Is it possible with a sequential file organization to permitsequential scanning of the data, based on several sortedorders? If not, why not? If it is possible, how?
In contrast with a sequential file organization, would it be possible to keep the records in multiple sequences? Why or why not?
When we talk about "file handling," what do we mean, and why do we need file handling services in the first place? As much specificity as possible is appreciated.
