Are blocks physically contiguous like frames are?
I understand that frames are physically contiguous since frames are the physical representation of a page in memory whereas a page need not be contiguous since it's simply the logical way of writing about the physical frames. Did I understand this correctly? Then what is the main difference betwen a page and a block and the difference bewteen a frame and a block? And is a block physical or virtual?
