Answer:

Guangdong Higher Education Self-Examination

Data Structures (Practical Assessment) Course Syllabus

(Course Code: 13182)

I. Assessment Objectives

“Data Structures” is a core professional course for the Higher Education Self-Examination Computer Application (Associate Degree) program. The practical component aims to develop candidates’ ability to apply data structures to solve real-world problems through theoretical study and hands-on experiments.

Candidates are required to:

II. Prescribed Textbook

《Data Structures》
Edited by the National Higher Education Self-Examination Guidance Committee
Authored by Xin Yunwei and Chen Shuoying
Published by China Machine Press, 2023 Edition

III. Assessment Content

Candidates must master the following:

  1. Structure and operations of linked lists; solve application problems using linked list operations
  2. Sequential stack and circular queue storage characteristics and basic operations
  3. Two-dimensional array storage and random access by subscript; solve problems using 2D arrays
  4. Binary tree storage using binary linked lists; implement tree creation, traversal, and Huffman algorithm
  5. Graph storage using adjacency matrix and adjacency list; implement graph creation, traversal, and applications
  6. Implement basic sorting algorithms and compare the number of key comparisons and element moves
  7. Understand sequential and binary search principles and implement the search process

VIII. Sample Questions

1. Multiple Choice (10 questions, 20 points)

Q1. To check whether parentheses in an expression are properly matched, the most suitable data structure is:
A. Linear list B. Queue C. Tree D. Stack
Answer: D

2. Code Fill-in-the-Blank (2 questions, 20 points)

Q1. Complete the circular queue implementation (10 points)

// Key blanks and answers:
(1) (q->rear + 1) % MAX_SIZE == q->front
(2) isFull(q)
(3) (q->rear + 1) % MAX_SIZE
(4) q->data[i]
(5) initQueue(&q)

3. Function Question (2 questions, 20 points)

Q1. Delete the node at position i in a singly linked list with a head node (10 points)

int deli(Node* head, int i) {
    if (head == NULL || i < 1) return 0;
    Node* p = head->next;
    Node* q = head;
    int j = 1;
    while (p != NULL && j < i) {
        q = p;
        p = p->next;
        j++;
    }
    if (p != NULL && j == i) {
        q->next = p->next;
        free(p);
        return 1;
    }
    return 0;
}

4. Programming Questions (3 questions, 40 points total)

Q1. Direct Insertion Sort – Output the array after each pass (15 points)

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_SIZE 100

void printArray(int arr[], int n) {
    for (int i = 0; i < n - 1; i++) printf("%d ", arr[i]);
    printf("%d\n", arr[n-1]);
}

void insertionSort(int arr[], int n) {
    for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
        int temp = arr[i];
        int j = i - 1;
        while (j >= 0 && arr[j] > temp) {
            arr[j + 1] = arr[j];
            j--;
        }
        arr[j + 1] = temp;
        printArray(arr, n);
    }
}

int main() {
    int arr[MAX_SIZE], n;
    scanf("%d", &n);
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) scanf("%d", &arr[i]);
    insertionSort(arr, n);
    return 0;
}
