Daniel,

Isn't figuring this out on your own the point of a computer systems class?

I don't mean to be rude, but learning how to solve problems is what software
development is all about. You will be asked to solve problems like this
during interviews for a job and knowing how to do that is much more
important I think that making sure you get the best possible answer. The
interviewer wants to know if you can think, and how well you can apply your
knowledge to solving problems.

Asking a group like this is one way to solve this problem, but it won't help
you learn what you really need to know.
