1(a)What is a sparse matrix?2
1(b)How do we represent the sparse matrixJ to save space?4
1(c)Write a program to reverse an array.4
2(a)Given a function roll(), which returns an unpredictable outcome of the rolling a die. It can return 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. Your task is to roll a die n times. Write a program to determine the frequencies of the outcome :
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The example frequencies of the faces for N = 10000 are given below:

Face 1: 1667
Face 2: 1660
Face 3: 1732
Face 4: 1697
Face 5: 1586
Face 6: 1658

Note: Assume roll() as a library function, so do not write the roll() function.
Moreover, your solution should not take more than O(n) time complexity.

2(b)Given a singly linked list with N nodes. Write a program to reverse the given singly linked list.5
3(a)What is the output of the following recursive function?

#include <stdio.h>
void foo(int n)
{
ย ย if(n>=1)
ย ย {
ย ย ย ย foo(n-1);
ย ย ย ย printf("%d\t",n);
ย ย ย ย foo(n-1);
ย ย }
}
int main()
{
ย ย foo(4);
ย ย return 0;
}

3(b)Derive the time and space complexity of the above program.5
4(a)Given the functions stack *create(int size), void push(stack *st), int pop(stack *st), int peek(stack *st), int isEmpty(stack *st). Write a program to implement a queue with the help of two stacks. Define the functions of the queue - enQueue() and deQueue() for the int data type using the given functions of stack.4 + 4
4(b)What is the worst-case time complexity of each enQueue() and deQueue() function?5
5(a)Write a program to implement inorder and preorder binary tree traversal without using recursion.5
5(b)Construct a binary tree from inorder and preorder tree traversal where the inorder and preorder traversal are given as follows:
Preorder: 20, 15, 10, 18, 17, 30, 25, 40, 35, 38, 50
Inorder: 10, 15, 17, 18, 20, 25, 30, 35, 38, 40, 50

6(b)Solve the following
recurrence relation: T(n) = T(9n/10) + T(n/10) + O(n)

7(a)Given a circular linked list containing int data type. Write a program to display the data of the circular linked list.5
7(b)Write a program to insert at Kth position in the doubly linked list.5
8(a)Write a program to multiply two matrices.5
8(b)Construct the AVL Tree for the given sequence of nodes:
Nodes: 21, 26, 30, 9, 4, 14, 28, 18, 15, 10, 2, 3, 7.
Analyze the time and space complexity of AVL Tree operations.
