Question
Consider the following method, what is the recurrence relation T(n) for the
running time?
int mystery(int n)
if (n > 0)
answer = 2*mystery(n/3)+mystery(2n/3) +n
return answer
else
return 1
1. T(n) = T(n/3) + T(2n/3) + c, for n > 0 T(n) = 1, for n = 0
2. T(n) = T(n/3) + T(2n/3) + n, for n > 0 T(n) = 1, for n = 0
3. T(n) = 2T(n/3) + T(2n/3) + c, for n > 0 T(n) = 1, for n = 0
4. None of the above
