Explanation of Solution

Computation of (int)(a-b):

  • It is given that the value assigned to a is “0.6” and the value assigned to b is “0.3”.
  • Whenever there is a type conversion from a wide data to a narrow data, the loss of precision takes place.
  • Since, int is narrower than the double, whenever a double is type casted to an int, then the loss of precision takes place...

Explanation of Solution

Result of Double.compare(a, b):

  • The method Double.compare(a, b) compares two test values for the order in which they must come.
  • If the variable on the left side is less than the right side, then “-1” is returned.
  • Otherwise, if the variable on the left side is greater than the right side, then “1” is returned...

What is the worst case time complexity of the following algorithm for i = 1 to x do  for j = 2^((i-1)x) to 2^(in) do print(i,j)
Prove for each pair of expression f(n) and g(n) whether f(n) is big O, little o Ω,ω or Θ of g(n). For each case it is possible that more than one of these conditions is satisfied:1. f(n) =log(n2^n), g(n) = log(sqrt(n)2^(n^2))2. f(n) =nsqrt(n) +log(n^n), g(n) =n + sqrt(n)logn
