Count the balls off the brass monkey def pyramid_blocks(n, m, h): Mysteries of the pyramids have fascinated humanity through the ages. Instead of packing your machete and pith helmet to trek through deserts and jungles to raid the hidden treasures of the ancients like Indiana Croft, or by gaining visions of enlightenment by intensely meditating under the apex set over a square base like Deepak Veidt, this problem deals with truncated brass monkeys of layers of discrete uniform spheres, in spirit of that spherical cow running in a vacuum. Given that the top layer of the truncated brass monkey consists of n rows and m columns of spheres, and each solid layer immediately below the one above it always contains one more row and one more column, how many spheres in total make up this truncated brass monkey that has h layers? This problem could be solved in a straightforward brute force fashion by mechanistically tallying up the spheres through these layers. However, the fair and just…
Q. There is an island that has two kinds of inhabitants, knights, who always tellthe truth, and their opposites, knaves, who always lie. It is assumed that every inhabitant of theisland is either a knight or a knave. Below there are 3 inhabitants, who are denoted by A, B andC.A. What are A, B and C if A says “If B is a knave then C is a knave”, and B says “If Cis a knight then A is a knave”? Briefly explain your reasoning.B. What are A,B and C if A says “B is a knight and C is a knight”, and B says “A is aknight if and only if C is a knave”? Briefly explain your reasoning.

1. You, Alice and Bob are working on recursive search algorithms and have been studying avariant of binary search called trinary search. Alice has created the following pseudocodefor this algorithm:TSearch(A[a...b], t)If a > b return -1Let p1 = a + Floor((b - a)/3)If A[p1] = t return p1If A[p1] > t return TSearch(A[a...p1-1],t)Let p2 = a + Ceiling(2(b - a)/3)If A[p2] = t return p2If A[p2] > t return TSearch(A[p1+1...p2-1],t)Return TSearch(A[p2+1...b],t)EndTSearcha) State a recurrence relation that expresses the number of operations carried out bythis recursive algorithm when called on an input array of size n.b) Bob has heard that trinary search is no more efficient than binary search whenconsidering asymptotic growth. Help prove him correct by using induction to showthat your recurrence relation is in Θ(log2 n) as well.i. Split the tight bound into and upper (big-O) and lower (big-Ω).ii. For each bound select a function from Θ(log2 n) to use in your proof, likea log2 n or a…
1. a.An algorithm can be specified in various ways. Identify and explain four ways in which an algorithm can be specified. b. (b). Two algorithms A, B sort the same problem. When you go through each algorithm and break them down into their primitive operations, each can be represented as follows:A = 2n7 + 100n4 + 26n + 50 B = 7n4 + 22n2 + nlogn + 200For very large values of n, which of the algorithms A or B will runin the shortest time to solve the problem and why? (c). Two Computer Science students, Priscilla and Julius, are discussing how to compare two algorithms for solving a given problem. Priscilla suggests that they should use the execution times of the algorithms as criterion; but Julius insists that they should use the number of statements the algorithms execute as criterion. (i). Discuss the reasons why both criteria they are considering are not good for comparing algorithms.(ii). Recommend an ideal solution/criterion that they should rather use for comparing algorithms

Q1 Dan has a list of problems suitable for the assignment. The difficulties of these problems are stored in a list of integers a. The i-th problem’s difficulty is represented by a[i] (the higher the integer, the more difficult the problem). Dan is too busy eating saltines to worry about assignment decisions, so he asks Michael to select at least two problems from the list for the assignment. Since there are many possible subsets of the problems to consider and Michael has a life, he decides to consider only sublists (definition follows) of the list of problems. To make grading the assignment easier, Michael wants to pick problems that don’t vary too much in difficulty. What is the smallest difference between the difficulties of the most difficult selected problem and the least difficult selected problem he can achieve by selecting a sublist of length at least 2 of the original list of problems? Definition: A sublist of a list a is any list you can obtain by removing some (possibly 0)…
Words that contain given letter sequence def words_with_letters(words, letters): This might be a good place to bring in some general discrete math terminology that makes our problem specifications less ambiguous. A substring of a string consists of characters taken in order from consecutive positions. Contrast this with the similar concept of subsequence of characters still taken in order, but not necessarily at consecutive positions. For example, each of the five strings '', 'e', 'put', 'ompu' and 'computer' is both a substring and subsequence of the string 'computer', whereas 'cper' and 'out' are subsequences but not substrings. Note how the empty string is automatically a substring of every possible string. Every string is always its own substring, although not a proper substring the same way how all other substrings are proper. Concepts of sublist and subsequence are defined for lists in an analogous manner. Since sets have no internal order on top of the element membership in…
“Rectangles” A rectangle can be specified in a 2-dimensional plane using the top left (north west) point and the bottom right (south east) point. Given n rectangles (using 2 points each), give an O(n log n) algorithm that tells if any two rectangles from the list overlap. Two rectangles are said to overlap, if there is a common point in both of them. [If a rectangle is entirely contained in another, they are still said to “overlap”, even though their lines don’t cross.]
8.12 (Simulation: The Tortoise and the Hare) In this exercise, you’ll re-create the classic race of the tortoise and the hare. You’ll use random-number generation to develop a simulation of this memorable event. Our contenders begin the race at “square 1” of 70 squares. Each square represents a possible position along the race course. The finish line is at square 70. The first contender to reach or pass square 70 is rewarded with a pail of fresh carrots and lettuce. The course weaves its way up the side of a slippery mountain, so occasionally the contenders lose ground. There is a clock that ticks once per second. With each tick of the clock, your program should use function moveTortoise and moveHare to adjust the position of the animals according to the rules in Fig. 8.18 (view your book for the rules in the table). These functions should use pointer-based pass-by-reference to modify the position of the tortoise and the hare. Use variables to keep track of the positions of the…
def cost_to_hike_naive(lists: list[list[int]], start: tuple[int, int],end: tuple[int, int]) -> int:"""Given an elevation map <m> and a start and end point, calculate the cost itwould take to hike from <start_point> to <end_point>. If the start and endpoints are the same, then return 0.Some definitions and rules:1. You can only hike to either a vertically or horizontally adjacentlocation (you cannot travel diagonally).2. You must only travel in the direction of the <end_point>. Moreexplicitly, this means that any move you make MUST take you closerto the end point, so you cannot travel in the other direction.3. We define the cost to travel between two adjacent blocks as theabsolute difference in elevation between those blocks.4. You will calculate the naive route here, so at every position, youwill have two choices, to either move closer to the end point alonga row, or along a column, and you will chose the position that coststhe least at that point (you do not…
