The main memory of a computer has $$2$$ $$cm$$ blocks while the cache has $$2$$ $$c$$ blocks. If the cache uses the set associative mapping scheme with $$2$$ blocks per set, then block $$k$$ of the main memory maps to the set:
A
($$k$$ mod $$m$$) of the cache
B
($$k$$ mod $$c$$) of the cache
C
($$k$$ mod $$2c$$) of the cache
D
($$k$$ mod $$2cm$$) of the cache
