Section 4.1.3 states “the space required by the array-based list implementation is Ω(n), but can be greater.” Explain why this is so.
I see that you too this statement from https://opendsa-server.cs.vt.edu/ODSA/Books/CS3/html/ListAnalysis.html
as it says "Array-based lists have the disadvantage that their size must be predetermined before the array can be allocated. Array-based lists cannot grow beyond their predetermined size. Whenever the list contains only a few elements, a substantial amount of space might be tied up in a largely empty array. This empty space is the overhead required by the array-based list. Linked lists have the advantage that they only need space for the objects actually on the list. There is no limit to the number of elements on a linked list, as long as there is free store memory available. The amount of space required by a linked list is Θ(n)Θ(n), while the space required by the array-based list implementation is Ω(n)Ω(n), but can be greater."
Example you need to create a list, now you have 2 choices 1. Array 2. LinkedList
The very basic difference between these two is that Array is contagious in memory ie. all element will be stored on subsequent memory locations and hence you need to make this memory allocation well before in future in advance. No new memory allocation is done while storing a new element.
Linked list is non-contagious, means memory is allocated on the fly and a pointer from last element ( called node ) to newly created node is made to keep the track of all elements.
So example you want to store 10 element in list.
taking Array you have to have 10 element space reserved in advance, so made that but now you just have 3 element to store. So space for 7 elements is just lying there unused, in this case space complexity is higher than required.
But if this would have been Linked list, space for only 3 elements would have been used, and further space be allocated dynamically.
Hope this made you understand!!

Any help with this is appriciated Array-Based Linked List Implementation Implement an array-based Linked List in Java. Use your Use your Can class as a JAR. You need to create a driver that makes several cans and places them in alphabetical order in a list. Identify the necessary methods in a List Linked implementation. Look at previous Data Structures (stack or queue) and be sure to include all necessary methods. DO NOT USE Java's List. You will receive zero points....

Explain why recursive implementation of QuickSort will require O(log n) of additional space.
Consider a method called insertElement(string element, int position) in an array-based list data structure. The purpose of this method is to insert an element (of type string) in the array at the given position within the array. This methods works fine for small array-based lists, but is very inefficient for large lists. Briefly explain why the same function is more efficient when implemented using a singly linked list.
Complete an Array-Based implementation of the ADT List including a main method and show that the ADT List works. Draw a class diagram of the ADT List __________________________________________ public interface IntegerListInterface{ public boolean isEmpty(); //Determines whether a list is empty. //Precondition: None. //Postcondition: Returns true if the list is empty, //otherwise returns false. //Throws: None. public int size(); // Determines the length of a list. // Precondition: None. // Postcondition: Returns the number of items in this IntegerList. //Throws: None....
An item can be appended to an array-based list, provided the lenght is less than the array's allocated size. True / False
Answer as correct or incorrect This question has to do with an array based list datastructure, like the one we studied in class. In this representation, a list is represented with an array, and an integer. Interestingly, one list (from a logical/abstract standpoint) may be correctly represented by many different array and integer combinations. Which of the following arrays and integers can represent the following list: [cat, dog, mouse] (Note, I'll format these as array, integer. So each array will...
