What is the worst-case time complexity of the selection sort algorithm, and what is its primary operation?
Consider the following array representation of a min binary heap: [1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 6, 8].
If we perform an extract-min operation on this heap, what will be the resulting array after the heap property is restored according to our lectures?
Consider the following partially sorted array after a few steps of insertion sort: [2, 5, 9, 4, 15, 3].
How many comparisons will insertion sort perform when inserting the element 4 into its correct position in the array during the next step of the algorithm?
Consider the following undirected graph:
If we perform Breadth-First Search (BFS) traversal starting from node 3, how many of the following traversal(s) is/are possible?
3 → 2 → 4 → 6 → 7 → 1 → 8 → 53 → 4 → 2 → 6 → 7 → 8 → 1 → 53 → 7 → 4 → 6 → 2 → 5 → 1 → 83 → 2 → 6 → 1 → 4 → 7 → 8 → 53 → 2 → 8 → 1 → 6 → 5 → 4 → 73 → 4 → 6 → 2 → 8 → 1 → 5 → 7
Which of the following statements about quicksort is TRUE?
Consider a double hashing scheme in which the primary hash function is
h1(k) = (2k+3)mod 29
and the secondary hash function is
h2(k) = 1+(3k mod 23).
Assume that the table size is 29.
Find the address returned by probe 1 in the probe sequence for the key value k = 75. Assume that the probe sequence begins at probe 0.
Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of an algorithm?
f ( n ) = O (g ( n )) implies f ( n ) = Ω (g ( n ))
f ( n ) = Θ (g ( n )) implies f ( n ) = O (g ( n )) and f( n ) = Ω (g ( n ))
f ( n ) = Ω (g ( n )) implies f ( n ) = O (g ( n ))
f ( n ) = O (g ( n )) implies f ( n ) = Θ (g ( n ))
f ( n ) = Θ (g ( n )) implies f ( n ) = O (g ( n )) but not f( n ) = Ω (g ( n ))
How many statement(s) shown above is/are correct?
Consider the following array: [3, 6, 8, 10, 1, 2, 4].
Suppose we perform quicksort on this array using the first element as the pivot. What is the state of the array after the first partitioning step based on our discussion in lectures?
What is the primary difference between a queue used in BFS and a stack used in DFS?
