Suppose a heap is stored in an array list as follows: {100, 55, 92, 23, 33, 81}. The parent of 81 is
92
Which of the following statements are true? A. A heap is a complete binary tree. B. Each node is greater than or equal to any of its children. C. A binary tree is complete if every level of the tree is full except that the last level may not be full and all the leaves on the last level are placed left-most. D. A heap is a full binary tree.

The best-time complexity for bubble sort is
O(n)
Based on the bucket sort, but only uses ten buckets
Radix sort
Finds the smallest number in the list and swaps it with the first element. It then finds the smallest number remaining and swaps it with the second element, and so on, until only a single number remains.
Selection sort
To add a new node, you need to start a process by first placing it as _______ and move it up to maintain the heap property.
the last node in the heap
To remove the root, you need to start a process by first placing _______ to the place of the root and move it down to maintain the heap property.
the last node in the heap
Suppose a heap is stored in an array list as follows: {100, 55, 92, 23, 33, 81}. After inserting 103, what is the content of the array list?
{103, 55, 100, 23, 33, 81, 92}
Using the partition algorithm to partition an array {5, 8, 10, 3, 4, 19, 2} for a quick sort, what is the resulting array after the partition?
{3, 2, 4, 5, 10, 19, 8}

O(nlogn)
Suppose a list is {2, 9, 5, 4, 8, 1}. After the first pass of bubble sort, the list becomes
2, 5, 4, 8, 1, 9
Suppose you choose the first element as a pivot in the list {5 2 9 3 8 4 0 1 6 7}. Using the partition algorithm in the book, what is the new list after the partition?
4 2 1 3 0 5 8 9 6 7
Can be described recursively as follows: The algorithm divides the array into two halves and applies a merge sort on each half recursively. After the two halves are sorted, merge them.
Merge sort
Height of a heap containing a single element
0
Sorts the array in multiple phases. Each pass successively swaps the neighboring elements if the elements are not in order.
Bubble sort
Sorts the elements by distributing the elements into a sequence of buckets and then collects the elements from the buckets.
Bucket sort
What is correct about a pivot? A. A pivot divides a list into two sublists of equal size. B. A pivot can be chosen arbitrarily. C. A pivot divides a list into two sublists, the elements in the first list are no larger than the pivot and the elements in the second list are larger than the pivot. D. You should always choose a pivot that divides the list evenly.
B. A pivot can be chosen arbitrarily. C. A pivot divides a list into two sublists, the elements in the first list are no larger
Each of its levels is full, except that the last level may not be full and all the leaves on the last level are placed leftmost.
Complete binary tree
Sort data stored in an external file.
External sort
Uses a binary heap. First adds all the elements to a heap and then removes the largest elements successively to obtain a sorted list.
Heap sort
Sorts a list of values by repeatedly inserting a new element into a sorted sublist until the whole list is sorted.
Insertion sort
The average-time complexity for merge sort is
O(n*n)
The worst-case complexity for a selection sort, insertion sort, bubble sort, and quick sort
O(n*n)
The worst-time complexity for bubble sort is
O(n*n)
The worst-time complexity for insertion sort is
O(n*n)
The worst-time complexity for quick sort is
O(n*n)
Best time complexity for heap sort
O(nlogn)
Works as follows: The algorithm selects an element, called the pivot, in the array. It divides the array into two parts, so that all the elements in the first part are less than or equal to the pivot and all the elements in the second part are greater than the pivot. The algorithm is then recursively applied to the first part and then the second part.
Quick sort
Length of the longest path from the root to a leaf node.
