Title Assignment 1: Searching and Sorting
Aim To implement Searching and Sorting on Array as a linear Data structure
Problem Consider a student database of SEIT class (at least 15 records). Database contains different
statement
Fields of every student like Roll No, Name and SGPA.(array of structure)
a. Design a roll call list, arrange list of students according to roll numbers in ascending
order (Use Bubble Sort)
b. Arrange list of students alphabetically. (Use Insertion sort)
c. Arrange list of students to find out first ten toppers from a class. (Use Quick sort)
d. Search students according to SGPA. If more than one student having same SGPA,
then print list of all students having same SGPA.
e. Search a particular student according to name using binary search without recursion.
(all the student records having the presence of search key should be displayed)
(Note: Implement either Bubble sort or Insertion Sort.)
Objective • To study the concepts of array of structure.
• Know the concepts, algorithms and applications of Sorting.
• Understand the concepts, algorithms and applications of Searching.
Outcome • Understand linear data structure - array of structure.
• Apply different sorting techniques on array of structure (Bubble,
• Insertion and Quicksort) and display the output for every pass.
• Apply different searching techniques on array of structure (Linear
Search, Binary Search) and display the output for every pass..
• Calculate time complexity.

5. Explain Quick Sort with example and pseudocode
Conclusion Add the comparative study and analysis in tabular format
1. All sorting algorithms: consider following factors for comparison :
Time complexity : best, average worst , Space complexity, stable sort or not,
methods used for sorting
2. Searching algorithms: Consider following factors for comparison:
1. Time complexity : best, average, worst
2. Input list constraint
3. Methods used for sorting.

Following points are expected in program.
Test Validations :
cases/validation
• Limit of the array should not be –ve, and should not cross the lower and upper bound.
• Roll numbers should not repeat, should not -ve
• Name should only contain alphabets, space and .
• Should not allowed any other operations before the input list is entered by the user .
• Before going to (binary search) records should be sorted according a names.
Test Cases
Sorting :
1. Four test cases :
2. Already Sorted according to the requirement
3. Sorted in reverse order
4. Partially sorted
5. Completely Random List
→Show pass wise output , including no of comparisons and swaps needed
Searching :
1. Search element at first, middle, last position.
2. Search element is not in the list
Program Printout /Softcopy
Results /output Including test cases , validations and valid inputs based results .
