Chapter 2.1, Problem 7STE
Program Plan Intro
Defining good variable name:
- In every
programming , variable names and other names should at least hint at the meaning or use of thing they are naming. - It is very useful to understand a program if the variables contains the meaningful names.
Rules for naming variable:
- Variable name cannot be a C++ keyboard. Example “int”, “double” cannot be a variable name because of, it is the keyword of C++.
- Variable name must begin with an alphabet that is upper case (“A” to “Z”) or lowercase (“a” to “z”).
- Variable name can contain an underscore (_) but can’t contain the other characters such as “!”, “@”, “&” etc.
- The name of the variable can be of any length however only first 31 characters are important.
- Variable name contains the combination of upper and lowercase letters.
Example:
The example for proper and improper usage of variable names is given below:
Proper usage of variable names: “mark”, “highestRank”, “first_place” etc.
Improper usage of variable names: “12mark”, “!high@3”, “*place*” etc.

The Horse table has the following columns:
ID - integer, auto increment, primary key
RegisteredName - variable-length string
Breed - variable-length string
Height - decimal number
BirthDate - date
Delete the following rows:
Horse with ID 5
All horses with breed Holsteiner or Paint
All horses born before March 13, 2013
To confirm that the deletes are correct, add the SELECT * FROM HORSE; statement.
Why is Linux popular? What would make someone choose a Linux OS over others? What makes a server? How is a server different from a workstation? What considerations do you have to keep in mind when choosing between physical, hybrid, or virtual server and what are the reasons to choose a virtual installation over the other options?
Objective you will:
1. Implement a Binary Search Tree (BST) from scratch, including the Big Five (Rule of Five)
2. Implement the TreeSort algorithm using a in-order traversal to store sorted elements in a vector.
3. Compare the performance of TreeSort with C++'s std::sort on large datasets.
Part 1: Understanding TreeSort How TreeSort Works TreeSort is a comparison-based sorting algorithm that leverages a Binary Search Tree (BST):
1. Insert all elements into a BST (logically sorting them).
2. Traverse the BST in-order to extract elements in sorted order.
3. Store the sorted elements in a vector.
