Q. In which scenario would you prefer using a Red-Black tree over an AVL tree?
A.
When frequent insertions and deletions are expected
B.
When memory usage is a critical factor
C.
When the dataset is static
D.
When search operations are the most frequent
Solution
Red-Black trees are generally preferred when there are frequent insertions and deletions because they require fewer rotations to maintain balance compared to AVL trees.
Correct Answer:
A
— When frequent insertions and deletions are expected
Q. What is the primary purpose of using AVL trees?
A.
To store data in a sorted manner
B.
To allow faster search operations
C.
To maintain balance for efficient operations
D.
To reduce memory usage
Solution
AVL trees maintain a balance factor to ensure that the height difference between the left and right subtrees is at most one, which allows for efficient search, insert, and delete operations.
Correct Answer:
C
— To maintain balance for efficient operations
