What is the complexity of the following code assuming that the cout statement has O(1) complexity. Explain your answer. for (int i = 0; i < n ; i++) for (int j = 0; j < n ; j++) cout << i + j;

The for loop with variable "i" iterates n times. And for each iteration of the for loop with variable "i" another for loop with "j" is iterated n times. Therefore, When i=0 -----------> j goes from 0 to n-1 ----------------> n times When i=1 -----------> j goes from 0 to n-1 ----------------> n times . . When i=n-1 -----------> j goes from 0 to n-1 ----------------> n times. Add n*n times Therefore, the time complexity of the code is O(n2 ).

Please describe when are the best times to use EACH of the following data structures? Trees Binary Trees Binary Search Trees Nodes (types) Paths Path lengths Array lists Linked Lists Doubly-Linked Lists Stacks Array-based Stacks Queues

-->Trees :-If we organize keys in form of a tree (with some ordering e.g., BST), we can search for a given key in moderate time (quicker than Linked List and slower than arrays). Self-balancing search trees like AVL and Red-Black trees guarantee an upper bound of O(Logn) for search . We can insert/delete keys in moderate time (quicker than Arrays and slower than Unordered Linked Lists). Self-balancing search trees like AVL and Red-Black trees guarantee an upper bound of O(Logn) for insertion/deletion. -->Binary Trees :-Used in almost every high-bandwidth router for storing router-tables. -->Binary Search Trees:-Used in many search applications where data is constantly entering/leaving, such as the map and set objects in many languages libraries. -->Nodes:- Internal node:- a node with at least one child. Leaf node:- a node with no children. Root node:- a node distinguished from the rest of the tree nodes. Usually, it is depicted as the highest node of the tree. Sibling nodes:- these are nodes connected to the same parent node. -->Paths:- A paths in a graph is a sequence of vertices such that from each of its vertices there is an edge to the next vertex in the sequence. -->Path lengths:-number of edges that must be followed -->Array lists:-Internally an ArrayList uses an Object[]. As you add items to an ArrayList, the list checks to see if the backing array has room left. If there is room, the new item is just added at the next empty space. If there is not room, a new, larger, array is created, and the old array is copied into the new one. -->Linked Lists :-Linked list are better at addition and removals at a cursor. -->Doubly-Linked Lists:-Doubly Linked List is a variation of Linked list in which navigation is possible in both ways either forward and backward easily as compared to Single Linked List. Doubly LinkedList contains an link element called first and last. Each Link carries a data field(s) and a Link Field called next. Each Link is linked with its next link using its next link. Each Link is linked with its previous link using its prev link. Last Link carries a Link as null to mark the end of the list. -->Stacks :-It makes it LIFO data structure. LIFO stands for Last-in-first-out. Here, the element which is placed (inserted or added) last, is accessed first. In stack terminology, insertion operation is called PUSH operation and removal operation is called POP operation. -->Array-based Stacks :- In spite of capacity limitation, array-based implementation is widely applied in practice. In a number of cases, required stack capacity is known in advance and allocated space exactly satisfies the requirements of a particular task. In other cases, stack's capacity is just intended to be "big enough". Striking example of the last concept is an application stack. It's capacity is quite large, but too deep recursion still may result in stack overflow. -->Queues :-Same as stack, queue can also be implemented using Array, Linked-list, Pointer and Structures. For the sake of simplicity we shall implement queue using one-dimensional array.
