Question

Program A contains the following segment of code: ==== CORRECT CODE WITH NO FORK CALL ==== int pid = fork(); if (pid == 0) { fork(); fork(); } ==== CORRECT CODE WITH NO FORK CALL ==== Assume that A compiles and runs with no errors, and all processes spawned by A's fork() calls exit gracefully. How many new processes, besides the initial process of A when it was first started, were spawn? 4 5 3 6

          Program A contains the following segment of code:
==== CORRECT CODE WITH NO FORK CALL ====
int pid = fork();
if (pid == 0) {
fork();
fork();
}
==== CORRECT CODE WITH NO FORK CALL ====
Assume that A compiles and runs with no errors, and all processes spawned by A's
fork() calls exit gracefully. How many new processes, besides the initial process of A
when it was first started, were spawn?
