1. Define Data Structures
Data Structures is defined as the way of organizing all data items that
consider not only the elements stored but also stores the relationship between
the elements.

2. Define Linked Lists

Linked list consists of a series of structures, which are not necessarily
adjacent in memory. Each structure contains the element and a pointer to a
structure containing its successor. We call this theNext Pointer. The last cell’sNext
pointer points to NULL.

3. State the different types of linked lists

The different types of linked list include singly linked list, doubly linked
list and circular linked list.

4. List the basic operations carried out in a linked list

The basic operations carried out in a linked list include:
• Creation of a list
• Insertion of a node
• Deletion of a node
• Modification of a node
• Traversal of the list

5. List out the advantages of using a linked list

• It is not necessary to specify the number of elements in a linked

list during its declaration

• Linked list can grow and shrink in size depending upon the insertion and

deletion that occurs in the list

• Insertions and deletions at any place in a list can be handled easily and
efficiently
• A linked list does not waste any memory space

6. List out the disadvantages of using a linked list

• Searching a particular element in a list is difficult and time consuming
• A linked list will use more storage space than an array to store

the same number of elements

7. List out the applications of a linked list

Some of the important applications of linked lists are
manipulation of polynomials, sparse matrices, stacks and
queues.

8. State the difference between arrays and linked lists

Arrays Linked Lists

Size of an array is fixed Size of a list is variable
It is necessary to specify the It is not necessary to specify the
number of elements during number of elements during
declaration. declaration
Insertions and deletions are Insertions and deletions are carried
somewhat difficult out easily
It occupies less memory than a linked It occupies more memory
list for the same number of
elements

9. Define an Abstract Data Type (ADT)

An abstract data type is a set of operations. ADTs are mathematical

abstractions; nowhere in an ADT’s definition is there any mention of how the

set of operations is implemented. Objects such as lists, sets and graphs, along
with their operations can be viewed as abstract data types.

10. What are the advantages of modularity?

• It is much easier to debug small routines than large routines
• It is easier for several people to work on a modular program
simultaneously
•A well-written modular program places certain
dependencies in only one routine, making changes easier

11. What are the objectives of studying data structures?

• To identify and create useful mathematical entities and operations to

determine what classes of problems can be solved using these entities and
operations
• To determine the representation of these abstract entities and to

implement the abstract operations on these concrete

representation
16 MARKS
