Explanation of Solution

Divide and conquer algorithm:

  • This is the algorithm that works recursively by breaking down the larger problem into two or more sub problems of the same or related type.
  • This can be divided until the problems are simple to solve it directly. Finally, all those sub problems are combined together to form the solution for original problem.

Example for divide and conquer algorithm:

  • The best example for the divide and conquer algorithm is sorting problems such as quick sort, merge sort, and the closest pair of points...

2.68♦♦ Write code for a function with the following prototype: * Mask with least signficant n bits set to 1 * Examples: n = 6 -> 0x3F, n = 17-> 0x1FFFF * Assume 1 <= n <= w int lower_one_mask (int n); Your function should follow the bit-level integer coding rules Be careful of the case n = W.
Hi-Volt Components You are the IT manager at Hi-Voltage Components, a medium-sized firm that makes specialized circuit boards. Hi-Voltage's largest customer, Green Industries, recently installed a computerized purchasing sys- tem. If Hi-Voltage connects to the purchasing system, Green Industries will be able to submit purchase orders electronically. Although Hi-Voltage has a computerized accounting system, that system is not capable of handling EDI. Tasks 1. What options does Hi-Voltage have for developing a system to connect with Green Industries' pur- chasing system? 2. What terms or concepts describe the proposed computer-to-computer relationship between Hi-Voltage and Green Industries? why not? 3. Would Hi-Voltage's proposed new system be a transaction processing system? Why or 4. Before Hi-Voltage makes a final decision, should the company consider an ERP system? Why or why not?
Consider the following expression in C: a/b > 0 && b/a > 0.What will be the result of evaluating this expression when a is zero? What will be the result when b is zero? Would it make sense to try to design a language in which this expression is guaranteed to evaluate to false when either a or b (but not both) is zero? Explain your answer
