Question
- The
algorithm SkipListSort is a sorting algorithm that begins by inserting a sequence of keys into a skip list.- Once you had done that, what would the remaining steps in the algorithm be?
- Give an asymptotic notation that best describes how long it would take to sort n keys this way (i.e., the entire SkipListSort algorithm) and briefly explain (in a sentence or two) why.
- The algorithm HashSort is a sorting algorithm that begins by inserting a sequence of keys into a hash table.
- Once you had done that, what would the remaining steps in the algorithm be?
- Give an asymptotic notation that best describes how long it would take to sort n keys this way (i.e., the entire HashSort algorithm) and briefly explain (in a sentence or two) why.

- c++arrow_forwardQuicksort is a powerful divide-and-conquer sorting algorithm that can be described in just four lines ofpseudocode. The key to Quicksort is the PARTITION(A, p, r) procedure, which inputs elementsptorof array A,and chooses the final element x = A[r] as the pivot element. The output is an array where all elementsto the left ofxare less thanx, and all elements to the right of x are greater than x. In this question, we will use the Lomuto Partition Method from class and assume that the pivot isalwaysthe last (right-most) element of the input array. Question: Let A be an array withn= 2k−1 elements, where k is some positive integer. Determine a formula (in terms of n) for the minimum possible number of total comparisons required by Quicksort, as well as a formula for the maximum possible number of total comparisons required by Quicksort. Use your formulas to show that the running time of Quicksort is O(nlogn) in the best case and O(n2) in the worst case.arrow_forwardEvaluations of algorithmsCalculate the algorithmic complexity of binary search in terms of time.

- The algorithm: –In an array of n elements, go to index [n/2] –If the record there is the one you want, you are done –If the record value there is smaller than your search value, all records less than the current record can be ignored – set your search range of elements to [n/2+1…n] and return to step 1 –Otherwise, set your range of elements to [0…(n/2)-1] and return to step 1 –Repeat this loop until you have 0 elements (record is not found) or record is found Short answer Another approach to the update algorithm is to perform use the delete function for the old value and if it is successful, call the insert function using the new value. Explain in your own words if you think this approach is significantly better, worse, or in the same category as the algorithm discussed in the slides, and why.arrow_forwardThere exist sorting algorithms which can sort any list with N elements in O(N log N) time. True Falsearrow_forwardSelect all the statements that are false, bubble sort is defined below:* Quicksort is the fastest sorting algorithm If you are lucky, you can get O(n) time complexity in Mergesort On the worst case, Bubble sort will give you O(n logn) time complexity Average time complexity of insertion sort is much better than bubble sort Selection sort has the worst space complexity among all the sorting algorithmarrow_forward
- Assume you are playing a card game using a standard 52-card deck. You are dealt a hand of cards that are all the same suit, spades. You are dealt first a 5, then a 3, then 8, and finally 4. You first took the 5 into your hand. Then you put the three before the 5. Next you put the 8 behind the 5. Finally, you put the 4 between the 3 and 5. Which sorting algorithm is most similar to how you sorted your hand? Group of answer choices 1. Quick Sort 2. Insertion Sort 3. Merge Sort 4. Selection Sortarrow_forwardI need to write an algorithm pseudocode that sorts a list of n elements in non-increasing order by finding the largest and smallest elements and exchanging those elements with the elements in the first and last positions. Then the size of the list is reduced by 2, excluding the two elements that are already in the proper positions, and the process is repeated on the remaining part of the list until the entire list is sorted. I also need to analyze the algorithm and show the results using order notation. I was trying to use arguments but I got stuck.arrow_forwardIn computing gcd(125, 332) using Euclid's GCD algorithm, the pair (¿[0], k[0]) = (125,332) is replaced by the pair (j[1], k[1]) after the first iteration. Enter your answer for (j[1], k[1]) in the box below as a comma-separated list. For example, if your answer is (1, 2), then enter 1, 2 (without parenthesis).
