- (True/False): Physical sectors are always 512 bytes because the sectors are marked on the disk by themanufacturerOperating systems will always try to store a file's successive blocks on the next available disk blocks. When it comes to magnetic disks, why is this so important?Design a program in Python programming language which has the following points. Take input from user a file name with location which is present in client system. Copy the file to the server system with same format. The file can be at any format ( .txt, .jpg, .mp3 etc ). The file received status should be printed on server and sent to client. Use socket programming to perform the task. Paste the code and output snapshot. Server Output: Waiting… Client Output: Enter file name and location to send : d:\r.jpg Sending…. Server Output: Waiting… Receiving… Client Output: Enter file name and location to send : d:\r.jpg Sending…. File Sent to Server. Server Output: Waiting… Receiving… File Received from Client.

Is this anything that we can figure out?Cypher block chaining or cypher feedback mode is required when transferring a large file. How much more productive is it compared to the other?A directory consists of different types of files ( .c, .txt and .sh ). Write a shell script to segregate and store the name of the files according to their types, into separate files. [You have to create three separate files, for the files with .c , .txt and .sh extension].
