Transcribed Image Text:The procedure BinarySearch (numList, target) correctly implements a binary search algorithm on the list of numbers numList. The procedure returns an index where target occurs in numList,
or -1 if target does not occur in numList. Which of the following conditions must be met in order for the procedure to work as intended?
A
The length of numList must be even.
B
The list numList must not contain any duplicate values.
The values in numList must be in sorted order.
D
The value of target must not be equal to -1.

- Consider the following list: int list[] = {14, 18, 19, 25, 34, 39, 62, 65, 78, 79, 85, 89, 95} When performing a binary search, the target is first compared with 62 O 95 O 14 O 34arrow_forwarddef sort and_pop(x: list, i: int) -> list: x.sort() return x.pop(i) # Dan's code lst = [23, 17, 3, 13, 11, 5, 7, 2, 19, 1] lst = sort_and_pop(lst, 5) lst = sort_and_pop(lst, 2) II I| || If you run this code, you'll find that it produces an error. Surprise! According to the type contract, Dan's Code should work. But it doesn't, because the function type contract has faulty type annotations. Correct the function type contract so that it's clear from the type contract that Dan's code will not work. (Dan's Code will and should remain an incorrect use of the function!)

- The bubble sort algorithm discussed in class is used to sort the following sequence of integers: 2 16 38 9 4 14 How many passes must the algorithm perform to guarantee the entire sequence is sorted?

What is the list obtained after the final pass?arrow_forwardGiven two arrays of integers, write a function to find the intersection of the arrays. The intersection should include only distinct elements and the result should be in sorted order.

The user is not be asked where the new node should be inserted. Delete a node: a) When the List is empty b) From the beginning of the List c) From the end of the List d) From somewhere between the beginning and the end of the List. The DELTE algorithm is to determine where the targeted node is placed in the List. The user is not be asked about the location of the targeted node. Search for a node and display its contents. The Search is done based on a key field from the node (i.e a name, or an ID) The Search algorithm is to locate the targeted node and to display it The user is not be asked about the location of the targeted node.…arrow_forward
