IMPORTANT QUESTIONS
Advantages of Algorithms:
1.It is a step-wise representation of a solution to a given problem, which makes it easy to understand.
2.A n algorithm uses a definite procedure.
3. It is not dependent on any programming language, so it is easy to understand for anyone even without programming knowledge.
4. Every step in an algorithm has its own logical sequence so it is easy to debug.
5. By using algorithm, the problem is broken down into smaller pieces or steps hence, it is easier for programmer to convert it into an actual program.
Disdvantages of Algorithms:
1.Alogorithms is Time consuming.
2. Difficult to show Branching and Looping in Algorithms.
3. Big tasks are difficult to put in Algorithms.
Advantages of flowchart:
1.The Flowchart is an excellent way of communicating the logic of a program.
2.It is easy and efficient to analyze problem using flowchart.
3.During program development cycle, the flowchart plays the role of a guide or a blueprint. Which makes program development process easier.
4.After successful development of a program, it needs continuous timely maintenance during the course of its operation. The flowchart makes program or system maintenance easier.
5.It helps the programmer to write the program code.
6.It is easy to convert the flowchart into any programming language code as it does not use any specific programming language concept.
Disadvantage of flowchart
1.The flowchart can be complex when the logic of a program is quite complicated.
2.Drawing flowchart is a time-consuming task.
3.Difficult to alter the flowchart. Sometimes, the designer needs to redraw the complete flowchart to change the logic of the flowchart or to alter the flowchart.
4.Since it uses special sets of symbols for every action, it is quite a tedious task to develop a flowchart as it requires special tools to draw the necessary symbols.
5.In the case of a complex flowchart, other programmers might have a difficult time understanding the logic and process of the flowchart.
6.It is just a visualization of a program, it cannot function like an actual program.
Advantages of array
1.It is better and convenient way of storing the data of same datatype with same size.
2.It allows us to store known number of elements in it.
3.It allocates memory in contiguous memory locations for its elements. It does not allocate any extra space/ memory for its elements. Hence there is no memory overflow or shortage of memory in arrays.
4.Iterating the arrays using their index is faster compared to any other methods like linked list etc.
5.It allows to store the elements in any dimensional array - supports multidimensional array.
Disadvantages of array
1.It allows us to enter only fixed number of elements into it. We cannot alter the size of the array once array is declared. Hence if we need to insert more number of records than declared then it is not possible. We should know array size at the compile time itself.
2.Inserting and deleting the records from the array would be costly since we add / delete the elements from the array, we need to manage memory space too.
3.It does not verify the indexes while compiling the array. In case there is any indexes pointed which is more than the dimension specified, then we will get run time errors rather than identifying them at compile time.
