Data Structures & Algorithms are fundamental concepts in computer science that deal with organizing, storing, and manipulating data efficiently. Data structures (e.g., arrays, linked lists, trees, graphs) provide ways to manage and access data, while algorithms are step-by-step procedures for solving problems or performing computations (e.g., sorting, searching, optimization). Together, they form the backbone of software development, enabling efficient problem-solving, performance optimization, and scalable solutions in programming and real-world applications.

What do you mean by recursion? Write down a C function to find out the GCD of two nos. using recursive technique.
Recursion is a programming technique that allows the programmer to express operations in terms of themselves. In C, this takes the form of a function that calls itself.
What is binary tree? Construct a binary tree using the inorder and postorder traversal of the node given below :
Inorder : D B F E A G C L J H K
Postorder : D F E B G L J K H C A
A binary tree consists of a finite set of element that can be partitioned into three distinct subset called root, the left and right sub tree. If there are no elements in the binary tree it is called an empty binary tree.
What is a B-Tree? Show how the letters A to P English alphabet can be entered into a B-tree of order 4.
A B-Tree of order 'm' is an “m" way tree such that 1. All leaf nodes are at the same level.
What is linear searching?
Linear search tries to find an item in a sequentially arranged data type. These sequentially arranged data items known as array or list, are accessible in incrementing memory location.
