Question
Chapter 11, Problem 36CRP
Program Plan Intro
Best fit
To eliminate irrelevant moves, the tiles that are out of place should always be adjacent to the hole. The tiles that are already in place should not be moved. The best fit algorithm eliminates the moves having a higher cost but only for proceeding moves. This algorithm does not consider the overall cost associated with a path.

Algorithm design with sorting. Each of n users spends some time on a social media site. For each i = 1, . . . , n, user i enters the site at time ai and leaves at time bi ≥ ai. You are interested in the question: how many distinct pairs of users are ever on the site at the same time? (Here, the pair (i, j) is the same as the pair (j, i)).Example: Suppose there are 5 users with the following entering and leaving times:
Then, the number of distinct pairs of users who are on the site at the same time is five: these pairs are (1, 2), (1, 3), (2, 3), (4, 6), (5, 6). (Drawing the intervals on a number line may make this easier to see).(a) Given input (a1 , b1),(a2 , b2), . . . ,(an, bn) as above in no particular order (i.e., not sorted in any way), describe a straightforward algorithm that takes Θ(n2)-time to compute the number of pairs of users who are ever on the site at the same time, and explain why it takes Θ(n2)-time. [We are expecting pseudocode and a brief justification for its…
1. Analyze the word finder with wild card characters scenario to form
the algorithm and compute the time complexity.
You are given a list of characters with size n, m. You need to read
character data provided as input into this list. There is also a list of p
words that you need to find in the given problem. You can only search
in left, right, up and down direction from a position. There are two wild
characters *' and '+' ,if there is any instance of wild card characters for
example '+' appears you can match whatever character in your word that
you are searching at this position (only one character). Similarly, if you
got wildcard *' you can skip any number of characters ( A sequence of
characters not necessary same in between the characters) but the last
character should be matched in the given data. This means you are not
allowed to match a first and last character with *' wildeard.
Input:
The first line of the input will give you two integers n and m. From the
next line you will get…

Following is the problem statement: There are n people standing in a circle waiting to be executed. The counting out begins at some point (rear) in the circle and proceeds around the circle in a fixed direction. In each step, a certain number (k) of people are skipped and the next person is executed. The elimination proceeds around the circle (which is becoming smaller and smaller as the executed people are removed), until only the last person remains, who is given freedom. Given the total number of persons n and a number k which indicates that k-1 persons are skipped and kth person is killed in circle. The task is to choose the place in the initial circle so that you are the last one remaining and so survive. For example, if n = 5 and k = 2, then the safe position is 3.

- 1. Give a recursive algorithm in pseudocode to compute the diameter of a binary tree. Recall that diameter is defined as the number of nodes on the longest path between any two nodes in the tree. Nodes have left and right references, but nothing else. You must use the height function, defined as follows, in your solution. Your solution will return the diameter of the tree as an integer. function height (Node n) 1. if n = null 2. return -1 3. return 1 + max (height (n.left), height (n.right)) Write your solution below. function diameter (Node n)arrow_forwardb3arrow_forwardA.

- Question Given a singly linked list, you need to do two tasks. Swap the first node with the last node. Then count the number of nodes and if the number of nodes is an odd number then delete the first node, otherwise delete the last node of the linked list. For example, if the given linked list is 1->2->3->4->5 then the linked list should be modified to 2->3->4->1. Because 1 and 5 will be swapped and 5 will be deleted as the number of nodes in this linked list is 5 which is an odd number, that means the first node which contains 5 has been deleted. If the input linked list is NULL, then it should remain NULL. If the input linked list has 1 node, then this node should be deleted and a new head should be returned. Sample 1: Input: NULL output: NULL. Sample 2: Input: 1 output: NULL Sample 3: Input: 1->2 output: 2 Sample 4: Input: 1->2->3 output: 2->1 Sample 5: Input: 1->2->3->4 _output: 4->2->3 Sample 6: Input: 1->2->3->4->5->6 output: 6->2->3->4->5.
