Memory hierarchy in OS refers to the organization of different types of memory in a computer system.
Memory hierarchy typically includes registers, cache memory, main memory (RAM), and secondary storage (hard drive, SSD).
Registers are the fastest and smallest type of memory, located within the CPU.
Cache memory is a small, fast memory located between the CPU and main memory, used to store frequently accessed data.
Main me...
Memory leak is a situation where a program fails to release memory it has allocated, leading to a gradual loss of available memory.
Memory leaks occur when a program allocates memory but does not release it when it is no longer needed.
This can lead to a gradual decrease in available memory, eventually causing the program or system to crash.
Common causes of memory leaks include improper management of dynamic memory alloc...
Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that builds the final sorted array one item at a time.
Start from the second element and compare it with the elements before it to find the correct position.
Repeat this process for all elements in the array.
Time complexity is O(n^2) in the worst case scenario.
Example: void insertionSort(string arr[], int n) { for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) { string key = arr[i]; int j = i - 1; w...
Matrix chain multiplication is a dynamic programming problem to find the most efficient way to multiply a given sequence of matrices.
