True/False: A linear search can only be implemented with integer values.

False

True/False: Before you can perform a bubble sort, the data must be stored in descending order.

False

12) The ________ is adequate for searching through small arrays. A) binary search B) linear search C) unary search D) bubble sort E) None of these

B

7) Using a linear search to find a value that is stored in the last element of an array of 20,000 elements, ________ element(s) must be compared. A) 20,000 B) only the first C) only half D) 2000 E) None of these

A

9) Data that is sorted in ascending order is ordered ________. A) from lowest to highest value B) from highest to lowest value C) always with a binary sort algorithm D) always with a linear sort algorithm E) None of these

A

1) A ________ algorithm is a method of locating a specific item of information in a larger collection of data. A) sort B) search C) standard D) linear E) None of these

B

4) A binary search begins with the ________ element of an array. A) first B) last C) largest D) middle E) None of these

D

True/False: Before you can perform a selection sort, the data must be stored in ascending order.

False

True/False: The bubble sort is an easy way to arrange data into ascending order, but it cannot arrange data into descending order.

False

True/False: Using a binary search, you are more likely to find an item than if you use a linear search.

False

True/False: In the average case, an item is just as likely to be found near the beginning of an array as near the end.

True

True/False: The number of comparisons made by a binary search is expressed in powers of two.

True

11) When an array is sorted from highest to lowest, it is said to be in ________ order. A) reverse B) forward C) descending D) ascending E) None of these

C

13) ________ algorithms are used to arrange random data into some order. A) Standard search B) Linear C) Sorting D) Binary search E) None of these

C

2) The advantage of a linear search is its ________. A) complexity B) efficiency C) simplicity D) speed E) None of these

C

3) A(n) ________ search is more efficient than a ________ search. A) character, string B) integer, double C) binary, linear D) linear, binary E) None of these

C

5) The ________ sort usually performs fewer exchanges than the ________ sort. A) bubble, selection B) binary, linear C) selection, bubble D) ANSI, ASCII E) None of these

C

6) Array elements must be ________ before a binary search can be performed. A) summed B) set to zero C) sorted D) positive numbers E) None of these

C

8) A(n) ________ search uses a loop to sequentially step through an array. A) binary B) unary C) linear D) relative E) None of these

C

10) Regardless of the algorithm being used, a search through an array is always performed ________. A) from lowest to highest element B) from highest to lowest element C) beginning with the middle element D) using a binary search E) None of these
