    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    A top to bottom relationship among the items in a database is established by a

    • A.

      Hierarchical schema

    • B.

      Network Schema

    • C.

      Relational Schema

    • D.

      Both (A) and (B)

    • E.

      Both (B) and (C)

    Correct Answer
    A. Hierarchical schema
    Explanation
    A hierarchical schema is a database structure where the data is organized in a tree-like structure, with a top-to-bottom relationship among the items. This means that each item has only one parent and can have multiple children. This type of schema is commonly used in systems where data has a clear parent-child relationship, such as organizational structures or file systems. Network schema, on the other hand, allows for a more complex relationship among items, with each item being able to have multiple parents and children. Relational schema, on the other hand, is a database structure where data is organized into tables with relationships established through keys. Therefore, the correct answer is hierarchical schema as it establishes a top-to-bottom relationship among the items in a database.

    The average number of key comparisons done in a successful sequential search in a list of length “n” is

    • A.

      Log n

    • B.

      (n-1)/2

    • C.

      N/2

    • D.

      (n+1)/2

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    D. (n+1)/2
    Explanation
    The average number of key comparisons done in a successful sequential search in a list of length "n" is (n+1)/2. This is because in a sequential search, each element in the list is compared with the key until a match is found. On average, the key is expected to be found in the middle of the list, so the number of comparisons needed would be approximately half of the length of the list. Adding 1 to account for the final comparison gives us the average number of comparisons as (n+1)/2.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    Each node in a linked list must contain at least:

    • A.

      Three fields

    • B.

      Five fields

    • C.

      Four fields

    • D.

      Two Fields

    • E.

      One Field

    Correct Answer
    D. Two Fields
    Explanation
    In a linked list, each node stores two fields: one for the data and one for the reference to the next node in the list. These two fields are essential for maintaining the structure and connectivity of the linked list. The data field holds the actual value or information that the node is intended to store, while the reference field points to the next node in the list, allowing traversal through the linked list. Having only one field would not be sufficient to create a linked list, and having more than two fields would be unnecessary for the basic functionality of a linked list.

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    The order of the binary search algorithm is

    • A.

      N

    • B.

      N^2

    • C.

      Nlog(n)

    • D.

      Log(n)

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    D. Log(n)
    Explanation
    The order of the binary search algorithm is logarithmic (log(n)). This is because in each step of the algorithm, the search space is divided in half. As a result, the algorithm can quickly narrow down the search range until it finds the desired element or determines that it does not exist. This logarithmic time complexity makes binary search efficient, especially for large datasets, as it significantly reduces the number of comparisons needed to find the target element.

    Rate this question:

  • 20. 

    Which of the following is useful in implementing quick sort using recursion?

    • A.

      Stack

    • B.

      Set

    • C.

      List

    • D.

      Queue

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    A. Stack
    Explanation
    Stack is useful in implementing quick sort using recursion because it follows the Last In First Out (LIFO) principle. In quick sort, the partitioning step involves selecting a pivot element and rearranging the array such that all elements smaller than the pivot are placed before it, and all elements greater than the pivot are placed after it. This partitioning process is performed recursively on the sub-arrays formed before and after the pivot. Using a stack allows us to keep track of the sub-arrays that need to be processed, ensuring that the recursive calls are made in the correct order and preventing stack overflow.

    • B.

      Full duplex

    • C.

      Half duplex

    • D.

      Both (a) and (b)

    • E.

      Both (b) and (c)

    Correct Answer
    B. Full duplex
    Explanation
    Full duplex is the correct answer because it is a data communication method that allows data to be transmitted simultaneously in both directions over a serial communication link. In full duplex, data can be sent and received at the same time, enabling faster and more efficient communication. This is different from simplex, where data can only be transmitted in one direction, and half duplex, where data can be transmitted in both directions but not simultaneously. Both (a) and (b) and both (b) and (c) are incorrect options as they do not accurately describe the method used to transmit data over a serial communication link.

    How many hosts are attached to each of the local area network at your site?

    • A.

      128

    • B.

      256

    • C.

      254

    • D.

      64

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    C. 254
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 254 because in a local area network, the number of hosts that can be attached is determined by the available IP addresses in the network's subnet. In a typical IPv4 subnet, the total number of usable IP addresses is 2^(number of bits in the host portion of the IP address) - 2. Since a typical subnet has 8 bits for the host portion, the calculation would be 2^8 - 2, which equals 256 - 2 = 254. Therefore, each local area network at the site can have 254 hosts attached.

    Rate this question:

  • 37. 

    Pointer is used in

    • A.

      Direct Addressing

    • B.

      Indirect Addressing

    • C.

      Indexed mode

    • D.

      Immediate Addressing

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    B. Indirect Addressing
    Explanation
    Indirect addressing is a method of accessing data in which the address of the data is stored in a pointer variable. Instead of directly accessing the data, the pointer is used to indirectly access the data. This allows for more flexibility and dynamic memory allocation as the pointer can be updated to point to different memory locations. In contrast, direct addressing refers to directly accessing data using its memory address. Indexed mode and immediate addressing are different addressing modes that are not related to the use of pointers.

      From the innermost loop or switch

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    C. From the loops and switches
    Explanation
    The break statement in programming is used to exit a loop or switch statement. In this case, the correct answer is "From the loops and switches", which means that the break statement can cause an exit from both loops and switch statements. This means that when a break statement is encountered within a loop or switch, the program will immediately exit out of the loop or switch and continue with the next line of code outside of it.

    The term push and pop is related to the

    • A.

      Array

    • B.

      Lists

    • C.

      Stacks

    • D.

      All of the above

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    C. Stacks
    Explanation
    The term push and pop is related to stacks. In a stack data structure, the push operation adds an element to the top of the stack, while the pop operation removes the topmost element from the stack. This follows the Last-In-First-Out (LIFO) principle, where the last element pushed onto the stack is the first one to be popped off. Arrays and ArrayLists can also perform push and pop operations, but they are not specifically designed for it like stacks are. Therefore, the correct answer is Stacks.

    Array can be passed in a functions in C language through

    • A.

      ‘Call by value’ only

    • B.

      ‘Call by reference’ only

    • C.

      Both (1) & (2)

    • D.

      Call by preference

    • E.

      None of these

    Correct Answer
    B. ‘Call by reference’ only
    Explanation
    In C language, arrays can only be passed to functions using 'Call by reference'. This means that when an array is passed to a function, the function receives a reference to the original array in memory, allowing it to modify the original array. This is different from 'Call by value', where a copy of the array would be passed to the function, and any modifications made to the array within the function would not affect the original array. Therefore, the correct answer is 'Call by reference' only.
