Solution

c) An error is thrown, and the enqueue operation fails.

In a circular queue, if you try to enqueue an element when the queue is full, it will result in an error or overflow condition. The operation fails because there is no space to add a new element. The existing elements in the queue are not automatically dequeued or overwritten, and the new element is not placed at the front of the queue.

Suppose that Q is a queue implemented with a circular array A,  initially empty (with size/capacity = 0). You run the following operations in the order given:1. Q.enqueue(7) 2. Q.enqueue(42) 3. Q.enqueue(3) 4. Q.dequeue()5. Q.enqueue(10)6. Q.first()7. Q.enqueue(5)8. Q.enqueue(30)9. Q.enqueue(15)10. Q.dequeue()11. Q.dequeue()12. Q.dequeue()13. Q.dequeue()14. Q.dequeue()Assuming that insertion and deletion in dynamic arrays use the resizing strategy we have seen during the lectures, describe the entries of the array A after performing the above operations, separating each entry by a comma and no space. If an entry is empty, write "None" (case-sensitive). For example, if the array was [1, 2, None, None], then write "1,2,None,None", omitting the double quotes.

The dequeue operation should throw an exception if it removes the last element in the queue. A. True B. False
