Answers


111.
Answer : (b)
Reason:  Remaining all belongs to divide and conquer paradigm.
112.
Answer : (c)
Reason:  According to the asymptotic notation rules. And this rule is used to apply the limit rule for the omega notated values.
113.
Answer : (d)
Reason:  Because, the leaf nodes can’t have the children.
114.
Answer : (c)
Reason:  Because, we have to calculate all c(i, j )’s, w( i, j)’s and r(i, j)’s for the tree of ‘n’ identifiers.
115.
Answer : (a)
Reason:  As in BFS, all the adjacent nodes are traversed first, before traversing the descendent nodes. And hence a queue is used.
116.
Answer : (c)
Reason:  Because, the simple graph should not contain any loop in the entire graph.
117.
Answer : (e)
Reason:  Here only one loop from one to n is there. And hence it runs for ‘n’ times only.
118.
Answer : (d)
Reason:  As there are three nested loops running from 1 to n in both of the algorithms. And hence it is O(n3)
119.
Answer : (b)
Reason:  According to the limit rules for big Oh notation.
120.
Answer : (a)
Reason:  According to the limit rules for big Oh notation.
