Linked List:

Linked list is a linear and dynamic data structure which is used to organize data; it contains sequence of elements which are connected together through links. The each element of a linked list is called as a node.

Arrays:

An array is a linear data structure which stores multiple values of same types of data; the array values are stored in continuous memory locations.

Expert Solution & Answer

Explanation of Solution

Advantages of linked lists over arrays:

The advantages of linked list over an array are as follows:

  • Dynamic size
  • Ease of insertion/deletion

Dynamic size:

Linked List Arrays
Linked list is dynamic or shrinkable in size. The programmer doesn’t need to know the number of nodes available in the list. Arrays are static in size. The size of an array is fixed; it cannot be modified at compiling time.

Ease of insertion/deletion:

Linked List Arrays

The operations of linked list are easier and efficient. It provides flexibility for inserting and deleting data at a specific position.

No memory wastage during operations of linked list.

The operations in an array are sequential in nature.

Memory gets wasted during operations in an array.

What are the two errors in my pseudocode?Module getAverage(Integer value1, Integer value2, Integer value3)                 Declare Integer average                 average = value1 + value2 + value3 / 3                 Display average            End Module
Where did I make an error in my pseudocode module???Code:Module main()                 Call raiseToPower(2, 1.5)            End main              Module raiseToPower(Real value, Integer power)                 Declare Real result                 Set result = value ^ power                 Display result            End raiseToPower
Why does my pseudocode not perform what I asked? Don't know whats wrong with it.// This program asks the user to enter a value             // between 1 and 10 and validates the input.             Declare Integer value                         // Get a value from the user.             Display "Enter a value between 1 and 10."             Input value               // Make sure the value is between 1 and 10.             While value < 1 AND value > 10                         Display "ERROR: The value must be between 1 and 10."                         Display "Enter a value between 1 and 10."                         Input value             End While
