A linear array which represents a single row or column of data
1 of 25
Two Dimensional Array
A non-linear array which represents a grid of data (Columns and Rows)
2 of 25
Queue
A data structure that uses FIFO logic (First In First Out)
3 of 25
Stack
A data structure that uses LIFO logic (Last In First Out)
4 of 25
Graph
A set of nodes (points/vertices) connected to one another by edges. Edges can be directed or weighted (allocated a value)
5 of 25
Tree
A hierarchal data structure consisting of nodes. It is in the form of parent and children nodes
6 of 25
Hash Table
A data structure that stores data in an array format with each data value having an associated index value
7 of 25
Dictionary
A data structure that uses keys and values to store data
8 of 25
Vector
A type of array that is one-dimensional. This means it stores data of a single type

Stack Operation: Push
Inserting an element onto the top of a stack
10 of 25
Stack Operation: Pop
Accessing and removing from the top of the stack
11 of 25
Stack Operation: Peek (Top)
Accessing the data from the item on top of the stack

Adjacency Matrix
A grid containing all the edges (connections between nodes) of a graph
13 of 25
Adjacency List
A list of values which can be used to represent a graph
14 of 25
Root Node
A root node has no parent nodes, only child nodes (usually found at the top of the tree)
15 of 25
Binary Tree
A tree with at most two children nodes per parent node

What is a collision (In the context of hashing)?
A collision is when two key values compute the same hash value
17 of 25
What is a hashing algorithm?
An algorithm that converts an input into a hash (a result - usually a much smaller numeric output)

How do you find the midpoint of two vectors?
Using the formula W=aU+bV
W represents the vector midpoint you are finding
U&V represents the two vectors
a and b are the weighting so to find the midpoint the weighting has to be 0.5 for both

How do you find the dot product of two vectors?
Using the formula a*b = x(a)*x(b)+y(a)*y(b)
23 of 25
How do you find the angle between two vectors?
Cos(Angle)=U*V/(UU*VV)
U&V represent the two vectors
UU&VV represent the length of the two vectors
24 of 25
How do you find the length of a vector?
Using Pythagoras's theorem - (1,4) would be Sqroot(1^2+4^2)
