Personal computers made accessing information a lot faster and easier but a lot of times the things we see when we search information is tailored to our personal beliefs and opinions. For example, if you're a person that commonly searches for information or products about dogs, you're way less likely to get an add promoting cat food. While this may seem like a very positive thing, it also may have a downside. This rule also applies to things like political views, if you're a trump supporter you'll most likely end up seeing things that are pro-Trump and a lot fewer things that are pro-Hilary. 

This can skew people's outlooks on certain subjects, if you're only ever seeing web pages and articles saying that Trump is great, you won't ever see the opposing side which is essential in making a well-informed decision about a candidate for the presidency or any other subject for that matter.

In summary, You have to see both the good and bad side of something to truly make a choice and the way the internet works can sometimes make that difficult.


I hope this helps and makes sense! :)

Consider the efficiency of locating the kth element in a singly-linked list. How does that compare to locating the kth element i
eimsori [14]

Answer:

Finding kth element is more efficient in a doubly-linked list when compared to a singly-linked list

Explanation:

Assuming that  both lists have firs_t and last_ pointers.

For a singly-linked list ; when locating a kth element, you have iterate through a number of k-1 elements which means that locating an element will be done only in one ( 1 ) direction

For a Doubly-linked list : To locate the Kth element can be done from two ( directions ) i.e. if the Kth element can found either by traversing the number of elements before it or after it . This makes finding the Kth element faster because the shortest route can be taken.

<em>Finding kth element is more efficient in a doubly-linked list when compared to a singly-linked list </em>
