Q

7.1 ArrayList

How does an ArrayList look like?

A

import java.util.ArrayList;

ArrayList list = new ArrayList();

  • Need import java.util.ArrayList; to use array list
  • E represents the data type that is used
  • declaration type must match the initialization type
  • Can only store objects, so must use the Integer and Double class
  • ArrayList () creates an empty ArrayList
  • Dont need to specify the length of the arrayList

What is one of the primary differences between an ArrayList and an Array?

  1. ArrayLists have a fixed number of values, while Arrays can change in size.
  2. Arrays have a fixed number of values, while ArrayLists can change in size.
  3. Arrays are only able to store objects, while ArrayLists can store primitive and object values.

Q

7.1 ArrayList

True or False:

Attempting to add an int or double primitive value to an ArrayList will result in an error.

A

False

When an int or double value is added to an ArrayList, it is automatically converted to its Wrapper class, and when it is accessed, is transformed back into its primitive value.

7.3 Traversing ArrayList

How do you traverse an ArrayList?

A

ArrayList scores = new ArrayLists();

for(int i = 0; i < scores.size(); i++)

{

//This prints out the ith element System.out.println(scores.get(i));

}

  • i iterates from 0 to size()

7.3 Traversing ArrayList

Why should you not use enhanced for loops to remove elements from an ArrayList?

A

Trying to remove() with an enhanced for loop will often result in a ConcurrentModificationException

Error occurs when objects are being modified while they are being iterated on

Generally speaking, we should not iterate with enhanced for loops when adding or removing items

7.3 Traversing ArrayList

Will this method correctly traverse an ArrayList and remove all multiples of 3?

public void remove3s(ArrayList array)

{

int counter = 0;

while(counter < array.size())

{

if(array.get(counter) %3 == 0)

{

array.remove(counter);

counter++;

}

else

{

counter++;

}

}

}

  1. Yes, this method is written correctly, and will remove all multiples of 3 in an ArrayList.
  2. No, this method is not written correctly, as the counter in the if statement will skip the next value, as the values will shift down in the ArrayList.
  3. No, this method is not written correctly, as the counter in the else statement will skip the next value, as the values will shift down in the ArrayList.
  4. No, this method will not work because the methods used to access the ArrayList are incorrect.

How does Linear Search work?

  1. Linear Search traverses an array until the desired value is found, or until the end of the array.
  2. Linear Search traverses an array from the last value to the first value until the desired value is found.
  3. Linear Search uses a while loop to traverse an array for the desired value, or until the end of the array.
  4. Linear Search searches for desired values by searching the the next highest value in an array, and seeing if that is the desired value.
A
  1. Linear Search traverses an array until the desired value is found, or until the end of the array

Q

7.6 Sorting

What is sorting and its purpose?

How many types are there?

A
  • Data sets grow, they can be harder to manage and sort through!
  • When data is disorganized, it can be hard to find values easily - sorting makes it easier to manage

Sorting Algorithms:

Types: (1) Selection Sort and (2) Insertion Sort

37
Q

7.6 Sorting

What are selection sorting and its steps?

A

Sorts an array by repeatedly finding the minimum value, and moving it to the front of the array

Steps:

  1. Pick current index
  2. Find minimum in the rest of the line
  3. Swap to put the minimum in the correct position
38
Q

7.6 Sorting

Pseudocode for Selection Sort

A
  1. traverse each index up to the second to the last element
    1. Find the minimum in the rest of the line
      1. set the current index to minimum
      2. traverse from current index to end of list
        1. if index < current index, index is minimum
  2. Swap the index and minIndex
    1. Create temporary variable to store current index value
    2. Make current index value that minIndex value
    3. Make minIndex value the temporary variable value
39
Q

7.6 Sorting

What is the structure for selection sorting?

40
Q

7.6 Sorting

How many comparisons will the selection sort algorithm make on an array of 8 elements?

A

28

= 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1

41
Q

7.6 Sorting

How does Selection Sort work to sort an array?

  1. Selection Sort swaps the first value of an array with the last index of an array, then swaps the second value in an array with the second to last value, until all values have swapped places.
  2. Selection Sort iterates through each index and swaps the current index with the minimum value that exists in the indices greater than the current index.
  3. Selection Sort sets the first index as sorted, and shifts each minimum value into the correct position by finding the lowest value on the sorted side of the array at indices lower than the current index.
  4. Selection Sort finds the lowest value in an array and shifts all elements to the right of that value.
A
  1. Selection Sort iterates through each index and swaps the current index with the minimum value that exists in the indices greater than the current index
42
Q

7.6 Sorting

What is Insertion Sort?

A

Sorts an array by sorting each element compared to the element already sorted to their left

43
Q

7.6 Sorting

What is the steps for Insertion Sort?

A
  1. Mark first element as sorted
  2. Choose the next unsorted element
  3. Shift unsorted element into the correct position in sorted part of the list
  4. Now left part of list is sorted
  5. Choose the next unsorted element
  6. Shift unsorted element into correct position in sorted part of list
44
Q

7.6 Sorting

What is the pseudocode for selection sort?

A
  1. Traverse each element starting from index 1
  2. Traverse sorted elements to find current element position
  3. Shift sorted elements to place current element
45
Q

7.6 Sorting

What is the structure for Insertion Sort?

46
Q

7.6 Sorting

What is the difference between Insertion vs. Selection Sort and when should you use each?

A

The efficiency of both depends on how sorted the list order is at the start

Use Statement Execution Count can be used to compare the efficiency of sorting algorithms

array1: {0, 1, 2, 4, 3}

  • When the list is almost sorted, Insertion Sort has a lower execution count than Selection short - because the while loop doesn’t execute

array2: {4, 3, 2, 1, 0}

  • When the list is in reversed order, Selection Sort has a lower execution count because it only needs to swap two values, while Insertion Sort has to shift every single value
47
Q

7.6 Sorting

When is it more appropriate to use Insertion Sort than Selection Sort?

  1. When the array is in reverse order.
  2. There is no difference in the speed of either sorting method.
  3. When the array is already slightly sorted.
  4. Selection sort is always faster than Insertion sort.
A
  1. When the array is already slightly sorted
48
Q

7.6 Sorting

How does insertion sort work to sort an array?

  1. Insertion Sort finds the lowest value in an array and shifts all elements to the right of that value.
  2. Insertion Sort iterates through each index and swaps the current index with the minimum value that exists in the indices greater than the current index.
  3. Insertion Sort sets the first index as sorted, and shifts each subsequent value into the correct position by finding the lowest value on the sorted side of the array at indices lower than the current index.
  4. Insertion Sort swaps the first value of an array with the last index of an array, then swaps the second value in an array with the second to last value, until all values have swapped places.
A
  1. Insertion Sort sets the first index as sorted, and shifts each subsequent value into the correct position by finding the lowest value on the sorted side of the array at indices lower than the current index

Q

7.6 Sorting
