Which uses less memory? a) struct astruct { int x; float y; int v; }; b) union au..

Answer / jaroosh

And the explanation for the above answer is :
union has the size of the biggest type of its member, so
here its size is 4, while structs size is 4 + 4 + 4 = 16,
and arrays size is 1 * 10 = 10.

Answer / ranjeet garodia

Jaroosh u r right while calculating the size...
but if u take size of int as 2 then astruct size will be
2+4+2=8
array = 1*10= 10
so c is correct

if size of int is 4, then
struct size will be 4+4+4= 12
then a is correct.

Assume an array of structure is in order by studentID field of the record, where student IDs go from 101 to 500. Write the most efficient pseudocode algorithm you can to find the record with a specific studentID if every single student ID from 101 to 500 is used and the array has 400 elements. Write the most efficient pseudocode algorithm you can to find a record with a studentID near the end of the IDs, say in the range from 450 to 500, if not every single student ID in the range of 101 to 500 is used and the array size is only 300
