Q1. Differentiate between queues and stacks (2)

Stacks Queues
A Stack is a data structure that follows the LIFO
A Queue follows the FIFO(First in First Out)
(Last In First Out) principle. principle.
We can add and remove an element from the It is open from both the ends hence we can
top/last place only easily
add elements to the back and can
We use append ( ) to add an element at the remove/delete
We use append ( ) to add an element at the
top/last place and pop( ) to remove the elements from the
top/last place front.
and pop(0) to remove the
element from the top/last element from the first place.
Q2. (i) Expand the following: (1)

Q3. (i) Which constraint specifies the values in the column must be unique?
(ii) Which constraint specified with a column uniquely identifies each row in a table? (2)
Ans. (i) UNIQUE (ii) PRIMARY KEY
Q4. Differentiate between fetchone( ) and fetchall( ) (2)
Ans. fetchall( ) : Whenever we execute the SELECT query using the cursor.execute() method the
cursor.fetchall() method extracts a result set of all the rows. It returns these rows as a list of tuples.
An empty list is returned if there is no record to fetch.
fetchone( ): Whenever we execute the SELECT query using the cursor.execute() method it creates a
cursor object. The cursor.fetchone() method returns a single record as a tuple and it returns None if
no rows are available.

OR
Web Browser: This is an application software used to view or browse web pages from a web server.
Have to type the exact URL to view the web page to request for a web page. This has no database.
Google Chrome, Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge are some popular web browsers.

to the users when they receive a request from a browser. The Web Server provides the storage
space for website files. Apache Server is the most popular server.
(ii) Wired Transmission Media: Wired transmission media are the cables that are used in networking.
Popular wired transmission media are twisted pair cable, co-axial cable and fiber optical cable.
Each of them has its own characteristics like transmission speed, effect of noise, physical
appearance, cost etc.
Wireless Transmission Media: Wireless transmission media are the ways of transmitting data
without using any cables. Nowadays wireless communication is becoming popular as it is not
bounded by physical geography. This transmission uses Microwave, Radio wave, Infrared or a
combination of these.
