Fundamental of the DS

Fundamental of the DS is a DSA topic. In plain words you use it for a short Fundamental of the DS example in a short dry-run on paper. Don’t start with a slogan — start with that picture.

Smallest example: the smallest Fundamental of the DS example you can type. Type it, run it, and say what you see. If you can do that from memory, you know Fundamental of the DS.

From the example next to this theory — Fundamental of the DS: dry-run [4, 1, 3].

Trap — only saying “Fundamental of the DS” with no example. Fix that before you talk about advanced DSA.

Viva: what is Fundamental of the DS? Then show the smallest Fundamental of the DS example you can type. Then name the trap.

Exam tip

What is Fundamental of the DS? Show this: the smallest Fundamental of the DS example you can type. Trap: only saying “Fundamental of the DS” with no example.

Example

# Fundamental of the DS
data = [4, 1, 3]
print("start", data)
if data[0] > data[1]:
    data[0], data[1] = data[1], data[0]
print("after one step", data)

Fundamental of the DS: dry-run [4, 1, 3]. Say the list after one step.
