    Only I and III are necessarily true

  • B

    Only II is necessarily true

  • C

    Only I and II are necessarily true

  • D

    Only II and III are necessarily true

Question 5

In a compact one-dimensional array representation for a lower triangular matrix (all elements above the diagonal are zero) of size n x n, non-zero elements of each row are stored one after another, starting from the first row, the index of (i, j)th element in this new representation is

  • A

    i + j

  • B

    (j - 1) + i(i - 1)/2

  • C

    i + j - 1

  • D

    i + j(j - 1)/2
