Explanation of Solution

Stack:

  • A stack is a linear data structure.
  • It follows the order FILO (first in last out) or LIFO (last-in-first-out) for operations.
  • The two main operations performed in a stack are,
    • Push() – Add item to stack.
    • Pop() – Remove item from stack.
  • The stack is a container used to store objects which are added and removed in last-in-first-out (LIFO) or first-in-last-out (FILO) fashion.
  • The stack will have only one end for adding and removing items.
    • So, when the method pop is called on a stack, it removes item which is added recently on the stack...

What do you mean by a list that is linked twice?
Question 1 If N represents the number of elements in the collection, then the add method of the SortedArrayCollection class is O(N). True False   Question 2 If N represents the number of elements in the list, then the index-based remove method of the ABList class is O(N). True False   Question 3 The add method of our Collection ADT might throw the CollectionOverflowException. True False   Question 4 A list allows retrieval of information based on the size of the information. True False   Question 5 Our CollectionInterface defines a single constructor. True False   Question 6 Our lists allow null elements. True False   Question 7 Even though our collections will be generic, our CollectionInterface is not generic. True False   Question 8 Our lists are unbounded. True False   Question 9 If N represents the number of elements in the collection, then the contains method of the ArrayCollection class is O(N). True False   Question 10 Our lists allow duplicate elements. True False
Exercise 1• Create a class that sorts a list in ascending order. Make use of the Collections method sort• The list should be a list of Strings.• Test your code with {“Hearts”, “Diamonds”, “Clubs”, “Spades”}• Before and after the sort, use the implicit call to the list’s toString method to output the list contents. Exercise 2• Create a class with the same requirement as in Exercise 1, but the sort should be in descending order• Make use of the Comparator interface• Make use of the static collection method reverseOrder   java
