A programmer opened a file using the file descriptor fd. The file contains the following sequence of bytes:
12, 14, 33, 33, 33, 12, 14, 1, 6, 33, 12, 14, 1, 6, 12
The programmer then uses these two system calls:
lseek(fd, 3, SEEK_SET);
read(fd, &buffer, 4);
note, the lseek call makes a seek to byte 3 of the file. What does buffer contain after the read system call completes?
Group of answer choices
