- A3Q3.c - You are to write a C program that implements the following disk scheduling algorithms: a. FCFS [10 marks] b. SCAN [10 marks] c. C-SCAN [10 marks] d. SSTF [10 marks] e. LOOK [10 marks] f. C-LOOK [10 marks] • Your program will service a disk with 300 cylinders numbered 0 to 299. • • • • The program will service the requests (a list of 20 cylinder numbers) given in the file request.bin. This file contains (4 byte) integer values representing requests ranging from 0-299. Your program will take the initial position of the disk head as the first command line argument and the direction of the head as the second command line argument. It will then output the requests in the order in which they are serviced, and the total amount of head movements required by each algorithm. In particular, your program needs to do the following: Your program should take two command line arguments a) First command line argument - initial position of the disk head (an integer value) b) Second command line…arrow_forward2.
