Program Plan Intro

Insertion sort:

This algorithm places the element in the correct order by taking one element at a time while sorting.

  • It just starts with the first element in the array, then compares the second with the first if the first is smaller than the second then the swap operation is performed and next it compares with the third, fourth and fifth elements.
  • According to the proper order it rearranges the elements through swapping.

For the 8-queens problem, define a heuristic function, design a Best First Search algorithm in which the search process is guided by f(n) = g(n) + h(n), where g(n) is the depth of node n and h(n) is the heuristic function you define, and give the pseudo code description.
Devise an algorithm that matches the lower bound, i.e., sorts a list in which each paper is within k slots of its proper position in e (n log k) time. Hint: See Exercise 6.5-8 on page 166 of Introduction to Algorithms, Third Edition.
Computer Science Write the PSEUDOCODE for an algorithm that takes as input a list of numbers that are sorted in nondecreasing order, and finds the location(s) of the most frequently occurring element(s) in the list. If there are more than one element that is the most frequently occurring, then return the locations of all of them. Analyze the worst-case time complexity of this algorithm and give the O() estimate. (A list is in nondecreasing order if each number in the list is greater than or equal to the number preceding it.)
