Example of telephone directory, Data Structure & Algorithms

Assignment Help:

A telephone directory having n = 10 records and Name field as key. Let us assume that the names are stored in array 'm' i.e. m(0) to m(9) and the search has to be made for name "X", i.e. element = "X".

Telephone Directory

Name                              id.

AA                         25161234

BB                          22752345

CC                       23405678

DD                    22361111

EE                        24782202

FF                           26254444

GG                       26150880

HH                                25513653

II                        26252794

KK                        26257149

 

The above algorithm will search for element = "GG" and will stop at 6th index of array and the needed id is "26150880", which is stored at position 7 i.e. 6+1.
