ptemployee[0] = &projects[2];
Run Time Memory Allocation
is known as ?

What method is used to place
a value onto the top of a stack?
push() method, Push is the direction that data is being added to the stack.
push() member method places a value onto the top of a stack.

What is a queue ?
A Queue is a sequential organization of data. A queue is a first in first out
type of data structure. An element is inserted at the last position and an
element is always taken out from the first position.
What is the relationship
between a queue and its underlying array?
Data stored in a queue is actually stored in an array. Two indexes, front and
end will be used to identify the start and end of the queue.
When an element is removed front will be incremented by 1. In case it reaches
past the last index available it will be reset to 0. Then it will be checked
with end. If it is greater than end queue is empty.
When an element is added end will be incremented by 1. In case it reaches past
the last index available it will be reset to 0. After incrementing it will be
checked with front. If they are equal queue is full.
Which process places data at
the back of the queue?
Enqueue is the process that places data at the back of the queue.
