A program developed for a web store represents customer account balances using a format that approximates real numbers. While testing the program,, a software developer discovers that some values appear to be mathematically imprecise. Which of the following is the most likley cause of the impression. - The account balance are represented using a fixed number of bits, resulting in over flows - The account balance are represented using a fixed number of bits, resulting in round off erros - The account balances are representedusing an unlimited number of bits, resulting in overflow errors. - The account balances are representedusing an unlimited number of bits resulting in round off errors

Develop a performance-testing client that takesan int value T from the command line and performs T trials of the following experiement: generate the connections in an N-by-Nsquare grid, randomly oriented and in random order, then use UnionFind to determineconnectivity as in our development client, looping until all sites are connected. For eachN, print the value of N, the average number of connections processed, and the ratio ofthe running time to the previous. Use your program to validate the hypotheses in thetext that the running times for quick-find and quick-union are quadratic and weightedquick-union is near-linear. Note : As N doubles, the number of sites in the grid increasesby a factor of 4, so expect a doubling factor of 16 for quadratic and 4 for linear.
Suppose you’re consulting for a bank that’s concerned about fraud detection, and they come to youwith the following problem. They have a collection of n bank cards that they’ve confiscated, suspectingthem of being used in fraud. Each bank card is a small plastic object, containing a magnetic stripe withsome encrypted data, and it corresponds to a unique account in the bank. Each account can have manybank cards corresponding to it, and we’ll say that two bank cards are equivalent if they correspond to thesame account.It’s very difficult to read the account number off a bank card directly, but the bank has a high-tech “equivalence tester” that takes two bank cards and, after performing some computations, determines whether theyare equivalent.Their question is the following: among the collection of n cards, is there a set of more than n/2 of themthat are all equivalent to one another? Assume that the only feasible operations you can do with the cardsare to pick two of them and plug them…
You are the sysadmin for a big tech company, and you have to estimate the amount of servers you need to handle some long-running jobs. One server can handle only one job at once. One job can only be executed by one server at once. Once a server has finished executing its current job, it can be reassigned to a new job. Given an array of time intervals intervals where intervals[i] = [starti, endi], representing the start and end time for a particular job that needs to be executed, return the minimum number of servers required to run all jobs. Constraints: 1 <= intervals.length <= 104 0 <= starti < endi <= 106 Function definition for Java: public int minMeetingRooms(int[][] intervals) { // Your code here } Function definition for Python: def minMeetingRooms(self, intervals: List[List[int]]) -> int: #Your code here Announced Test Cases: Input: intervals = [[0,30],[5,10],[15,20]] Output: 2Explanation: We need one server for the job that starts at 0. For the job…

Consider a sloppy web application for an online shopping site that saves the price of each item as a hidden form variable on the web page given to the client; when the customer submits the form, the information from the hidden form variable is utilized to calculate the customer's bill. What is the flaw in this strategy? (A loophole was used by certain consumers of an online-shopping site before the issue was discovered and remedied in a genuine case.)
It will simulate the diffusion of heatthrough a square metal plate. The plate starts off at 0 deg., but the 4 ×4 pixel square in the centeris kept at 100 deg.Now a cell in the interior has 4 neighbors: the upper, lower, left, and right neighbor. The updateformula for an interior point (other than the center square) is therefore given by:u′i,j = ui,j + k((ui,j+1 −ui,j ) + (ui,j−1 −ui,j ) + (ui−1,j −ui,j ) + (ui+1,j −ui,j ))= ui,j + k(ui,j+1 + ui,j−1 + ui−1,j + ui+1,j −4ui,j )The boundaries have to be updated separately using 8 different equations: 4 for each of the edges,and 4 for each corner. Here is the update formula for a cell on the top edge that is not on a corner:u′i,n−1 = ui,n−1 + k((ui,n−2 −ui,n−1) + (ui−1,n−1 −ui,n−1) + (ui+1,n−1 −ui,n−1))= ui,n−1 + k(ui,n−2 + ui−1,n−1 + ui+1,n−1 −3ui,n−1)Here is the update formula for a cell in the top left corner:u′0,n−1 = u0,n−1 + k((u0,n−2 −u0,n−1) + (u1,n−1 −u0,n−1))= u0,n−1 + k(u0,n−2 + u1,n−1 −2u0,n−1) Program:
Write a program to Validate an IPv4 Address. According to Wikipedia, IPv4 addresses are canonically represented in dot-decimal notation, which consists of four decimal numbers, each ranging from 0 to 255, separated by dots, e.g., 172.16.254.1 . The generalized form of an IPv4 address is (0-255).(0-255).(0-255).(0-255). Here we are considering numbers only from 0 to 255 and any additional leading zeroes will be considered invalid. Your task is to complete the function isValid which returns 1, if the ip address is valid else returns 0. The function takes a string s as its only argument . **************************************************************************/ // SOLUTION (in C++): #include <bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; int isValid(string s) { s += '.'; int countDots = 0; string str = ""; for (int i = 0; i < s.length(); i++) {…
Given a string S containing only digits, Your task is to complete the function genIp() which returns a vector containing all possible combinations of valid IPv4 IP addresses and takes only a string S as its only argument. Note: Order doesn't matter. For string 11211 the IP address possible are 1.1.2.11 1.1.21.1 1.12.1.1 11.2.1.1

You are placing an order with an online retailer. To complete a purchase, your web browser sends a single encrypted, MAC-authenticated message to the web site, consisting only of the following information: a) your credit card information, b) the item number and quantity being ordered. a. Write a formula using the function symbol MAC(…) to indicate what is being authenticated. You may choose any reasonable variable names for the data items. b. Say an adversary is sitting between you and the retailer, with the ability to intercept traffic and send messages. Assume the authentication is not vulnerable to length extension. Describe a cryptographic attack the adversary could carry out to “max out” your credit card. What type of attack is this? c. What could the retailer do to prevent this attack, simply by changing what data is sent in that single encrypted, authenticated message? Write a new MAC() formula to show the new construction.
