Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which structure is a linear collection?
A
Arrays
B
Linked Lists
C
Both
D
Neither
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The array is the linear data structure that is a collection of similar data items stored at contiguous memory locations. The elements of the array are stored in one memory block for the entire array.

Detailed explanation-2: -Stacks, Queues, Arrays, and Linked lists are all examples of linear data structures.

Detailed explanation-3: -Data structure where data elements are arranged sequentially or linearly where each and every element is attached to its previous and next adjacent is called a linear data structure. In linear data structure, single level is involved. Therefore, we can traverse all the elements in single run only.

Detailed explanation-4: -An array is a linear data structure that collects elements of the same data type and stores them in contiguous and adjacent memory locations. Arrays work on an index system starting from 0 to (n-1), where n is the size of the array.
