A hash table has a size of 11 and data filled in its position like{3,5,7,9,6}how many comparisons have to be made if data is not found in the list in worst case
a) 2
b) 6
c) 11

• hash table worst case O(1)
  hash table best case O(1)
  hast table worst case when element is not found =2 complexity special case

• 11....five comparisons for 5 elements and 6 for remaining 6 places to find the elements.
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(13)
• 6...since hashing technique is used for searching in O(1) time.

  as it is given worst case scenario..so hash function will look for the element in the biggest cluster available in the table i.e. {5,6,7}.
  
  number of comparisons=size of largest cluster + 1
  
  so 3+1=4
