Define the term ‘sparse vector.’

Answer Posted / Manpreet Singh Siddhu

A sparse vector is a mathematical object used in linear algebra, where most of its elements are zero. In computing, it's a data structure that reduces storage requirements by not storing the values for the zero entries, instead focusing on non-zero or significant entries. This is particularly useful when dealing with high-dimensional data where the majority of dimensions have little to no contribution.
