Omega Notation, Ω The notation Ω(n) is the formal way to express the lower bound of an algorithm's running time. It measures the _ case time complexity or the best amount of time an algorithm can possibly take to complete.

Best

_ Sort is a comparison-based sorting algorithm in which each pair of adjacent elements is compared and the elements are swapped if they are not in order. This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and worst case complexity are of Ο(n^2) where n is the number of items.

Bubble

Each link of a linked list contains a link to the next link called _.

Next

Linked list can be visualized as a chain of _, where every _ points to the next _. (Only type answer once, it's the same.)

Nodes / Node

A _ algorithm is one which does not take into account the elements which are already sorted. They try to force every single element to be re-ordered to confirm their sortedness.

Non-Adaptive / Non Adaptive

A sequence of values is said to be in _ order, if the successive element is greater than or equal to its previous element in the sequence. This order occurs when the sequence contains duplicate values. For example: 1, 3, 3, 6, 8, 9.

Non-Decreasing / Non Decreasing

A sequence of values is said to be in _ order, if the successive element is less than or equal to its previous element in the sequence. This order occurs when the sequence contains duplicate values. For example: 9, 8, 6, 3, 3, 1.

Non-Increasing / Non Increasing

Theta Notation, θ The notation θ(n) is the formal way to express both the lower bound and the upper bound of an algorithm's running time. It measures the _ case time complexity.

Atomic − Definition should define a single concept. 2. _ − Definition should be able to be mapped to some data element. 3. Accurate − Definition should be unambiguous. 4. Clear and Concise − Definition should be understandable.

Traceable

Printing all array elements one by one is called _.

Traversing

The basic operations on data structures are: 1. _ 2. Searching 3. Insertion 4. Deletion 5. Sorting 6. Merging

Traversing

If a sorting algorithm, after sorting the contents, changes the sequence of similar content in which they appear, it is called _ Sorting.

Unstable

The 5 important categories of algorithms are: 1. Search 2. Sort 3. Insert 4. _ 5. Delete

Update

_ updates an element at the given index in an array.

Update

A _ is a single elementary unit of information representing an attribute of an entity.

Field

A _ is a collection of records of the entities in a given entity set.

File

A linked list contains the connection link to the first link called _.

First

Data items that are divided into sub items are called _ _.

Group Items

_ provides the internal representation of a data structure. _ also provides the definition of the algorithms used in the operations of the data structure. (Only type once, it's the same answer.)

Implementation

Sorting algorithms may require some extra space for comparison and temporary storage of few data elements. These algorithms do not require any extra space and sorting is said to happen within the array itself. This is called _ Sorting. Bubble Sort is an example of this.

In-Place / In Place

A sequence of values is said to be in _ Order, if the successive element is greater than the previous one. For example: 1, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9.

Increasing

Each location of an element in an array has a numerical _, which is used to identify the element.

Index

The 5 important categories of algorithms are: 1. Search 2. Sort 3. _ 4. Update 5. Delete

Insert

Adding an element at the given index into an array is called _.

Insertion

The basic operations on data structures are: 1. Traversing 2. Searching 3. _ 4. Deletion 5. Sorting 6. Merging

Insertion

_ Sort is an in-place comparison-based sorting algorithm. It maintains a sub-list which is always sorted. An element which is to be inserted in this sorted sub-list has to find its appropriate place and then inserted there. The array is searched sequentially and unsorted items are moved and inserted into the sorted sub-list (in the same array). This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and worst case complexity are of Ο(n^2), where n is the number of items.

Insertion

public void _(int[] list) { · int length = list.length; · · for (int i = 0; i < length; i++) · { · · trickle(list, i); · } } public void trickle(int[] list, index) { · for (int i = index; i >= 1; i--) · { · · if (list[i] < list[i - 1]) · · { · · · swap(list[i], list[i - 1]); · · } · } }

InsertionSort / Insertion Sort / Insertion_Sort

Traceable − Definition should be able to be mapped to some data element. 3. _ − Definition should be unambiguous. 4. Clear and Concise − Definition should be understandable.

Accurate

A sorting algorithm is said to be _ if it takes advantage of already 'sorted' elements in the list that is to be sorted. That is, while sorting if the source list has some element already sorted, it will take this into account and will try not to re-order them.

Adaptive

Searching

_ sort is an in-place comparison-based algorithm in which the list is divided into two parts, the sorted part at the left end and the unsorted part at the right end. Initially, the sorted part is empty and the unsorted part is the entire list. The smallest element is selected from the unsorted array and swapped with the leftmost element, and that element becomes a part of the sorted array. This process continues moving unsorted array boundary by one element to the right. This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and worst case complexities are of Ο(n^2), where n is the number of items.
