About this MCQ

This Medium Algorithms MCQ checks one syllabus fact.

The question is: “Select the accurate description of Space complexity.”

The accepted answer is B. A measure of the amount of memory an algorithm uses as a function of input size.. Select the accurate description of Space complexity is answered by A measure of the amount of memory an algorithm uses as a function of input size option B Option A An ordering of vertices in a directed acyclic graph such that for every edge the source vertex comes before the destination vertex does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A measure of the amount of memory an algorithm uses as a function of input size Option C An algorithm that uses a degree of randomness as part of its logic to achieve good average-case performance does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A measure.

A. An ordering of vertices in a directed acyclic graph such that for every edge, the source vertex comes before the destination vertex.
Why not A: “An ordering of vertices in a directed acyclic graph such that for every edge, the source vertex comes before the destination vertex.” is not correct. The accepted answer is B.
