Player A and player B invented a game in which a person who sorts playing cards is a winner. The cards with red color should come before those with black color, and cards with small numbers should come before those with big numbers. The cards with images should be in this order: Jack, Queen and King. The game allows player to start by small number of cards, then increase step by step, e.g, 2,3,4, ....n. Design an efficient algorithm that helps a player A to win the game by sorting n number of cards faster than player B. Note that n number of cards which is very large can be obtained by repeating cards with the same number and same color, e.g, card 3 with color red can be repeated m times while m
Control structures
Control structures are block of statements that analyze the value of variables and determine the flow of execution based on those values. When a program is running, the CPU executes the code line by line. After sometime, the program reaches the point where it has to make a decision on whether it has to go to another part of the code or repeat execution of certain part of the code. These results affect the flow of the program's code and these are called control structures.
Switch Statement
The switch statement is a key feature that is used by the programmers a lot in the world of programming and coding, as well as in information technology in general. The switch statement is a selection control mechanism that allows the variable value to change the order of the individual statements in the software execution via search.
