What is the disadvantage of arrays in C * 1 point?

An array doesn't check boundaries: In C language, we cannot check, if the values entered in an array are exceeding the size of that array or not. Data that is entered with the subscript, exceeds the array size and will be placed outside the array. Generally, on the top of the data or the program itself.

What is the biggest benefit of using an array instead of individual variables and why?

One of the major advantages of an array is that they can be declared once and reused multiple times. It represents multiple values by making use of a single variable. This helps in the improvement of the reusability of code and also improves the readability of the code.

What is the point of a circular array?

An array is called circular if we consider the first element as next of the last element. Circular arrays are used to implement queue (Refer to this and this).

What will be the best case complexity to find the largest element in a sorted array of n?

We are given an integer array of size N or we can say number of elements is equal to N. We have to find the largest/ maximum element in an array. The time complexity to solve this is linear O(N) and space compexity is O(1).

How do you deal with circular arrays?

The first typical way to solve circular array problems is to extend the original array to twice length, 2nd half has the same element as first half. Then everything become simple. Naive by simple solution, just look for the next greater element directly. Time complexity: O(n^2).
