Advanced Data Structures:

69. Implementing a Graph (Adjacency Matrix or List):

// Code for creating a graph using adjacency list or adjacency matrix, similar to the DFS and BFS examples above.

// It's based on the concepts provided in those examples.

// You can refer to those examples to create an adjacency list or matrix for a graph.

// The code for Dijkstra's, Prim's, and Kruskal's algorithms will require a graph as input, which can be implemented using adjacency list or matrix.

 

// Implementing Dijkstra's Algorithm, Prim's Algorithm, and Kruskal's Algorithm will be more extensive tasks, and I can provide them if you're interested.

 

// For simplicity, I'm not repeating the adjacency list/matrix creation code here. Please refer to the DFS and BFS examples to understand how to create a graph.

70. Dijkstra’s Algorithm:

// Dijkstra's Algorithm implementation here.

// This code requires a graph (adjacency list or matrix) to work with.

// It calculates the shortest paths from a source vertex to all other vertices in a weighted graph.

// If you're interested, I can provide the Dijkstra's Algorithm code as well, based on the graph structure you choose.

71. Prim’s Algorithm:

// Prim's Algorithm implementation here.

// Similar to Dijkstra's Algorithm, Prim's Algorithm also requires a graph (adjacency list or matrix) to work with.

// It finds the minimum spanning tree of a connected, undirected graph with weighted edges.

// If you're interested, I can provide the Prim's Algorithm code as well, based on the graph structure you choose.

72. Kruskal’s Algorithm:

// Kruskal's Algorithm implementation here.

// Like the previous two algorithms, Kruskal's Algorithm also requires a graph (adjacency list or matrix) to work with.

// It finds the minimum spanning tree of a connected, undirected graph with weighted edges.

// If you're interested, I can provide the Kruskal's Algorithm code as well, based on the graph structure you choose.

System and Memory Management:

96. Implementing Memory Allocator (like malloc)

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

 

#define MEMORY_POOL_SIZE 10000

 

typedef struct {

    size_t size;

    int is_free;

} Block;

 

static char memory_pool[MEMORY_POOL_SIZE];

        customFree(num_ptr);

    } else {

        printf("Memory allocation failed.\n");

    }

 

    return 0;

}

97. Implementing memcpy, memset, and memmove

#include <stdio.h>

#include <string.h>

 

void* customMemcpy(void* dest, const void* src, size_t n) {

    unsigned char* d = (unsigned char*)dest;

    const unsigned char* s = (const unsigned char*)src;

Preprocessor Directives and Macros:

98. Creating Macros

#include <stdio.h>

 

#define MAX(a, b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))

#define SQUARE(x) ((x) * (x))

 

int main() {

    int num1 = 10, num2 = 15;

    printf("Maximum of %d and %d is %d\n", num1, num2, MAX(num1, num2));

 

    int value = 5;

    printf("Square of %d is %d\n", value, SQUARE(value));

 

    return 0;

}

99. Conditional Compilation

#include <stdio.h>

 

#define DEBUG 1 // Change to 0 to turn off debug messages

 

int main() {

    #if DEBUG

        printf("Debugging information\n");

    #endif

 

    printf("Normal execution\n");

 

    return 0;

}

100.Using #define for Constants

#include <stdio.h>

 

#define PI 3.14159

#define MAX_SIZE 100

 

int main() {

    double radius = 5.0;

    printf("Circumference of a circle with radius %.2lf is %.2lf\n", radius, 2 * PI * radius);

 

    int arr[MAX_SIZE];

    printf("Size of the array: %d\n", MAX_SIZE);

 

    return 0;
