What method is called to prepare a buffer for reading data from it?

flip()
rewind()
reset()
clear()

The correct answer is: flip()

The method called to prepare a buffer for reading data from it is the flip() method. This method is used to set the limit of the buffer to its current position and then set the position to zero. This allows the buffer to be read from the beginning. The other options are incorrect because rewind() sets the position to zero but does not change the limit, reset() resets the position and limit to their initial values, and clear() clears the buffer and does not change the position or limit.
