A police department wants to maintain a database of up to 1800 license-plate numbers of people who receive frequent tickets so t

hat it can be determined very quickly whether or not a given license plate is in the database. Speed of response is very important; efficient use of memory is also important, but not as important as speed of response. Which of the following data structures would be most appropriate for this task?
a. a sorted linked list
b. a sorted array with 1,800 entries
c. a hash table using open addressing with 1,800 entries
d. a hash table using open addressing with 3,600 entries
e. a hash table using open addressing with 10,000 entries

Answer:

c.

Explanation:

I believe that in this scenario, the best option for this data would be a hash table using open addressing with 1,800 entries. Hash tables consume more memory than lists but it makes up for it with much faster response time speeds. This is because hash tables work on a key:value system therefore, the license plate can easily be grabbed from the database extremely quickly by just plugging in the plate number. Doing so will retrieve all of the saved information from that license plate. That is why hash tables have a constant time complexity of O(1)

Ajay wants to read a brief overview about early settlers in the United States. Which type of online text source should he most l
Tanzania [10]
Well, integrity is a must if you are reading anything. So it would be any website that has either a .edu or a .gov at the end of a URL. 

I never suggest Wikipedia for brief, since 100's of people will edit one topic at a time, the answer to what he is looking for is buried in 18 pages about one settler in the United States!

There are two cons to an OLTP database. Which of the following are a solution of these cons?​
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

An OLTP (Online transaction processing) database is a database that allows for quick transaction processing. It involves inserting, deleting, updating data in the database.

OLTP has many drawbacks like if the system fails, all transactions are going to have problems. Also, since multiple users are allowed to access the data, it makes it prone to hackers.

The solution to the problems associated to the OLTP database is the OLAP (online analytical processing) database.

The OLAP systems allow users to analyze database information from multiple database systems at one time thereby allowing analysis for business decisions.
