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.
