Each question carries 10 marks. Rest 20 marks are for viva-voce. Answer all the questions from both the sections.You can use illustrations and diagrams to enhance the explanation. Include the screen layouts also along with your assignment responses. Please go through the guidelines regarding assignments given in the Programme Guide for the format of presentation. SECTION-A (C-Programming) Q1: Briefly discuss the concept of “Call by value” and “Call by reference”. Give example code in C for each. Support your code with suitable comments. Q2: Briefly discuss the relation between Pointers and Arrays, giving suitable example. Write a program in C, to print transpose of a 2D matrix entered by a user. Support your program with suitable comments. Q3: Write an algorithm to find the slope of a line segment whose end point coordinates are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). The algorithm gives output whether the slope is positive, negative or zero. Transform your algorithm to C program. Note : Slope of line segment = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1) Q4: Write an algorithm to find the HCF (Highest Common Factor) of the two numbers entered by a user. Transform your algorithm to a C program, support your program with suitable comments. SECTION-B (PYTHON-Programming) Q1: Discuss the connect( ) method of MySQL. Connector interface. List the arguments involved with connect( ) method. Write Python code to create database student_DB and to connect to student_DB (make suitable assumptions wherever necessary). Q2: What are Pandas ? Write steps to import, read and print a CSV file using Pandas. Also, transform your steps in to suitable code in Python. Q3: Write steps to create a package. Apply these steps to create a package named volume and create 3 modules in it named cube, cuboid and sphere, having function to calculate volume of the cube, cuboid and sphere respectively. Import the modules defined in the package and use the defined functions for calculation of volume respectively. Q4: What does map( ) function do ? Write a program in Python to print the cube of the numbers present in the list, by using map( ) function. 3 Course Code : MCS-208 Course Title : Data Structures and Algorithms Assignment Number : PGDCA_NEW(II)/208/Assignment/2024 Maximum Marks : 100 Weightage : 30% Last Dates for Submission : 30thApril 2024 (for January Session) 31st October 2024 (for July Session) There are four questions in this assignment, which carry 80 marks.
