The Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC)
Structured Process Common Models Key Phases
SDLC is a structured process. It's aimed There are several models. Waterfall, Planning, Requirements, Design,

Teams applying SOLID principles can report 30% less debugging time.
Data Structures
Arrays Linked Lists
Collection of elements of the Sequence of nodes, each
same type, stored in contiguous containing data and a pointer to
memory locations. the next node.
Hash Tables
Data structure that implements an associative array, mapping keys to
values.
70% of software projects use a combination of arrays, linked lists, and hash
tables.
Algorithms
1 Sorting
Organizing elements in a specific order (e.g., Merge Sort,
Quick Sort).
2 Searching
Finding a specific element in a data structure (e.g., Binary
Search).
3 Graph Traversal
Visiting all vertices in a graph (e.g., BFS, DFS).
Integration Testing
Testing interactions between components.
System Testing
Testing the entire system as a whole.
