Classification of Data Structures:
Below Diagram shows the classification of Data Structures :

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Classification of Data Structures:
Data structures are broadly classified as shown below :

Primitive Data structures:

Fundamental Data types that are supported by programming
languages are called Primitive Data structures.
These Data structures are manipulated directly by machine
instructions
Examples: int,float,char,double,pointers

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Non- Primitive Data structures:
Data Structures that are created/constructed using primitive data
structures are called Non- Primitive Data structures.
These Data structures are not manipulated directly by machine
instructions

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Linear Data structures:
Linear data structures are data structures in which elements are
arranged sequentially.
These structures follow a linear order, meaning that there is a
linear relationship between the elements.
Examples of linear data structures:
Arrays, Linked Lists, Stacks and Queues

Example: Linked List

In a singly linked list, each element (node) contains data and a
reference to the next node in the sequence.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Non- Linear Data structures:
Linear data structures are data structures in which elements are
not arranged sequentially.
These structures do not follow a linear order, meaning that there
is no linear relationship between the elements.
Examples of linear data structures:
Trees and Graphs

Example: Binary tree

In a binary tree, each node has at most two
children, a left child and a right child.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Operations on Data Structures:
Data structure operations are the methods used to manipulate the
data in a data structure. The most common data structure
operations are:
Traversal
Insertion
Deletion
Updation
Search
Sort
Merge
Copy

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

‍Traversal: ‍Traversal operations are used to visit each node in a
data structure in a specific order.
‍Insertion: Insertion operations add new data elements to a data
structure. You can do this at the data structure's beginning,
middle, or end.
‍Deletion: ‍Deletion operations remove data elements from a data
structure. These operations are typically performed on nodes that
are no longer needed.
Updation: updation operations are used to replace the existing
value with new value in a data structure.
Search: Search operations are used to find a specific data element
in a data structure.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Sort: ‍Sort operations are used to arrange the data elements in a
data structure in a specific order. This can be done using various
sorting algorithms, such as insertion sort, bubble sort, merge sort,
and quick sort.
‍Merge: ‍Merge operations are used to combine two data structures
into one. This operation is typically used when two data structures
need to be combined into a single structure.
‍Copy: ‍Copy operations are used to create a duplicate of a data
structure.

 Review of pointers

In this we are going to learn ……….

Definition of Pointer
Pointer Declaration
Pointer Assignment/ Initialization
 Pointer Definition
Accessing Variable through Pointer
Pointer Disadvantages
Pointer and Array

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Pointer:
Definition : Pointer is a variable which stores the address of
another variable of same data types.
Example: Below diagram shows that pointer variable ptr holds the
address of variable called Var.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Pointer Declaration:
In pointer declaration ,we only declare the pointer but do not
initialize it.

Syntax to declare pointer:

dataType * variable_name;
Example: In the below example we declare a pointer variable called
ptr.
int * ptr;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Pointer Initialization:
Pointer initialization is the process where we assign some initial
value to the pointer variable. We generally use the ( & ) addressof
operator to get the memory address of a variable and then store it
in the pointer variable..
Syntax to initialize pointer:
pointer_var = &(variable_name);
Example:
int var = 10;
int * ptr;
ptr = &var;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Pointer Definition:
The process of initializing the pointer at the time of declaration is
called pointer definition.
Syntax for pointer definition:
dataType *pointer_var = &(variable_name);
Example:
int var = 10;
int * ptr = &var ;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Accessing variable through Pointer:
We can access the value of a variable through the pointer variable,
this is done by using the unary operator * (astrisk) usually known
as indirection operator.
Example:
int var = 10, *ptr, n;
ptr = &var ;
n = *p;
In the above example in the line three * operator is placed before the
variable in the expression, the pointer returns the value of the
variable of which the pointer value is address. *p returns the value
stored in var, because p contains the address of var.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Pointer Disadvantages:
Pointer is most dangerous feature available in c when they are not
used correctly, following are the some disadvantages of pointer.
No proper usage of pointer may cause the crashing the system.
Pointers must be initialized otherwise pointers contain the
garbage
value results in the crashing the system.
When pointers are used wrongly ,the compiler may not detect the
errors in most cased and therefore the program is likely to
produce unexpected results.
Debugging becomes difficult task.
Manipulation of address locations is not possible but it is possible
to access and modify
Dept.content
of CSE,only.
YIT Moodbidri
Pointers and Arrays:
We know that base address is the location of the first element
(indx 0) of the array.
The name of the array is equivalent to the address of its first
element.
Since the array name is the pointer constant to the
first element the address of the first element and the array name
both belong to a same memory location.
Example: int a[] = { 12,13,14,15,16}, *ptr;
ptr = a;
printf (“%u”, &a[0]);
printf( “%u”,a);
Above two printf statements print the address of first element of
array
Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri
 Relationship between Pointers and Arrays:
Suppose if we declare a integer pointer variable p, then we can
make the pointer variable to point to the array ‘arr’ by:
p = arr;
The relation between p and arr is:

p=&arr[0] = 1024
p+1= &arr[1] = 1028
p+2= &arr[2] = 1032
p+3=& arr[3] = 1036
p+4=& arr[4] = 1028

Thus, *(p) gives the value at arr[0], *(p+2) gives value at arr[2]

 Dynamic Memory Allocation

In this we are going to learn ……….

Dynamic memory allocation functions
Malloc()
Calloc()
Free()
Realloc()
Difference between static and dynamic
Memory
Difference between Malloc() and calloc()
Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri
In C the dynamic memory allocation is supported by the following
functions
malloc(),calloc(),free(),realloc()

Dynamic memory allocation: The allocation

of memory during runtime is called
Dynamic memory allocation.

The Dynamic memory allocation takes

Place in heap.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 malloc( ) function
The name "malloc" stands for memory allocation.
The malloc() function reserves a block of memory of the specified
number of bytes. And, it returns a pointer of void which can be
casted into pointers of any form.
Syntax of malloc()
ptr = (castType*) malloc(size);
Example:
ptr = (float*) malloc(100 * sizeof(float));
The above statement allocates 400 bytes of memory. It's because
the size of float is 4 bytes. And, the pointer ptr holds the address of
the first byte in the allocated memory.
The expression results in a NULL pointer if the memory cannot be
allocated.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 calloc( ) function
The name "calloc" stands for contiguous allocation.
The malloc() function allocates memory and leaves the memory
uninitialized, whereas the calloc() function allocates memory and
initializes all bits to zero.

Syntax of calloc()
ptr = (castType*) calloc(n,size);

Example:
ptr = (float*) calloc(25, sizeof(float));

The above statement allocates contiguous space in memory for 25

elements of type float

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 free( ) function

This funtion is used to de-allocate the memory that is previously

allocated by malloc() and calloc()
free function is used to return the memory back to the memory
RAM
Syntax of free()
free(ptr);

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 realloc( ) function

This function is used to resize the size of memory block. Which is

already allocated.
The memory to be resized should be first allocated using
ptr = malloc(size);
Syntax of Realloc()
ptr = realloc( ptr, new_size);

Example:
ptr = realloc( ptr, 50);

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Difference between Static Memory and Dynamic

Static Memory Dynamic Memory

Memory allocation is done at Memory allocation is done at run

compilation time time

Prior to allocation of memory No need to know amount of

some fixed amount of it must be memory prior to allocation
decided

Wastage of memory No Wastage of memory

Shortage of memory No Shortage of memory

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Difference between malloc and calloc

Malloc calloc

The syntax of malloc is The syntax of calloc is

ptr = (dataType*)malloc(number of ptr = (dataType*)calloc(number of
elements*size of each element) elements, size of each element)

Allocates a single block o memory Allocates multiple blocks of memory

with the specified size in parameter and each block contains equal size

Allocated memory locations are not Initializes all bytes in the allocated
initialized block to zero

Since there is no initialization then Calloc() is computationally more

time efficiency is more than the expensive because it set to zero but
calloc function it is more convenient than malloc()
function.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Example
#include <stdio.h> p1 = realloc(p1, n2);
#include <stdlib.h> for(i = 0; i < n2; ++i)
void main() printf("%d\t", *(p1 + i));
free(p1);
{
}
int *p1, i , n1, n2;
printf("Enter size of array: ");
scanf("%d", &n1);
p1 = (int*) calloc(n1 , sizeof(int));
printf("Enter array elements: \n");
for(i = 0; i < n1; i++)
scanf("%d",p1 + i);
printf("Array elements are:\n");
for(i = 0; i < n1; i++)
printf("%d\t",*(p1 + i));
printf("\nEnter new size of array: ");
scanf("%d", &n2);

 Review of Arrays

In this we are going to learn ……….

Definition of an Array
Array Declaration
Array Initialization
 Modify, Input, Output Array
Accessing Array using Pointer
Array Examples
Abstract Data Type for an Array

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 ARRAY IN DETAIL

Definition of Array: Array is a data structure that store

elements/items of same data type.

Array Declaration: A one-dimensional array in C is declared

implicitly by appending brackets to the name of a variable. For
Example: int list [5], *plist[5];

The first array defines five integers, while the second defines five
pointers to integers.
In C all arrays start at index 0, so list[0], list[l], list[2], list[3], and
list[4] are the names of the five array elements, each of which
contains an integer value.
 ARRAY IN DETAIL

Similarly, plist[0], plist[1], plist[2], plist[3], and plist[4] are the

names of five array elements, each of which contains a pointer to
an integer.

Address of Array Elements: When we declare one dimensional

array as int list[5];
If the address of the first element list[0], is called the base
address. If the size of an integer on your machine is denoted by
sizeof(int), then we get the following memory addresses for the five
elements of list[] as:

 Retrieve accepts an array and an index. It returns the value
associated with the index if the index is valid, or an error if the
index is invalid.
Store accepts an array, an index, and an item, and returns the

 DYNAMICLLAY ALLOCTED ARRAYS

In this we are going to learn ……….

One-dimensional Array
Two-dimensional Array

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Disadvantages of static allocated memory:
Array is Static Structure ( Array is of fixed size)
The number of elements/items to be stored should be known well
in advance.
You cannot increase the size of array during execution if you need
more space.
You cannot decrease the size of an array during execution if you
need less memory than what is declared.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 One Dimensional Dynamic Allocated Array

Creating a one-dimensional array using dynamic allocation

involves the use of pointers and memory allocation functions.

The most common functions for memory allocation in C are

malloc and calloc

Allocating memory using malloc

Allocating memory using calloc

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Dynamic Allocation using malloc
Dynamic allocation using malloc (memory allocation) allows you
to allocate memory during the runtime of the program.
Using malloc, you can create a block of memory for storing
elements in an array.
To allocate memory for an array, follow these steps:
Declare a pointer that will point to the first element of the 1D
array
Use malloc to allocate memory for the desired number of
elements
Assign the address of the memory block returned by malloc to
the pointer
Access and manipulate the elements in the array using the
pointer
Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri
 Example using malloc
#include <stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void main()
{
int n, i, *ptr;
printf("Enter the number of elements: ");
scanf("%d", &n);
ptr = (int*) malloc(n * sizeof(int));
if (ptr == NULL)
{
printf("Memory allocation failed!");
return -1;
}
printf("Enter %d Elements: ", n);
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
scanf("%d", (ptr+i));
}

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Example
printf(“ The %d Elements are: ", n);
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
printf("%d", *(ptr +i));
}
free(ptr);
}

Output:

Enter the number of elements: 4

Enter 4 Elements: 12 23 45 34
Array elements: 12 23 45 34

 Example using Calloc
#include <stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void main()
{
int n, i, *ptr;
printf("Enter the number of elements: ");
scanf("%d", &n);
ptr = (int*) calloc(n, sizeof(int));
if (ptr == NULL)
{
printf("Memory allocation failed!");
return -1;
}
printf("Enter %d Elements: ", n);
for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
{
scanf("%d", (ptr+i));
}

 Two Dimensional Dynamic Allocated Array

Dynamic allocation of a two-dimensional array involves allocating

memory for both rows and columns.

Here are the steps to allocate memory for a 2D array:

Declare a pointer to a pointer for holding the base address of the
2D array
Allocate memory for the rows using malloc
For each row, allocate memory for the columns using malloc
Assign the addresses to the row pointers

Allocating memory using malloc

Allocating memory using calloc

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 2D Array Example using malloc

#include <stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
void main()
{
int **array;
int rows, cols, i, j;
printf("Enter the number of rows: ");
scanf("%d", &rows);
printf("Enter the number of columns: ");
scanf("%d", &cols);
array = (int**) malloc(rows * sizeof(int*)); // Allocate memory for
rows

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

if (array == NULL)
{
printf("Memory allocation failed!");
return -1;
}
for (i = 0; i < rows; i++)
{
array[i] = (int*) malloc(cols * sizeof(int));
if (array[i] == NULL)
{
printf("Memory allocation failed!"); return -1;
}
}

 STRUCTURES NEED

Need for structures:

At times, during programming, there is a need to store multiple

logically related elements under one roof.

For instance, an employee’s details like name, employee

number, and designation need to be stored together. In such cases,
structures to do the job for us.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 DEFINITION OF STRUCTURES & DECLARATION

Define Structures: Structure is a collection of variables of

different data types.
Structure is a collection of variables of different data type
under a single name.

Structure Declaration: Before we create structure

variables, we should need to define its data type. To define a
structure, the struct keyword is used.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

EXAMPLES STRUCTURES

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 STRUCTURES VARIABLES

Declare Structures Variables: when the structure is

declared the compiler will not allocate the memory. To allocate
memory of a given structure type and work with it, we need to
create variables.

There are two ways to create a structure variables

1. Declare the structure variables along structure definition.

2. Declare the structure variables after structure definition

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Declare Structures Variables along with
structure Definition: We can declare the structure variables
along with the definition of the structure .
Synatx: Example:
struct structure_name struct Student
{ {
dataType member1; int rollNo;
dataType member2; char name[30];
.. int sem;
dataType memberN; float marks;
} var1,vr2,……,VarN; } S1,S2;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Declare Structures Variables after structure
Definition: We can declare the structure variables after
definition of the structure or in main function .
Synatx: Example:
struct structure_name struct Student
{ {
dataType member1; int rollNo;
dataType member2; char name[30];
.. int sem;
dataType memberN; float marks;
}; };
Struct structure_name var1,var2; struct Student S1,S2;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Assigning values to structure members/ structure
initialization
Structure Initialization:
It is not possible to assign the values to the members of the
structure during the structure definition because when a structure
is defined, no memory is allocated to the structure’s data members
at this point. Memory is only allocated when a structure variable is
declared. Consider the following code snippet.
struct Student
{
int rollNo=10; //COMPILER ERROR: cannot initialize
members
char name[30]= “Anand”;
int sem=4;
};
Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri
 Defining Own structure using typedef

We can create a new data type for the exisiting data type using the
keyword struct and typedef .

Syntax: Example:
typedef struct structure_name typedef struct Student
{ {[
datatype member1; int rollNo;
datatype member2; char name[20];
…… int sem;
datatype memberN float marks;
}; }Engg,Med;
structure_name var1,var2; Engg e1, Med m1;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Example of structure using typedef

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Accessing structure members
The members of a structure are accessed outside the structure by
the structure variables using the dot operator (.).
The following syntax is used to access any member of a structure by
its variable:
Syntax:
structure_variable . Member;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Structures and Array
Array of Structures: Consider a Scenario
Suppose you need to store the details of students like name, class,
and roll number in your database.
We create a structure variable and access the student
details. This method is practical for a few students only, but what if
the total number of students is 100 or something. It is not
convenient to create 100 separate structure variables for 100
students. In such cases, we use an array of structures.

we can also declare an array of structures. An array of structures

acts similar to a normal array. Just like other datatype (Primitive)

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Example: Array of Structure

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Structures and Pointers
Structures and Pointers: A structure pointer is defined as the
pointer which points to the address of the memory block that stores
a structure known as the structure pointer.

Accessing the structure members using pointers:

There are two ways to access the members of the structure with the
help of a structure pointer:
With the help of (*) asterisk or indirection operator and (.) dot
operator.
With the help of ( -> ) Arrow operator.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Example of Structures and Pointers

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Union
Union: The Union is a user-defined data type in C language that
can contain elements of the different data types just like structure.
But unlike structures, all the members in the C union are stored in
the same memory location.
In union, only one member can store data at the given instance
Union Declaration: we only declare the members’ names and data
types along with the name of the union. No memory is allocated to
the union in the declaration.
Syntax: Example:
union union_name union coordinates
{ {
datatype member1; int x;
datatype member2; ... Int y;
}; };

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Union
Union Variables: We can declare the variables of the union
With union definition
After union definition
Syntax with union def: Example:
union union_name union coordinates
{ {
datatype member1; int x;
datatype member2; ... Int y;
} var1,var2,…VarN; }P1,P2;
Syntax with After union def: Example:
union union_name union coordinates
{ {
datatype member1; int x;
datatype member2; ... Int y;
}; };
union var1,var2,…VarN; union P1,P2;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Union
Access union memebers: We can access the members of a union
by using the ( . ) dot operator just like structures.
Example:
var1.member1;
where var1 is the union variable and member1 is the member of
the union.

Initialization of Union in C: The initialization of a union is the

initialization of its members by simply assigning the value to it.
var1.member1 = some_value;
One important thing to note here is that only one member can
contain some value at a given instance of time.

Definition of polynomial
Polynomial Representation
Program to add two poly with n terms

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Definition of Polynomials: polynomial is a sum of terms, where
each term has a form axe, where x is the variable, a is the coefficient,
and e is the exponent.
Two example polynomials are:

The largest exponent of a polynomial is called its degree.

 Coefficients that are zero are not displayed.

The term with exponent equal to zero does not show the variable

since x raised toDept. of CSE,

a power YIT

is 1.
The standard mathematical definition for sum and product of
Polynomials are:

Assume that we have two polynomials

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Polynomials Representation:

Representation of one variable polynomial:

Example: A Polynomial consist of one variable is shown below:
x4+10x3+2x2+1

The polynomial with one variable can be represented using

structure namely by two fields:
cf (representing coefficient)
px (power of x)

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

The structure definition for the one variable is as shown here:
typedef struct
{
int cf; //hold the coefficient
int px; // holds the power of x
} POLY;

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

The below structure definition show how to represent the
polynomial with more terms
typedef struct
{
int cf; //hold the coefficient
int px; // holds the power of x
} POLY;
POLY p[10];

 Add two polynomials

If we want to add two polynomials first we need to search for the

 Representation of two polynomials in Array

Consider the two polynomials:

A(x)= 2x1000 +1
B(x) =x4 +10x3+3x2+1
The below fig shows how the polynomials are stored in array terms.

The index of the first term of A is given by starta

The index of the first term of B is given by startb
The index of the last term of A is given by finisha
The index of the last term of B is given by finishb

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

The index of the next free location in the array is given by avail.
In our example :
starta=0, finisha =1, startb=2, finishb=5 and avail=6

This representation does not impose any limit on the number of

polynomials that we can place in terms. The only stipulation is that
the total number of nonzero terms must be no more than MAX-
TERMS.
Any polynomial A that has n nonzero terms has starta and finisha
such that finisha = starta + n - 1.

 SPARSE MATRIX

In this we are going to learn ……….

Definition of Sparse matrix

Representation of sparse matrix as array
Transposing a matrix

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

Definition and Example of Sparse Matrix:
As show in the below two matrix the first matrix contains all the
non zero elements where as the second matrix contains many zero
elements. So second matrix is called sparse matrix.

Sparse matrix: Matrix is said to be sparse matrix if it contains

many zero elements and few non zero elements.

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 disadvantage of Sparse matrix
The sparse matrix contains many zeroes. If we are manipulating
only non-zero values, then we are wasting the memory space by
storing unnecessary zero values. This disadvantage can be
overcome by storing only non-zero values thus saving the space
For example: Consider a matrix of size 1000 x 1000.
Assume it has 2000 non-zero elements and remaining are zero
elements.
The corresponding two-dimensional array occupy 1,000,000
memory locations.
Instead of storing both zero and non-zero elements, if we store
only non-zero elements, the space can be reduced.
This can be done using sparse matrix representation as shown
below:
Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri
 Representation of sparse matrix as an Array

In the array representation of a sparse matrix ,only the non zero
elements are stored so, storage space can be reduced.
Each non zero elements in the matrix are represented as triplet:
<row,col,value>
For this the two dimensional array containing 3 columns can be
used.
The first column is for storing the row numbers
The second column is for storing the column numbers
The third column is for storing the value (corresponding to the
non zero element at (row,column))

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 Example
Consider the following sparse matrix :

The second diagram shows how this matrix is represented in the

array a.
a [0].row contains the number of rows;
a[0].col contains the number of columns
a[0].value contains the total number of nonzero entries.
Positions 1 through 8 store the triples representing the nonzero
entries.
Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri
We know that any element in the matrix can be uniquely defined
using the triples<row, col, val>. Thus, a sparse matrix can be
created using the array of triples as shown below:

 Transpose of a matrix

Transpose of a Matrix:
Definition: A matrix which is obtained by changing the row
elements into column elements and column elements into row
elements is called transpose of a matrix.
Example:
MATRIX TRANSPOSE MATRIX

Dept. of CSE, YIT Moodbidri

 STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED FOR TRANSPOSE FOR SPARSE

It is very easy and simple method to find the transpose of sparse matrix
Time complexity is O (num of col *num of non zero values)

Steps
1. Obtain the triplet form of sparse matrix
2. Inititalze currentB to 1
3. Traverse triplet matrix from second row and consider the column
element
4. Check if column number is equal to i, then swap its row and column
and add it to transpose matrix then increment currentB
5. Repeat above steps for all rows
6. Repeat step 3 and 4 for the column number values 1,2,3,4( total
number of columns)

 STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED FOR FAST TRANSPOSE
It is very fast but little complex method to find the transpose of sparse
matrix
Time complexity is O (num of col +num of non zero values)

Steps
1. Obtain the triplet form of sparse matrix
2. Create two 1-D arrays: row_terms and starting_pos
3. Size of row_terms array is the total number of columns in the original
matrix
4. At every index of row_terms,put the number of times respective index
appear in second column of sparse matrix
5. Size of starting_pos array: size of row_terms+1
6. Assign starting_pos[0]=1 and starting_pos[i]=starting_pos[i-
1]+row_terms[i-1]
7. Now traverse the sparse matrix from second row and consider column
element
8. J = starting_pos[col_no]
9. Jth index of transpose matrix = swapped row from original matrix
10.Increase starting_pos[col_no] by 1
11.Repeat steps from 7 to 10 for the remaining triplets of original matrix
