Thanks for going thru this, I was dreading to read walls of boring text to try and understand how this all works

In a way the coronavirus has been really good for higher education. If not for covid, this video would not have been made publicly available.

Hey um , i have a small prob, in indexed allocation , in the index block why there are 3 (-1)s ? In FAT table (-1) means the last block, but in indexed allocation whats the meaning of (-1)? I dont understand why there are 3 (-1)s in index block, and in the last part of video ,you replaced those 3 (-1)s with some block numbers, so that means (-1) is like free blocks associated to a file so that the file can expand? Am i correct?, i mean according to given example the file "jeep" was given 3 extra free blocks(mentioned as -1 each) so that the file can expand to those 3 blocks if needed? Am i corect? Pls reply i have an exam tomorrow🙂
