Question
II. Read each problem carefully and present an algorithm with the required running-time to solve each
problem.
2. Let A be a sorted array of n integers. You want to implement two functions:
update (i, x) - which takes as input an index i in A and sets A[i] = x. For example, calling
update (3,10) will set A[3] = 10. Note that array A might not be completely sorted after an
update.
is Sorted (i) - returns true if the subarray A[0... i] is sorted, otherwise it returns false.
A straightforward implementation of the two operations using only the given array can be done
as follows:
update operation can directly change the value of A[i] to x.
is Sorted will scan A[0] up to A[i] while checking if elements are non-decreasing.
With the above implementations, update takes O(1) time but is Sorted takes O(n) time.
a. Give another implementation where update takes O(n) time while isSorted takes O(1) time.
