1.12. The method for solving au + bv = gcd(a, b) described in Section 1.2 is some- what inefficient. This exercise describes a method to compute u and v that is well suited for computer implementation. In particular, it uses very little storage. (a) Show that the following algorithm computes the greatest common divisor g of the positive integers a and b, together with a solution (u, v) in integers to the equation au + bv = gcd(a, b). 1. Set u = 1, g = a, x=0, and y = b 2. If y = 0, set v = (g- au)/b and return the values (g, u, v) 3. Divide g by y with remainder, g = qy+t, with 0≤ 0. Modify your program so that it returns a solution with u > 0 and u as small as possible. [Hint. If (u, v) is a solution, then so is (u+b/g, v-a/g).] Redo (c) using your modified program.

AvgCompares(), a recursive function that calculates the average number of comparisons needed by a random search hit in a given BST (the internal path length of the tree divided by its size plus one), should be added to the BST. Create two implementations: a recursive method that adds a field to each node in the tree and takes linear space and constant time every query, and a method similar to size() that takes linear space and constant time per query.
In python
For the following function below: int MagicFunction (int n) { int solution; if (n > 0) { solution = 2* MagicFunction (-) + 2* MagicFunction (-); return solution; else return 1; (a) Derive the recurrence relation, T(n), for the running time of MagicFunction(n). (b) Solve the recurrence derived in (a) using the “Recursion Tree Method",
... Array A contains positive numbers that can be smaller than 1, larger than 1, or equal to 1. Find the sub-array A[..], such that the product of numbers in A[i..j] (i.e., A[i] × A[i+1] x x A[j - 1] x A[j]) is maximized. Of course, you should describe the fastest algorithm that you can find. A product of two numbers can be computed in time 0(1). Describe your algorithm in words, provide a pseudocode and briefly explain why your algo- rithm is correct.
Let n be an integer such that n>0. Consider the alphabet = {0, 1, 2} and let a,, denote the number of strings over Σ with length n which do not contain two consecutive zeros? Derive a recursive definition for the above scenario.
An argument is expressed in English below. The domain is the set of people attending a party. Every person who was late to the party left the party early. There is a person who was late to the party and was not happy. .. There is a person who left the party early and was not happy. The form of the argument is: x (P(x) → Q(x)) 3X (P(x) ^ ¬R(x)) .: 3x (Q(x) ^ ¬R(x)) Select the definitions for predicates P, Q, and R. P(x): Pick Q(x): Pick R(x): Pick
3. Write findMaxR(self, root) that will return the maximum of a BST using recursion. 4. Write find MinR(self, root) that will return the minimum of a BST using recursion.
State the PSEUDOCODE and the loop/recursion invariant alongwith the runtime of the algorithm that you would write for the below question:- You are given data about a friendship network. For every pair of friends, you are given the number of times they have exchanged messages in the last year. Give an efficient algorithm for partitioning the people in the network into k clusters, or communities in such a way that the minimum number of messages exchanged by any two members in different communities is maximized.
1. Write a linear (0(n)) running time complexity program in Java to find all the dominant elements in the given array of n distinct integer elements. An element is a dominant element if it is greater than all the elements to its right side. The rightmost element in the array is always a dominant element. For example, in the array {16, 17, 4, 3, 5, 2}, dominant elements are 17, 5 and 2. 2. Prove that your algorithm takes (0(n)) running time to compute this task. Formulate the sum equation for this proof.
