Breadth-first Search Complexity

The video tutorial explains the time and space complexity of a program using a tree structure. It details how the time complexity is O(N) due to the number of nodes and the use of a single while loop. The space complexity is also O(N) as it involves storing elements in a queue. The tutorial further discusses traversal techniques and how to optimize the process by directly printing results instead of appending them. The explanation aims to provide a clear understanding of these complexities in the context of level order traversal.

What is the time complexity of the program discussed in the video?

• O(log N)

• O(1)

• O(N)

• O(N^2)

Which data structure is primarily used to manage elements in the program?

• Queue

• Array

• Stack

• Linked List

What is the space complexity of the program as explained in the video?

• O(1)

• O(N)

• O(N^2)

• O(log N)

How does the program manage the elements in the queue to optimize space usage?

• By adding all elements at once

• By removing elements before adding new ones

• By sorting the elements

• By using a stack instead

What is the primary purpose of the traversal method discussed in the video?

• To sort the elements

• To directly print the results

• To calculate the sum of elements

• To find the maximum element
