Program Plan Intro

Sections in relocatable object files:

There are many sections in a relocatable object file. They are given below:

  • “.text”:
    • It is the machine code of the compiled program.
  • “.rodata”:
    • This section is used to read only the data in the format such as
      • Strings in “printf” statements.
      • Jump tables for switch statements.
  • “.data”:
    • This section is used in the initialized “C” variables of global variable and static “C” variables.
    • Local “C” variables are initialized at execution time on the stack.
      • It does not show in either the “.data” or “.bss” sections.
  • “.bss”:
    • It is used in the uninitialized global and static “C” variables, along with any global or static variables that are assigned to zero.
  • “.symtab”:
    • It is a symbol table.
    • It contains the information about functions and global variables that are defined and referenced in the program.
  • “.rel.text”:
    • This section contains a list of locations in the “.text” section.
      • It will require to be changed once the linker merges this object file with others.
  • “.rel.data”:
    • This section contains relocation information for any global variables that are referenced or defined by the module.
  • “.debug”:
    • It is a symbol table for debugging
    • It contains entries for following
      • Definition of Local variables, global variables and typedefs variables and original “C” source file.
  • “.line”:
    • It is a mapping between line numbers in the given program
      • That is in original “C” source program and machine code instructions in the “.text” section.
  • “.strtab”:
    • It is a string table.
      • It contains symbol tables in the “.symtab” and “.debug” sections.
      • It is the table for section names in the section headers.

2. Consider the following pseudocode for partition: function partition (A,L,R) pivotkey = A [R] t = L for i L to R-1 inclusive: if A[i] A[i] t = t + 1 end if end for A [t] A[R] return t end function Suppose we call partition (A,0,5) on A=[10,1,9,2,8,5]. Show the state of the list at the indicated instances. Initial A After i=0 ends After 1 ends After i 2 ends After i = 3 ends After i = 4 ends After final swap 10 19 285 [12 pts]
.NET Interactive Solving Sudoku using Grover's Algorithm We will now solve a simple problem using Grover's algorithm, for which we do not necessarily know the solution beforehand. Our problem is a 2x2 binary sudoku, which in our case has two simple rules: •No column may contain the same value twice •No row may contain the same value twice If we assign each square in our sudoku to a variable like so: 1 V V₁ V3 V2 we want our circuit to output a solution to this sudoku. Note that, while this approach of using Grover's algorithm to solve this problem is not practical (you can probably find the solution in your head!), the purpose of this example is to demonstrate the conversion of classical decision problems into oracles for Grover's algorithm. Turning the Problem into a Circuit We want to create an oracle that will help us solve this problem, and we will start by creating a circuit that identifies a correct solution, we simply need to create a classical function on a quantum circuit that…
