Explanation of Solution

Linked list:

Linked list is a linear and dynamic data structure which is used to organize data; it contains sequence of elements which are connected together in memory to form a chain. The every element of linked list is called as a node.

Head pointer:

The purpose of head pointer is to point the node of head node or first node in the linked list and it is also called as “list head”; if the head pointer points to a null value, then it is considered that the list is empty.

We are considering the RSA encryption scheme. The involved numbers are small, so the communication is insecure.  Alice's public key (n,public_key) is (247,7). A code breaker manages to factories  247 = 13 x 19  Determine Alice's secret key. To solve the problem, you need not use the extended Euclid algorithm, but you may assume that her private key is one of the following numbers 31,35,55,59,77,89.
Consider the following Turing Machine (TM). Does the TM halt if it begins on the empty tape? If it halts, after how many steps? Does the TM halt if it begins on a tape that contains a single letter A followed by blanks? Justify your answer.
