Program Description Answer

The sorting is a type of algorithm which arranges the value in particular order.

Hence, the correct answer is option “B”.

Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Sorting:

When contents of the array being arranged in the particular order is called as sorting. The order of arranging the contents can be ascending or descending order.

Types of sorting:

  • Bubble sort
  • Selection sort
  • Insertion sort
  • Merge sort
  • Quick sort
  • Shell sort
  • Heap sort

These sort have the possibility of sorting the array in both ascending and descending order.

Ascending order:

When the elements present in the array are sorted from the lowest to highest is called as ascending order.

Example:

Consider the elements of array that are present in the ascending order below:

2, 4, 6, 8, 10… 20

Descending order:

When the elements present in the array are sorted from the highest to lowest is called as descending order.

Example:

Consider the elements of array that are present in the descending order below:

55, 45, 40, 35, 30 … 10

Explanation for incorrect options:

Search Algorithm:

The “searching” algorithm the process of searching for a particular element that is present in the array.

Hence, the option “A” is wrong.

Ordering Algorithm:

The term “ordering algorithm” is not an valid algorithm.

Hence, the option “C” is wrong.

Selection Algorithm:

The term “selection algorithm” finds the kth smallest number in a list or array.

Hence, the option “D” is wrong.

Let the user choose encryption or decryption. For encryption, let user input the key in Hexadecimal number, the plain text in Hexadecimal number, output the ciphertext (in hexadecimal numbers). For decryption, let user input the key in Hexadecimal number, the ciphertext (in hexadecimal numbers), output the decrypted message (Hexadecimal number). Both encryption and decryption should output the different operation results for each round like the following: For example: Round 1: E(R0) = ...... (Hex or Binary) K1 = …… E(Ro) xor K1 = S-box outputs = …… f(Ro1, K1) = ….. L2 =R1 =……. La = Ra Round 2: .....• No Encryption/Decryption libraries or functions provided by the third party are allowed. Submit your program codes to Moodle with the notes of how to compile and run your program.
When the given integer variable numberOfPackages is: greater than 12, output "Needs more than one box". between 5 inclusive and 12 inclusive, output "Large box". between 0 exclusive and 4 inclusive, output "Small box". less than or equal to 0, output "Invalid input". End with a newline.
