[画像:### Java StringBuilder Overview The `java.lang.StringBuilder` class uses a resizing array to represent a string of length \( n \). The first character in the string is placed at array index 0, and the last character is at array index \( n - 1 \). The array length is doubled when full and halved when one-quarter full to efficiently manage memory. #### Partial API Reference ```java public class StringBuilder { StringBuilder() // create an empty string void append(char c) // add character c to the end of the string void prepend(char c) // add character c to the beginning of the string char charAt(int i) // return the character at index i } ``` #### Diagram of Underlying Representation A diagram is provided to illustrate how the `StringBuilder` manages its character array: - **Array Indexing:** - The array is indexed from 0 to \( n \). - Characters are stored sequentially in the array with unused space illustrated after the last character. - **Example:** - First character: Index 0 ('M') - Last character: Index 6 ('M') - Array contents: ['M', 'I', 'D', 'T', 'E', 'R', 'M', '-'] - Unused space (indicated by '-') follows the last character. ```plaintext first character last character a[] -> M I D T E R M - 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 ``` #### Performance Properties Please mark any properties that apply: - [ ] \( \Theta(1) \) time in the worst case for `charAt()`. - [ ] \( \Theta(1) \) time in the worst case for `append`. - [ ] Starting from an empty `StringBuilder`, any sequence of \( n \) `append` operations takes \( \Theta(n) \) time in the worst case. - [ ] Starting from an empty `StringBuilder`, any sequence of \( n \) `append` and `prepend` operations takes \( \Theta(n) \) time in the worst case. - [ ] Uses \( \Theta(n) \) memory in the worst case.
