Example sentence(s):

例えば、ハードディスクから、あるセクタのデータを1回だけ読み出してバッファに格納し、それ以後は、実際のディスクへのアクセスを行わずに、代わりにバッファからデータを読み出すだけで済ませれば、アクセスに要する時間を大幅に節約することができる。 - Insider's Computer Directory

Notes to answerer

Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. Tak, geopiet, score = 20, więc three score and ten jest siedemdziesiąt.

geopiet didn't see it in you answer

Frank Szmulowicz, Ph. D. BTW. There is the famous Gettysburg address by Abraham Lincoln, which uses score for a dramatic, near-biblical effect: <b>Four score and seven years</b> ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Osiemdziesiąt siedem po francusku jest quatre-vingt sept = cztery dwudziestki plus siedem.

Wielkie dzięki! Wszystkiego dobrego w Nowym Roku!
