About this MCQ
This Hard Data Structures MCQ checks one syllabus fact.
The question is: “Load factor is best defined as which of the following?”
The accepted answer is A. A measure in a hash table calculated as the number of stored elements divided by the number of buckets.. Load factor is best defined as which of the following is answered by A measure in a hash table calculated as the number of stored elements divided by the number of buckets option A Option B A collision resolution technique in hashing that searches sequentially for the next open slot in the table does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete recall of A measure in a hash table calculated as the number of stored elements divided by the number of buckets Option C A matrix in which most of the elements are zero often stored using specialized structures to save memory does not match the stem it is a near-miss used to catch incomplete.
- A. A measure in a hash table calculated as the number of stored elements divided by the number of buckets. ✓
- B. A collision resolution technique in hashing that searches sequentially for the next open slot in the table.
Why not B: “A collision resolution technique in hashing that searches sequentially for the next open slot in the table.” is not correct. The accepted answer is A. A measure in a hash table calculated as the number of stored elements divided by the number of buckets.. Load factor is best defined as which of the following is answered by A measure in a hash table calculated as the number of stored elements divided by the number of buckets option A
- C. A matrix in which most of the elements are zero, often stored using specialized structures to save memory.
