you need to store it on a hard disc. Before that, 30. it must be properly prepared to receive information (formatted). If you 31. have used a disk and it has some space on it, you can not follow this section. 32. 33. While it was being formatted, the disk was divided into a number of 34. concentric rings or tracks. Each track was separated into a number of 35. sectors. Each sector stored 512 bytes. A higher capacity disk contains 36. more tracks and sectors; that is how they stored more data, for your 37. information.
