19. Suppose the numbers 7, 5, 1, 8, 3, 6, 0, 9, 4, 2 are inserted in that order into an
initially empty binary search tree. The binary search tree uses the usual ordering

(C) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 (D) 9 8 6 4 2 3 0 1 5 7

22. The usual T(n
2
) implementation of Insertion Sort to sort an array uses linear
search to identify the position where an element is to be inserted into the already
sorted part of the array. If, instead, we use binary search to identify the position,
the worst case running time will
(A)  remain T(n
2
) (B)  become T(n (log n)
2
) 
(C)  become T(n log n) (D)  become T(n)

(B) In un-typed languages, values do not have any types
(C) In dynamically typed languages, variables have no types
(D) In all statically typed languages, each variable in a program is associated
with values of only a single type during the execution of the program 
25. Using a larger block size in a fixed block size file system leads to

(B) better disk throughput and better disk space utilization
(C) poorer disk throughput but better disk space utilization
(D) poorer disk throughput and poorer disk space utilization
26. In a system with 32 bit virtual addresses and 1KB page size, use of one-level
page tables for virtual to physical address translation is not practical because of
(A) the large amount of internal fragmentation
(B) the large amount of external fragmentation

routes in the network 
(C)  IP ensures that a packet is discarded if it is unable to reach its destination 
within a given number of hops
