Discuss tradeoffs between using the C++ STL list and vector.

Expert Solution

STL stands for Standard Template Library. it is a library in the C++ language.

Actually, please use vector when you don't care about what type of sequential container that you're using, but if you're doing many insertions and from anywhere in the container other than the end, you should use list. if you require random access, then you have to use vector. You can find more about this in the below table...

vector	C++ STL list
Elements are stored in Contiguous memory	Non-contiguous memory
Pre-allocated memory,	No pre-allocated memory
Each element only needs the space for the element type itself.	Each element needs extra space for the node which holds the element
re-allocate memory for the entire vector any time that you add an element is possible.	can't re-allocate memory
randomly access its elements.	can't randomly access elements.
Iterators are disproving if you add or delete elements to or from the vector.	Iterators remain valid even when you add or delete elements from the list.

PLEASE LIKE...THANK YOU!

Language: C++ Conduct an evaluation of the performance of STL containers (vector, list, set, unordered_set) in inserting and finding elements, with a relatively large data set. What you'll be measuring is the execution time. Obviously it's dependent on the speed of the computer one uses, so what matters is the relative speed (relative to the vector's speed in percentage) create a vector of 100,000 elements of integers, with the values initially set as 1~100,000, in this order. randomize the ordering...

Using only core C++ (no special libraries, except STL vector or string if you want), write a C++ program that allows a user to input a string and (a) Checks if the expression is a valid polynomial. Parentheses or negation are not allowed. Spaces should be ignored. E.g., the following are valid i. n^2+2*n+5 ii. 2*n + 4.54* n^5 +4 +5*n and the following are invalid iii. n^3n iv. n^4.2 v. 5n vi. n^3 -3*n if an input is given...
