Preface
Main motto of any laboratory/practical/field work is for enhancing required skills as well as
creating ability amongst students to solve real time problem by developing relevant competencies
in psychomotor domain. By keeping in view, GTU has designed competency focused outcome-
based curriculum for engineering degree programs where sufficient weightage is given to
practical work. It shows importance of enhancement of skills amongst the students and it pays
attention to utilize every second of time allotted for practical amongst students, instructors and
faculty members to achieve relevant outcomes by performing the experiments rather than having
merely study type experiments. It is must for effective implementation of competency focused
outcome-based curriculum that every practical is keenly designed to serve as a tool to develop
and enhance relevant competency required by the various industry among every student. These
psychomotor skills are very difficult to develop through traditional chalk and board content
delivery method in the classroom. Accordingly, this lab manual is designed to focus on the
industry defined relevant outcomes, rather than old practice of conducting practical to prove
concept and theory.
By using this lab manual students can go through the relevant theory and procedure in advance
before the actual performance which creates an interest and students can have basic idea prior to
performance. This in turn enhances pre-determined outcomes amongst students. Each experiment
in this manual begins with competency, industry relevant skills, course outcomes as well as
practical outcomes (objectives). The students will also achieve safety and necessary precautions
to be taken while performing practical.
This manual also provides guidelines to faculty members to facilitate student centric lab activities
through each experiment by arranging and managing necessary resources in order that the
students follow the procedures with required safety and necessary precautions to achieve the
outcomes. It also gives an idea that how students will be assessed by providing rubrics.
Data Structures is a core course in all computer science undergraduate curricula. The course is
the basis for understanding several data structures and also algorithms that operate on them. The
course forms the foundation for almost all computer science subjects: compilers, operating
systems, databases, AI and software engineering. The course comes with a lab in most universities
in India. The associated lab in university curricula focuses on implementation of algorithms
operating on the data structures, i.e., coding programs on the data structures and algorithms.

AIM : Classification of Data Structure and Stack
Theory:
Data Structure
Data structures are a fundamental concept in computer science that enable efficient storage and
manipulation of data. They are used to organize and store data in a manner that allows for optimal
performance of algorithms. The selection of a suitable data structure begins with the choice of an
abstract data type, which defines the operations that can be performed on the data. Well-designed
data structures can perform a wide range of critical operations while using minimal resources such
as execution time and memory space. In essence, data structure introduction refers to the
arrangement of data in a computer's memory in a way that enables rapid access by the processor for
the required calculations.
Stack
A stack is a data structure that follows the last-in first-out (LIFO) principle, meaning that objects
are inserted and removed from the container in a particular order. In pushdown stacks, only two
Page No
Data Structure (3130702) Enrollment No
operations are allowed: pushing an item onto the stack, and popping an item off the top of the stack.
Access to the stack is limited, as elements can only be added and removed from the top. When an
item is pushed onto the stack, it becomes the new top item. Conversely, when an item is popped off
the stack, it is removed from the top.
To illustrate this concept, consider a stack of books. Just as you can only remove the top book, you
can only add a new book to the top of the stack. A stack can also have a limited capacity. If the
stack is already full and there is no space to add a new item, it is said to be in an overflow state. On
the other hand, if the stack is empty and an item is removed, it is in an underflow state, meaning
that no items are present in the stack to be removed.
A stack is an abstract data structure that operates on the LIFO principle, where the last item added
is the first item to be removed. Items can be inserted and deleted at one end called the top, creating
a structure that resembles a closed tube on one side.

1. Primitive data structures: Primitive data structures are simple data structures
constructed using the standard data types of a computer language. Examples of primitive
data structures include variables, arrays, pointers, structures, unions, and more. These
structures are used to build more complex data structures
Linear data structures are arranged as a continuous set of data elements in the memory
and can be constructed using array data types. In linear data structures, the adjacency
relationship between data elements is maintained.
✓ Add an element
✓ Delete an element
✓ Traverse
✓ Sort the list of elements
✓ Search for a data element

3.2 Write a program to implement stack using linked list
3.3 Write a program to implement queue using linked list.
Theory:
A linked list is a type of data structure that stores a collection of non-sequential data items. Unlike
arrays, linked lists are dynamic and their size can be changed during program execution. Each data
item in a linked list has a pointer that holds the memory address of the next data item in the list. The
data items in a linked list may not be stored in consecutive memory locations, but their pointers
make it easy to access them in any order.
A singly linked list, also known as a linear linked list, is a type of linked list in which all nodes are
connected together sequentially. Each node in a singly linked list contains data and a pointer to the
next node. The last node's pointer is set to null. The limitation of a singly linked list is that it can
only be traversed in one direction, in a forward direction.

4.1 Write a program to implement following operations on the doubly linked list.
(a) Insert a node at the front of the linked list.
(b) Insert a node at the end of the linked list.
(c) Delete a last node of the linked list.
(d) Delete a node before specified position.
Theory:
A doubly linked list is a data structure where each node contains data and two pointers - one to point
to the previous node (LPTR) and another to point to the next node (RPTR). The main advantage of
a doubly linked list is that we can traverse it in any direction, either forward or backward. Another
advantage is that we can delete a node with ease since we have pointers to both the previous and
next nodes. In contrast, a node on a singly linked list cannot be removed unless we have a pointer
to its predecessor. However, the drawback of a doubly linked list is that it requires more memory
than a singly linked list since we need an extra pointer to point to the previous node. In the image,
L and R denote the leftmost and rightmost nodes in the list, respectively. The left link of the L node
and the right link of the R node are both NULL, indicating the end of the list for each direction.

(c) Delete a first node of the linked list.

5.2 Identify widely used application which uses linked list for implementation of its
important feature.
Theory:
A circular linked list is similar to a singly linked list, except that the last node points to the first
node, creating a circular arrangement of nodes. Unlike a singly linked list, it does not contain null
pointers. Traversal can only be done in one direction, i.e., the forward direction. The biggest
advantage of a circular linked list is that it saves time when we want to go from the last node to the
first node because it directly points to the first node. A good example of an application where a
circular linked list can be used is a time-sharing problem that can be solved by the operating system.

AIM : Graph
Theory:
Graph:
A graph G can be defined as a non-empty set of vertices or nodes (V) and a set of edges (E) that
represents the relationship or connection between those nodes. The edges can be defined as a
mapping from E to pairs of elements of V. A graph can be represented as G = (V, E), where V
represents the set of nodes and E represents the set of edges. Each edge of the graph G can be
associated with a pair of nodes of the graph. If an edge X belongs to E and is associated with a pair
of nodes (u, v), where u and v belong to V, then we say that edge X connects node u and node v.
DFS is a graph traversal algorithm that is similar to the preorder traversal of a tree. The traversal
can start from any vertex vi of the graph. Initially, the vertex vi is visited, and then all the adjacent
vertices to vi are traversed recursively using DFS. As a graph can have cycles, we need to avoid
revisiting a node. To achieve this, when a vertex V is visited, it is marked as visited and should not
be selected for traversal again.

• Breadth First Search (BFS) starts from a vertex v0 and marks it as visited. Then, all the
vertices adjacent to v0 are visited next.
• Let the vertices adjacent to v0 be v1, v2, v3, and v4. These vertices are marked as visited.
• All unvisited vertices adjacent to v1, v2, v3, and v4 are visited next.
• The above process continues until all vertices are visited.
• The algorithm for BFS maintains a list of vertices that have been visited but not explored
for adjacent vertices. This list is stored in a queue.
• The queue initially contains the starting vertex.
• In each iteration, a vertex is removed from the queue, and its adjacent vertices, which have
not been visited yet, are added to the queue.
• The algorithm terminates when the queue becomes empty.

AIM : Searching
Theory:
Linear/Sequential Search
• Linear search, also known as sequential search, is a technique used in computer science to
find a specific value in a list by sequentially checking each of its elements one at a time until
the desired one is found.
• It is the simplest search algorithm and a form of brute-force search. Its worst-case cost is
proportional to the number of elements in the list.
Binary Search
• If we have an array that is sorted, we can use a much more efficient algorithm called Binary
Search.
• In Binary Search, we divide the array into two equal halves and compare the middle element
with the search element.
• If the middle element is equal to the search element, we have found the element and return
its index; otherwise, if the middle element is less than the search element, we look at the
right part of the array, and if the middle element is greater than the search element, we

9.3 Write a program to implement Bubble Sort
9.4 Identify widely used applications which use Sorting technique for implementation
of its important feature.
Theory:
Bubble sort
Bubble sort, also known as sinking sort, is a comparison-based sorting algorithm. It works by
repeatedly scanning through the list to be sorted, comparing adjacent elements and swapping them
if they are not in the correct order. In each pass through the list, the largest element bubbles up to
the top. The algorithm repeats these processes until no more swaps are needed, indicating that the
list is sorted. Although it is simple to understand and implement, bubble sort has a worst-case and
average time complexity of O(n^2), making it too slow for large inputs. Insertion sort is a more
efficient alternative for small lists.
Merge Sort
• The merge sort algorithm is based on the classical divide-and-conquer paradigm. It operates
as follows:
▪ DIVIDE: Partition the n-element sequence to be sorted into two sub sequences of
n/2 elements each.
▪ CONQUER: Sort the two sub sequences recursively using the merge sort.
▪ COMBINE: Merge the two sorted sub sequences of size n/2 each to produce the
sorted sequence consisting of n elements.
Page No
Data Structure (3130702) Enrollment No
Quick Sort
Quicksort is currently the fastest known sorting algorithm and often the most practical choice for
sorting, with an average expected running time of O(n log(n)). Its operation consists of the following
steps:
• Pick an element from the array, known as a pivot.
• Reorder the array so that all elements with values less than the pivot are placed before it,
while all elements with values greater than the pivot come after it (elements with equal
values can go either way). This operation is called partitioning, and at the end of it, the pivot
is in its final position.
• Recursively apply the above steps to the sub-arrays of elements with smaller and greater
values, respectively. Quicksort, like merge sort, is a divide-and-conquer recursive
algorithm.

Theory:
Hashing
Hashing is a method used to map a large number of data items to a smaller table by utilizing a
hashing function. This technique transforms a range of key values into a range of indexes of an
array.There are two different forms of hashing.
1. Open hashing or external hashing: Open or external hashing, allows records to be stored
in unlimited space (could be a hard disk). It places no limitation on the size of the tables.
2. Close hashing or internal hashing: Closed or internal hashing, uses a fixed space for
storage and thus limits the size of hash table.

File
In computing, a file is a group of records, where each record comprises one or more fields that have
the same sequence. Typically, each field has a predetermined length.
