What is the default process priority when a process is started using the nice command?
according to IBM http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-lpic1-v3-103-6/index.html:
Default niceness
You may have guessed from Listing 1 or Listing 2 that the default niceness, at least for processes started by regular users, is 0. This is usually the case on current Linux systems. You can verify the value for your shell and system by running the nice command with no parameters as shown in Listing 3.
Listing 3. Checking default niceness
ian@attic4:~$ nice

B is correct.
Default priority is 10 when process is started using nice.
& default priority is 0 when process is started without using nice.
