What are the applications for circular linked lists?

A singly-linked circular list is useful for implementing queue data structures with minimum overhead. Normally we implement a queue with two pointers: one to the tail for insertions and one to the head for extractions. With a circular list we only need to maintain a single pointer to the tail because the tail always points "forwards" to the head (instead of null as it normally would), thus achieving constant-time access to both the head and tail via a single pointer.

Circular linked lists are generally useful wherever "wraparound" is necessary. That is, from any given node in the list, we can traverse forwards with the guarantee that we will eventually arrive back at that same node. With doubly-linked circular lists we have the advantage of traversing in either direction (bi-directional traversal).

Why does Venus have a smaller angular diameter when it is full than when it is crescent?

When Venus is full, it is on the opposite side of the sun as seen from Earth. Since it is on the opposite side, it has an approximate distance of 1.7 AU. In the thin crescent phase, Venus is probably around 0.4 AU from Earth. So it would have a larger angular diameter. That is also why it appears so much brighter in crescent phase than when full -- it is much nearer.

Why is china so crowded?

Not all places in China are "crowded". In fact, mostly only urban areas of China are highly populated, especially major cities such as Beijing (the capitol) and Shanghai, among others. Most of these cities are located in the easternmost side of China, while the less "crowded" rural areas are in the west of the country. However, it is true that some Chinese cities are very crowded, just as New York City is, but even more so because the sizes of some of these cities are bigger.

What age group has the best memory?

Younger people, because their brains are newer, so they remember things better. Older people tend to forget because their brains are getting older.

---

Younger people (ages 3 to 10) can remember more and learn more because their minds are not preoccupied with lines of thought that expand on previous memories. However, teens and young adults have an easier time memorizing specific information because they have learned "how to organize their memory", rather than absorbing useless or disorganized material.

Most pre-teens have shorter attention spans, which makes specific learning more difficult. They do have the benefit of not having to consciously dwell on unpleasant memories.

---

Memory ability varies greatly by individual as well as by age, and also depends on the level on concentration that the individual can attain.

What Difference between norms and values?

norms are socially approved ways of behaving that are considered normal depending upon the specific situation e.g wearing a suit in a office but on the other hand values are ideas about the correct form of behavior a bit familiar with beliefs e.g human life is sacred.values are inculcated into individuals by a party but norms are already present people acting in their social life just have to identify them and go with its flow. Another thing that we must not forget that if someone breaks norms it is wrong and maybe discarded from the society but breaking values might appear funny as it does not fit the context.
