1 Review for Exam 1 Topics covered: For each of these data structures
Asymptotic analysis Lists and list implementations Stacks and queues General trees, binary trees BST For each of these data structures Basic idea of data structure and operations Be able to work out small example problems Advantages and limitations Asymptotic time performance of their operations Comparison between different implementations

2 Asymptotic analysis Best/Worst/Average performance (time and space)
Big-O notation and properties Definition (constants c and n0) Lower order terms, constant coefficients Sum rule, product rule (be careful) Proofs Growth rates of commonly used functions Constant/logarithm/polynomial/exponential L’Hospital’s rule

3 Lists Stacks and queues List ADT.
Basic operations and their time performance (implemen-tation dependent) List iterators. List implementation Array Linked list Stacks and queues ADT and operations (and their time performance) Implementation: Adaptor How this design pattern works Pros and cons

4 General tree Binary trees Definition Internal and external nodes
Height and depth, path length Tree storage methods and their nodes Binary trees Full, complete and perfect binary trees and their properties 4 different orders of tree traversals

5 BST Definition Basic operations and their implementations
Find/contains, findMin, findMax insert, remove, recursive implementations Time performance of these operations Problems with unbalanced BST (degeneration)

6 Types of questions: Similar to those of the supplementary questions on the web (under Practice Exercises) Definitions Short questions Coding (some may require using operations already defined in the class, mostly in pseudo code) Applying operations to specific example problems Proofs
