Question

Normally counters are retentive. This means that if your accumulated count is up to 300 and power to your system is lost, when power is restored the accumulated count will be:a: 000B.250c. 300D. 999

Answer 1

A: 000.

Normally counters are retentive, which means they retain the accumulated count even when power is lost. So, in this case, when power is restored, the accumulated count will still be 300. However, if the counter is non-retentive, then the accumulated count would have been reset to 000 after the power loss.
