Study guide
In this lab you implement recursion, array operations (traverse, insert, delete, merge), linear and binary search, insertion, bubble and selection sort, stack push and pop, queues and circular queues using arrays, infix-to-postfix conversion and insertion and deletion in single and double linked lists. Test each structure with empty, single and full cases.
Why Software Lab-V (Data Structures) Matters
These programs are the classic coding-interview problems, so writing them from scratch is direct placement preparation.
How to Prepare for Software Lab-V (Data Structures)
- Implement each without notes after the first time.
- Test boundary cases such as empty and full structures.
- Be ready to state complexities in the viva.
