Study Notes

Data Structures

A tree consists of nodes connected by edges; nodes are represented as circles.
Non-primitive data structures include linear data structures like arrays, stacks, linked lists, and queues.

Graphs

Graphs are collections of nodes and edges, representing logical relations between nodes.
Types of graphs include:
- Undirected Graph
- Multi Graph
- Simple Graph
- Directed Graph
- Mixed Graph
- Null Graph
- Weighted Graph

Linear vs Non-Linear Data Structures

Linear Data Structures:
- Every item is related sequentially to its predecessor and successor.
- Data can be traversed in a single run.
- Examples: Arrays, Stacks, Linked Lists, Queues.
- Easier implementation.
Non-Linear Data Structures:
- Items are connected to multiple other items, not in sequence.
- Examples: Trees, Graphs.
- Complex implementation.

Operations on Data Structures

Create: Reserves memory for program elements.
Destroy: Deallocates memory space for specified data structure.
Selection: Accesses a particular piece of data within a structure.
Traversing: Visits every node systematically.
Updation: Modifies existing data.
Searching: Locates a specific value within a structure.
Sorting: Arranges values in a defined order.
Inserting: Adds a new value to the structure.
Deleting: Removes a value from the structure.
Splitting: Partitions a single list into multiple lists.
Merging: Joins two data structures of the same type.

Arrays in C

Arrays store multiple variables of the same type in contiguous memory.
To declare an array: datatype arrayName[arraySize];
Example of initialization: int numbers[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5};
Elements are accessed using their index, starting from 0.
For iteration, a loop (typically a for loop) is commonly used.

Multi-dimensional Arrays

C supports multi-dimensional arrays, such as two-dimensional arrays (matrices).

Example declaration:

int matrix[3][3] = {
    {1, 2, 3},
    {4, 5, 6},
    {7, 8, 9}
};

Key Points About Arrays

Fixed size is determined at compile-time; cannot alter size at runtime.
Elements are stored in contiguous memory locations for efficient access.
C does not perform bounds checking; accessing out-of-bounds can cause errors.

Structures and Unions

A structure in C is a user-defined data type that groups items of varying types.
Defined using the struct keyword.

Example structure:

struct structure_name {
    data_type member_name1;
    data_type member_name2;
};

Dynamic Memory Allocation in C

Functions for dynamic memory allocation include malloc(), calloc(), free(), and realloc().
malloc(): Allocates memory.
free(): deallocates previously allocated memory.
realloc(): Changes the size of previously allocated memory while retaining values.

Representation of Arrays in Memory

Linear arrays are stored in contiguous memory; the address of an element can be calculated.
Example for integer array with base address:
- arr[0] at address 0x1000 contains value 10.
Accessing can be done by index or via pointers.

Algorithm Analysis

Algorithms are systematic instructions for solving tasks, fundamental to implementing data structures.
Analysis of algorithms compares performance based on:
- Input Size: Number of items or graph vertices/edges.
- Time Complexity: Count of elementary operations.
- Space Complexity: Amount of memory required.
- Best, Average, and Worst Case scenarios.
- Order of Growth: Describes how the algorithm's runtime grows as input size increases.
