DATA STRUCTURE 1. Question of Binary search tree to find node when 43 will not be found Ans= Every data set was having 43 as its last element. 2 . To find complexity of Linked li st .Singly circular ordered list is there if m elements a re to be inserted what will be the complexity of time. i. O(m*n). ii. O(m*(m+n)). iii. O((m+n)*log(m+n)) 3. Adjacency matrix question to find shortest path Ans=7. ABCDE A0m Bm022m C05 D06 E0 Where m=infinity, Find shortest path from B to E. 4. Forest & Tree question to fin d total no of nodes 1 n-(p+2) ANS 2. n-p+2. 3. n-p. etc same question is in Sahni I think go thru it. 5. Infix to Postfix expression Of A+B*(C+D)/E+F {ANS=ABCD+*E/+F+ } question is not confirm but pattern is of same type DBMS 1. Query from Navathe Select fname,lname from employee where eno in (select eno from works-on where pno=(select * from project)); what is the output . 2. A query is given eg. Sel ect name from employee where salary=salary. They ask wh ether query runs or not so just check it. Ans=Query Invalid 3. What is the main use of B & B+ trees i n database Ans= For queries 4. question on Left outer Join & Full outer Join. For both Variables are given & in options relationship is given to find whichever have greater tuples. 5. To save space which option is better . Options are i. Write all j oin operation than select than project. ii. Write all join operation than project than select. iii. Write all j oin operation in between select & project. OS 1. Using LRU how many page faults ar e generated. 20 pages are there Ans=6 page faul t 2. match the column Options i. semaphore i ii. Monitor ii iii. Deadlock iii iv. Mutual Exclusion iv. Iv 3. One question on fil e locking. Scenario is given Ans 1. Provide indefinite locking 4. Prevent intermediate file Access. (Both 1 & 2) 5.

2. 3. 4. 5.
(1-p to the power n) ANS (not sure) 1-np. n*p A critical section is Ans = a set of in struction which is shared by many process.
General 1. Probability to find digits which not contain 7 between 100 to 999 Ans=18/25 2. Packet switching & Ci rcuit Switching some diff are there Ans= CS take more time to established circuit. 3. A file have 3 bits for char such type of question Ans= 27000 or 24000(Confused) 4. Hash table question Ans=2.

Get string from KB of an y length & print letters coming maximum time first than second largest«.. i.e in descending order. Their requirement: They want that u ma ke this program thru linked list if u do that than it i s well n good. Must allocate memory dynamically. Use proper assumptions & Comments everywhere this will a dd more advantage .use in all programs. Output look like if u enter string aababbbcba b 5 times a 4 times c 1 times just like that Hint: Make array of 256 chars. Now Scan the string pick each char a nd according to it¶s acsii value increment that index value at last u have an array which have counter for each alphabet. Sort this array & display. 2 . Sparse Matrix Addition. A structure of sparse matrix is given. You have to create a function sparseadd to add 2 sparse matrices Structure is some how like Struct Sparsematrix { int row ;
int col ; int val; SparseMatrix *next; } You have to made function to add two sparse matrices. Function signature like SparseMatrix SparseAdd(SparseMatrix s1,SparseMatrix s2) Interview
