vi editor stores most of its information in a hidden swap file.(a) True(b) FalseThis question was posed to me in an interview for internship.This intriguing question comes from Vi-Ex Mode in section The Vi Editor of Unix

Answer»

The CORRECT ANSWER is (a) True

The best I can explain: ACCIDENTS can happen while working on a system like a system or power FAILURE. To recover from these kinds of issues vi stores most of its information in a hidden SWAP file. This file is removed on a successful exit from vi but it remains on the disk if there is an improper shutdown or power failure.
