EID305: Design and Analysis of Algorithms Question Bank Basic Search and Traversing Techniques

This document contains a question bank covering basic search and traversing techniques for trees and graphs, including recursive and non-recursive algorithms for in-order, pre-order and post-order tree traversal. It also covers breadth-first search, depth-first search and algorithms for biconnected components, articulation points, graph coloring, the N-queens problem, Hamiltonian cycles, and backtracking. The second half of the document shifts to branch and bound techniques, including for the knapsack and travelling salesman problems. It closes with algebraic problems involving Horner's rule and interpolation algorithms.
