Name
Which of the following is not a limitation of binary search algorithm?
Must use a sorted array
There must be a mechanism to access middle element directly
requirement of sorted array is expensive when a lot of insertion and deletions are needed
binary search algorithm is not efficient when the data elements more than 1500.
The worst-case occur in linear search algorithm when
Item is somewhere in the middle of the array
. Item is not in the array at all
Item is the last element in the array
Item is the last element in the array or item is not there at all
The Average case occurs in the linear search algorithm
When the item is the last element in the array
When the item is somewhere in the middle of the array
When the item is not the array at all
Item is the last element in the array or item is not there at all

Binary Search
Linear Search
Linear Search
Hashing
Which of the following is not an in-place sorting algorithm?
Bubble Sort
Heap Sort
Quick Sort
Merge Sort
A sorting technique is called stable if it
Takes O(n log n) times
Maintains the relative order of occurrence of non-distinct elements
Uses divide-and-conquer paradigm
Takes O(n) space
Select the appropriate code that performs bubble sort.

                        arr[k] = arr[k+1];
                        arr[k+1] = temp;
                  }
