2. Algorithm analysis (Ex.2.4-4)
Consider the following recursive algorithm.
ALGORITHM Q(n)
//Input: A positive integer n
if n = 1 return 1
else return Q(n-1) + 2 *n-1
a. Set up a recurrence relation for this function's values and solve it to deter-
mine what this algorithm computes.
b. Set up a recurrence relation for the number of multiplications made by this
algorithm and solve it.
c. Set up a recurrence relation for the number of additions/subtractions made
by this algorithm and solve it.
