Assume a sorted character array of size n = 26. It contains all the capital letters, i.e, 'A' to 'Z', in increasing order as array elements. Let the search key be equal to 'a' (lower case letter). What is the last letter that will be compared with the search key using binary search algorithm? You may choose not to enclose your answer within a pair of single quotes. for the ASCII Note: you may refer to https://www.asciitable.com/ values of the characters.

Homework 7: Merging two sorted arrays Due date: Saturday March 18. Objectives: Learn to implement algorithms that work with multiple arrays. Understand the Merging algorithm. IMPORTANT. Carefully study Lecture 1 from Week 8 on D2L before you start on this. Sometimes we need to combine the values in two sorted sequences to produce a larger sorted sequence. This process is called Merging. As an example, if the first sequence (S1)contains the numbers 2 3 4 4 5 9 and the second sequence (S2) contains the numbers 1 4 5 8 9 11 12 13 17 the output sequence will contain 1 2 3 4 4 4 5 5 8 9 9 11 12 13 17 Each sequence can be stored in an array. The strategy is as follows: Start by comparing the first items in the two input arrays. Write the smaller number to the output array, and move to the the next item in that array. This is repeated until we reach the end of any one of the input arrays; thereafter, we simply copy all the numbers from the other input array to the output array. (In the…
The check-in and check-out times of each guest for a hotel are given as input. You need to output the maximum number of guests staying at a time at the hotel. [Hint]: Sort the check-in array Sort the check-out array Merge the sorted arrays Keep track of the number of guests at the hotel during each iteration. To do this traverse the merged array. When someone check-ins, guest count increases by one, when someone check-outs, guest count decreases by one. And also keep track of the maximum number at any time Sample Input Check-in times Check out times Sample Output {2.00, 2.10, 3.00, 3.20, 3.50, 5.00} {2.30, 3.40, 3.20, 4.30, 4.00, 5.20} 2 {9.00, 9.40, 9.50, 11.00, 15.00, 18.00} {9.10, 12.00, 11.20, 11.30, 19.00, 20.00} 3 Your answer

Imagine you want to use insertion sort for sorting a deck of cards, where the suits are ordered [Clubs, Spades, Diamonds, Hearts]. Thus, all the clubs will be ordered [Ace, 1, 2.., Queen, King], then all the Spades, etc. Create the pseudocode for this problem
Given the following 1D array of 7 strings: "SHIP" "CUP" The first element located at index 0 is "LION". The last element located at index 6 is "CUP". (Note that the indexing starts from 0) "LION" "ICE" "YOLK" "ROCK" "POT" Perform Selection Sort to rearrange the elements in alphabetical order. Simulate the algorithm and fill in the required array element values in the following items. You have the option not to to type the double quotes in your answers.
