DATA STRUCTURES

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
We can implement non-linear data structure so that operation on the data is
A
faster
B
slower
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The main advantage of non-linear data structure is that it uses memory very efficiently than linear data structures.

Detailed explanation-2: -The non-linear data structure cannot be implemented directly, and it is implemented using the linear data structure like an array and linked list. The tree itself is a very broad data structure and is divided into various categories like Binary tree, Binary search tree, AVL trees, Heap, max Heap, min-heap, etc.

Detailed explanation-3: -With a hash table, you can access objects by the key, so this structure is high-speed for lookups. Hash tables are faster than the arrays for lookups.

Detailed explanation-4: -Data structures where data elements are not arranged sequentially or linearly are called non-linear data structures. In a non-linear data structure, single level is not involved. Therefore, we can’t traverse all the elements in single run only.
