Consider a binary max-heap implemented using an array.
Which one of the following array represents a binary max-heap?

1. $\left\{25,12,16,13,10,8,14\right\}$
2. $\left\{25,14,13,16,10,8,12\right\}$
3. $\left\{25,14,16,13,10,8,12\right\}$
4. $\left\{25,14,12,13,10,8,16\right\}$

The binary max-Heap looks like this :

Taking the given array as level order traversal, we can build binary tree.

(A)  13 comes as child of 12, which is not allowed in a binary max-heap

(B) 16 comes as child of 14 violating max-heap property

(C) is a valid binary max-heap as all children are smaller than their parent

(D) 16 comes as child of 12, violating max-heap property

option c is right

Consider a binary max-heap implemented using an array. What is the content of the array after two delete operations on $\left\{25,14,16,13,10,8,12\right\}$ $\left\{14,13,12,10, 8\right\}$ $\left\{14,12,13,8,10\right\}$ $\left\{14,13,8,12,10\right\}$ $\left\{14,13,12,8,10\right\}$
What is the maximum height of any AVL-tree with $7$ nodes? Assume that the height of a tree with a single node is $0$. $2$ $3$ $4$ $5$
The keys $12, 18, 13, 2, 3, 23, 5$ and $15$ are inserted into an initially empty hash table of length $10$ using open addressing with hash function $h(k) = k \mod 10$ ...
A hard disk has $63$ sectors per track, $10$ platters each with $2$ recording surfaces and $1000$ cylinders. The address of a sector is given as a triple $\langle c, h, s \rangle$, where $c$ is the cylinder number, $h$ is the surface number and $s$ is the sector number. Thus, the ... is $\langle 0, 15, 31 \rangle$ $\langle 0, 16, 30 \rangle$ $\langle 0, 16, 31 \rangle$ $\langle 0, 17, 31 \rangle$
