Which of the following statements is false?
A) With a BufferedOutputStream each output operation is directed to a buffer large enough to hold the data of many output operations. Transfer to the output device is performed in one large physical output operation when the buffer fills.
B) With a BufferedOutputStream, a partially filled buffer can be forced out to the device at any time by invoking the stream object's force method.
C) With a BufferedInputStream, many "logical" chunks of data from a file are read as one large physical input operation into a memory buffer.
D) With a BufferedInputStream, as a program requests data, it's taken from the buffer. When the buffer is empty, the next actual physical input operation is performed.
