cld-r questions: binary file

[jyang72211]

See attached question.  Since the question said VI1 was used to createa a binary file, the binary file doesn't exist before VI1 was execuated.  The default value for open/create/replace file is open, and if the file doesn't exist, an error occur?  I am reading into the question to much?

Yes, you are reading too much into the question, because your (otherwise potentially valid) concern is not among the four possible answer.

As Altenbach said, you are looking way too much into this question.  You are left to assume that VI1 has already ran.

ok, I agree that I read too much into the question.  However, if we are supposed to assume that a piece of code work, I am not sure why it doesn't work in reality on the exam.

[altenbach]

it works once that file exists in any form, even empty. 🙂
