I was wondering that can we store unlimited data in a disk. So I just started researching that how can we do that. Well at first it seems quite inappropriate question but when I come to know about this then it make me to think that can i really put infinite data.
EXAMPLE
Here is an example suppose in Windows I just made one new .txt file and rather than storing data in the notepad what if I store my data on Name place means where file name are written.
Like -
Suppose i put some word abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
and i was able to put it 8 times means
26 * 8 - 1 = 207 words I can put (-1 as Z was not coming)
It means 1 thing is sure that i can put 207 words which is quite usefull. But if I try to see the properties I get size of file is 0 bytes it means I can put Infinite data with this type.
So my question is, Is my Hypothesis is correct or not because as per normal people they can easily get fool by this explanation but I want to know the real reason behind this if it is wrong.
Note: This is ubuntu skin for windows xp so my operating system is windows xp professional.
New Folder
orNew Text File
on your desktop, hit propterties, the size reported will be 0 bytes. The fact your folder/file had a long name is meaningless. It does take up space Windows just Doesn't report it.
