Operations on data structures

OPERATIONS ON DATA STRUCTURES
This section discusses the different operations that can be execute on the different data structures before mentioned.
Traversing It means to process each data item exactly once so that it can be processed. For example, to print the names of all the employees in a office.
Searching It is used to detect the location of one or more data items that satisfy the given constraint. Such a data item may or may not be present in the given group of data items. For example, to find the names of all the students who secured 100 marks in mathematics.
Inserting It is used to add new data items to the given list of data items. For example, to add the details of a new student who has lately joined the course.
Deleting It means to delete a particular data item from the given collection of data items. For example, to delete the name of a employee who has left the office.
Sorting Data items can be ordered in some order like ascending order or descending order depending on the type of application. For example, arranging the names of students in a class in an alphabetical order, or calculating the top three winners by arranging the participants’ scores in descending order and then extracting the top three.
Merging Lists of two sorted data items can be joined to form a single list of sorted data items.
Many a time, two or more operations are applied at the same time in a given situation. For example, if we want to delete the details of a student whose name is X, then we first have to search the list of students to find whether the record of X exists or not and if it exists then at which location, so that the details can be deleted from that particular location.

Graphing Variation

Graphing variation is an essential part of data science. It is a process of displaying the differences and fluctuations in data sets, which is crucial for understanding the data and deriving meaningful insights. Graphing variation provides a visual representation of the data, making it easier to identify trends, patterns, and outliers. In this blog post, we will explore the importance of graphing variation in data science and some of the popular graphing techniques used in data analysis. Why is graphing variation important in data science? Graphing variation is important in data science for several reasons. Firstly, it allows us to identify trends and patterns in the data. These patterns may not be apparent in the raw data, but when visualized, they become more apparent. Secondly, graphing variation helps to identify outliers, which are data points that are significantly different from the other data points. Outliers can be important in some cases, and graphing variation can help us to...

C Program Important points

Points to Remember • C was developed in the early 1970s by Dennis Ritchie at Bell Laboratories. • Every word in a C program is either an identifier or a keyword. Identifiers are the names given to program elements such as variables and functions. Keywords are reserved words which cannot be used  as identifiers. • C provides four basic data types: char, int, float, and double. • A variable is defined as a meaningful name given to a data storage location in computer memory.  • Standard library function scanf() is used to input data in a specified format.printf()function is used to output data of different types in a specified format. • C supports different types of operators which can be classified into following categories: arithmetic, relational, equality, logical, unary, conditional, bitwise, assignment, comma, and sizeof operators. • Modulus operator (%) can only be applied on integer operands, and not on float or double operands.  • Equality operators have lowe...
