Monolithic kernel is a single process running through the entirely in a single address space. It is a single static binary file while microkernel is broken down into separate processes known as serves and some of the kernels run in kernel space and some run in user space .
Other differences:
1.Monolithic kernel is much older than microkernel.
2.Monolithic kernels are used in Unix and Linux while microkernels are used in QNX,L4 and HURD.
3.monolithic kernels are faster than microkernels.
4.Monolithic kernels generally are bulky while pure microkernels are small in size.
5.In monolithic kernels the device drivers reside in the kernel space while in the microkernel the device drivers reside in the user space.

Create a function in C++ called order() that takes two integer reference parameters. If the first argument is greater than the second argument, reverse the two arguments. Otherwise, take no action. That is, order the two arguments used to call order() so that, upon return, the first argument will be less than the second. For example, given
int x=1, y=0;
order(x, y);
following the call, x will be 0 and y will be 1.

Create a function called reverse() that takes two parameters. The first parameter called str, is a pointer to a string that will be reversed upon return from the function. The second parameter is called count, and it specifies how many characters of str to reverse(). Give count a default value that, when present, tells reverse() to reverse the entire string.(use C++ language)

Given the following class declaration;
class dynarray {
int *p;
int size;
public:
dynarray(int s);
int &put(int i);
int get(int i);
//create operator=( function
};
fill in all the details that will create a dynamic array type. That is, allocate memory for the array, storing a pointer to this memory i p. Store the size of the array, in bytes, in size. Have put() return a reference to the specified element, and have get() return the value of a specified element. Dont allow the boundaries of the array to be overrun. Also, overload the assignment operator so that the allocated memory of each array is not accidentally destroyed when one array is assigned to another.
