Consider the following problem:L is a sorted list containing n signed integers (n being big enough), for example [-5, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 4] (here, nhas a value of 7). If L is known to contain the integer 0, how can you find the index of 0 ?

An Unfair AlgorithmFinding the MWM of a graph is as easy as selecting edges from a list in order, including the edge in matching, and removing all neighbouring edges from the list. This is done by sorting edges according to their weights in a non-increasing sequence.
1. Input: A weighted graph G = (V, E, w)2. Output: A maximal weighted matching M of G
3. M ← Ø
4. sort E and store the list in Q
5. while Q = Ø6. remove first element e from Q7. M ← M ∪ e8. Q ← Q\ { all adjacent edges to e }Let's attempt to use the preceding methods to create this algorithm in Python.

- Let T : P −→ L be a function that inputs a perfect binary tree and outputs a list of vertices, defined as follows. B. If X is a binary tree consisting only of a single vertex v, then T (X ) = v, a list with only one entry. R. If X is a binary tree with root v, left subtree Xl and right subtree Xr , then T (X ) equals the list T (Xl ), T (Xr ), v.arrow_forwardQ# Is a doubly-linked list more or less efficient than a singly-linked list when we consider the worse-case scenario (Big-O complexity) for the following operations: Searching for an item in our list Inserting an item at the beginning of our list (prepend) Deleting an item at the beginning of our list (pop) Group of answer choices A. The extra pointer in the doubly-linked list makes all of these operations less efficient because we can traverse in either direction. B. The doubly-linked list and the singly-linked list actually have the same complexity for these operations. C.

- Let S : S --> {true, false} be a function that inputs a full binary search tree and outputs either true or false, defined as follows. B. If X is a binary search tree consisting only of a single vertex, then S(X ) = true if this vertex equals pork and S(X ) = false otherwise. R. If X is a binary tree with root v, left subtree Xl and right subtree Xr , then S(X ) = true if v equals pork. Otherwise, if v < pork, then S(X ) = S(Xr ). If v > pork, then S(X ) = S(Xl ).arrow_forwardNote: Your solution should have O(n) time complexity, where n is the number of elements in l, and O(1) additional space complexity, since this is what you would be asked to accomplish in an interview. Given a linked list l, reverse its nodes k at a time and return the modified list. k is a positive integer that is less than or equal to the length of l. If the number of nodes in the linked list is not a multiple of k, then the nodes that are left out at the end should remain as-is. You may not alter the values in the nodes - only the nodes themselves can be changed.arrow_forwardCode it. The mergeTwoLists function in my code comes from the problem Merge Two Sorted Listswhose complexity obviously is O(n), n is the sum of length of l1 and l2. To put it simpler, assume the k is 2^x, So the progress of combination is like a full binary tree,from bottom to top. So on every level of tree, the combination complexity is n,because every level have all n numbers without repetition.The level of tree is x, ie log k. So the complexity is O(n log k). for example, 8 ListNode, and the length of every ListNode is x1, x2,x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8, total is n. on level 3: x1+x2, x3+x4, x5+x6, x7+x8 sum: n on level 2: x1+x2+x3+x4, x5+x6+x7+x8 sum: n on level 1: x1+x2+x3+x4+x5+x6+x7+x8 sum: n.arrow_forward
- A sequential search of a sorted list can halt when the target is less than a givenelement in the list. Define a modified version of this algorithm and state thecomputational complexity, using big-O notation, of its best-, worst-, and average-case performances.

If not found, -1return target_indexif __name__ == "__main__":my_list = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]print(sequential_search(my_list, 3)) # Correct Output: 2print(sequential_search(my_list, 0)) # Correct Output: -1arrow_forwardConsider the average case for the following operations on a data of size n 1. finding the maximum of a sorted array 2. finding the maximum in a queue 3. finding the maximum in a binary search tree The operations from fastest to slowest :arrow_forwardSuppose we have a queue Q containing n elements and an element x, describe an algorithm that removes x if x is in Q. Your algorithm should not change the order of other elements. For example, the content of Q is: abcxefg (from front to rear). After x has been removed, the content of Q should be: abcefg.

Answer the following questions about the resulting binary search tree. What is an asymptotic notation that best describes the height of the resulting binary search tree? In a sentence or two, explain why. What is an asymptotic notation that best describes the time required to insert another key into that binary search tree after it's been built, assuming the key was chosen completely at random and not subject to the arrangement described above?
