Explanation of Solution

Sort-based algorithm for computing the relational division operation:

Suppose be two relations and has to be computed.

  • Sort relation “s” on “S” for sort-based algorithm. Sort relation “r” on (T, S).
  • Now, start scanning “r” and look at the “T” attribute values of the first tuple.
  • Scan “r” till tuples have same value of “T”. Also scan “s” simultaneously and check whether every tuple of “s” also occurs as the “S” attribute of “r”, in a fashion similar to merge join.
  • If this is the case, output that value of “T” and proceed with the next value of “T”.
  • Relation “s” may have to be scanned multiple times but “r” will only be scanned once.
  • Total disk accesses, after sorting both the relations, will be “|r| 9 N * |s|”, where “N” is the number of distinct values of “T” in “r”.

Hash-based algorithm for computing the relational division operation:

  • Let assume that for any value of “T”, all tuples in “r” with that “T” value fit in memory, and consider the general case at the end...

Modular Program Structure. Analysis of Structured Programming Examples. Ways to Reduce Coupling. Based on the given problem, create an algorithm and a block diagram, and write the program code: Function: y=xsin⁡x Interval: [0,π] Requirements: Create a graph of the function. Show the coordinates (x and y). Choose your own scale and show it in the block diagram. Create a block diagram based on the algorithm. Write the program code in Python. Requirements: Each step in the block diagram must be clearly shown. The graph of the function must be drawn and saved (in PNG format). Write the code in a modular way (functions and the main part should be separate). Please explain and describe the results in detail.
