Here we will see the threaded binary tree data structure. We know that the binary tree nodes may have at most two children. But if they have only one children, or no children, the link part in the linked list representation remains null. Using threaded binary tree representation, we can reuse that empty links by making some threads.If one node has some vacant left or right child area, that will be used as thread. There are two types of threaded binary tree. The single threaded tree or fully threaded binary tree.For fully threaded binary tree, each node has five fields. ... Read More

In this section we will see the generalized lists. The generalized list can be defined as below −A generalized list L is a finite sequence of n elements (n ≥ 0). The element ei is either an atom (single element) or another generalized list. The elements ei that are not atoms, they will be sub-list of L. Suppose L is ((A, B, C), ((D, E), F), G). Here L has three elements sub-list (A, B, C), sub-list ((D, E), F), and atom G. Again sub-list ((D, E), F) has two elements one sub-list (D, E) and atom F.In C++, we ... Read More
Circular Linked List is a variation of Linked list in which the first element points to the last element and the last element points to the first element. Both Singly Linked List and Doubly Linked List can be made into a circular linked list.In doubly linked list, the next pointer of the last node points to the first node and the previous pointer of the first node points to the last node making the circular in both directions.As per the above illustration, following are the important points to be considered.The last link's next points to the first link of the ...

In this section we will see what is the sparse matrix and how we can represent them in memory. So a matrix will be a sparse matrix if most of the elements of it is 0. Another definition is, a matrix with a maximum of 1/3 non-zero elements (roughly 30% of m x n) is known as sparse matrix.We use matrices in computers memory to do some operations in an efficient way. But if the matrices are sparse in nature, it may help us to do operations efficiently, but it will take larger space in memory. That spaces have no ... Read More
Here we will see the Irregular arrays. Before discussing the irregular arrays, we have to know what are regular arrays. The regular arrays are that kind of arrays, where the number of columns in each row is same. Or in other words, when each row is holding same number of elements, then that is regular arrays. The following representation is a regular array.From the definition of regular array, we can understand what are the irregular arrays. So in irregular arrays, each row may or may not contain same number of elements. This kind of irregular arrays can also be represented ... Read More
In this section we will see another representation of multidimensional arrays. Here we will see the Array of Arrays representation. In this form, we have an array, that is holding the starting addresses of multiple arrays. The representation will be look like this.This is a two-dimensional array x of size [7 x 8]. Each row is represented as a single onedimensional array. The initial array is holding the addresses of these single arrays. They are array of addresses, so we can say that, it is an array of pointers. Each pointer is holding addresses of another arrays.create this kind of ... Read More
As we know the arrays are homogeneous by definition. So we have to put data of same type in an array. But if we want to store data of different type, then what will be the trick? In C like old languages, we can use unions to artificially coalesce the different types into one type. Then we can define an array on this new type. Here the kind of object that an array element actually contains is determined by a tag. Let us see one structure like this −struct Vehicle{ int id; union { Bus ... Read More
Sometimes we create array using dynamic memory allocation. If the array is allocated using dynamic memory allocation technique, we can double the size of array by performing some operations.Suppose initial array size was 5.Array01234Element 1Element 2Element 3Element 4Element 5After array doubling, the size is −0123456789Element 1Element 2Element 3Element 4Element 5Element 6Element 7Element 8Element 9Element 10To double the size of array arr of size n, arr[0…n-1]. At first we have to create one new array of size say m. Then copy n elements from arr to the new array. Finally change the value of arr to point to the new array.To ... Read More
Here we will see some basic concepts of the sorted arrays. The arrays are homogeneous data structure to hold same kind of data in some consecutive memory locations. Sometimes we need to sort the elements to use them. Other than that we can make a sorted array. That will always be sorted.In this case we will see the algorithms for insert and delete into sorted array. If we insert some element in it, it will automatically be placed at sorted position. So we do not need to sort it again after insertion. When we delete, it will delete the element, ... Read More
