Program Plan Intro

Sequential search:

  • Sequential search is a process of searching for a particular element that is present in the array on by one till the last element until the search element is found.
  • The search uses loop that iterates from the beginning till the last element to find the search element.
  • The search continues for all the elements present in the array until the last element.
  • The search of the target element is made after comparing with the each and every element that is present in the array.

Assignment Write a program that reads a 2D array of chars, checks, and corrects each char within this array, and print out the corrected 2D array. First the program will read the row count (rowCount) and column count (columnCount) of the 2D array, both as int values. Then, the chars constituting the 2D array will be read on a row-by-row basis. After reading the 2D array, the program will check and correct each char within the 2D array according to the rules below. This process MUST be done by using a void function by sending the appropriate cell of the 2D array with a call-by-reference fashion. • If the row index is an even number, a char can only be a lowercase English value. • If the row index is an odd number, a char can only be ?, 7', or X'. • Any incorrect value MUST be changed into Finally, the checked and corrected 2D array will be printed out to the screen. NOTE: Checking the correctness of a char and correcting it (if necessary) MUST be done in the function with a…
what is the maximum number of comparisons that a Binary Search function will make when searching for a value in a 100-element array?
AIM: Write a program to do Linear Search using a given Search Key in an un- sorted Linear Array 'A' which has N values in it. Description: The linear search compares each element of the array with the search key until the search key is found. To determine that a value is not in the array, the program must compare the search key to every element in the array 'A'. It is also called "Sequential Search" because it traverses the data sequentially to locate the element. Algorithm: (Linear Search) LINEAR SEARCH (A, N, SKEY) Here A is a Linear Array with N elements and SKEY is a given item of information to search. This algorithm finds the location of SKEY in A and if successful, it returns its location otherwise it returns -1 for unsuccessful. 1. Repeat step-2 for K = 0 to N-1 2. if(A [K] = SKEY) return K [Successful Search] [End of loop of step-1 ] 3. return -1 [Un-Successful] 4. End.
