  • Q2. Difference between cluster and non-cluster indexing. Do you know about database indexing?
  • Ans. 

    Cluster indexing physically reorders the data on disk to match the index, while non-cluster indexing does not.

    • Cluster indexing physically reorders the data on disk to match the index structure, leading to faster retrieval of data.

    • Non-cluster indexing creates a separate data structure that points to the actual data, which may result in slower retrieval times.

    • Cluster indexing is typically used in primary keys, while non-...

  • Q3. Difference between stack and heap memory.
  • Ans. 

    Stack memory is used for static memory allocation and follows a Last In First Out (LIFO) structure, while heap memory is used for dynamic memory allocation and has a more flexible structure.

    • Stack memory is limited in size and is typically faster to access compared to heap memory.

    • Variables stored in stack memory have a fixed size determined at compile time, while variables in heap memory can have a size determined at ru...

  • Q4. What is a stable sort?
  • Ans. 

    A stable sort is a sorting algorithm that preserves the relative order of equal elements in the sorted output.

    • Stable sorts are useful when the original order of equal elements needs to be maintained.

    • Examples of stable sorting algorithms include Merge Sort, Bubble Sort, and Insertion Sort.

    • In a stable sort, if two elements have the same key value, their relative order in the original array is preserved in the sorted arra

  • Q5. What's the time complexity of insertion in a hashmap?
  • Ans. 

    Time complexity of insertion in a hashmap is O(1).

    • Insertion in a hashmap has a constant time complexity of O(1) on average.

    • This is because hashmaps use a hashing function to determine the index where the key-value pair should be stored.

    • Even in the worst-case scenario, where there are collisions, the time complexity is still O(1) due to techniques like chaining or open addressing.

    • Example: Inserting a key-value pair into...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q6. What is hashing?
  • Ans. 

    Hashing is a process of converting input data into a fixed-size string of bytes using a hash function.

    • Hashing is used to securely store passwords by converting them into a hash value.

    • Hashing is used in data structures like hash tables to quickly retrieve data based on a key.

    • Common hash functions include MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-256.
