Data Structures and Algorithms Quiz

The height of a tree is the length of the longest root-to-leaf path in it.

The choice of pivot element significantly affects the efficiency of the Quick sort algorithm.

To delete a node in a binary search tree, we need to consider three cases: no child, one child, and two children.

<p>A circular queue is a data structure that uses a single, fixed-size array to implement a queue, where the rear of the queue is connected to the front.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>Hashing is used to map data of arbitrary size to fixed-size values, typically for faster data retrieval. It is implemented using hash functions.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The limitation of a queue is that it has a fixed size, and once the queue is full, it cannot accommodate more elements.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>A doubly linked list is more advantageous when frequent insertions and deletions are required in both forward and backward directions.</p> Signup and view all the answers
