Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a priority queue with the following tasks and their priorities: (A, 3), (B, 5), (C, 2). Insert them into a two-dimensional structure. Then, delete the max and show the state of the structure.

💡 Hint: Remember how to determine the correct row and position for each insertion.

Question 2

Critically analyze the efficiency of your two-dimensional structure for 100 jobs, state the impacts of the algorithmic complexity on performance and how it compares with heaps.

💡 Hint: Think about the trade-offs in performance and the practical applications of each structure.
