Compare and contrast singly linked lists and doubly linked lists in terms of operations and memory overhead.

In a singly linked list -each node knows when the next node comes -lower memory overhead In a doubly linked list -knows when prev and next node -traversal in both direction -deletion at head

Part 2 (5 points) Consider a hash table storing integer keys that handles collision using double hashing. If N = 15 h(k) = k mod 15 d(k) = 11 -k mod 11 Insert the following keys in order into the hash table below 32, 64, 18, 33, 19 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 Part 2 (3 points) Assuming your hash table is implemented as an array, write C++ code to implement the double hashing approach above. Assume you only have to implement the insert method and you have an array called table with each location initialized to -1. This method should take as input the int key. In the method you will need to do the following: compute the hash code detect a collision compute d(k) place the data correctly Make sure your code treats the array as a circular array, and wraps around.

What is the load factor of a hash table in C++? Why is it important?

A load factor of a hash table tells us how full the hash table is and its important because it helps with performance of the speed and the efficiency of space used.

Explain the concept of amortized analysis and how it is applied in algorithm analysis.

Amortized analysis is a technique used to find the average time complexity of an operation. It helps find the average cost overtime rather than looking at each individual thing, it helps understand how fast or slow the program is running.

Describe a scenario where using a queue would be more appropriate than using a stack. Ensure that you show how data is manipulated in each data structure when you justify your choice for the scenario you specify.

An example is having a shared printer and multiple users trying to print something at once using a queue. It will help ensure that every print job will get printed in the order they are received to prevent unfairness and delays.
