Program Plan Intro

Dynamic allocator:

Dynamic allocator keeps the heap as a group of several size blocks; each block is an attached portion of virtual memory which is allocated or free.

  • An allocated block has been clearly kept for use by the application.
  • A free block is offered to be allocated.

Two types of allocators:

  1. 1. Explicit allocators
  2. 2. Implicit allocators

Explicit allocators:

Explicit allocators need the application to explicitly free any allocated blocks.

Implicit allocators:

Implicit allocators is the method of automatically releasing vacant allocated blocks. This is also known as garbage collection.

Implicit free list:

In this method, a block contains one word header, payload and additional padding. The header encrypts the block size, which contains header and padding; and check the block is allocated or free.

  • If the arrangement is single-word, the block size is constantly a multiple of “4” and the low-order bits of the block size are always zero.
  • If the arrangement is double word, the block size is constantly a multiple of “8” and the low-order bits of the block size are always zero.
  • Thus, essential to store only the high-order “29 bits” of the block size, freeing the remaining “3 bits” to encrypt other information.
  • Here, smallest significant bits is using to represent the block is allocated or free.

NORMALIZATION PROBLEM: Normalization is one of the most basic preprocessing techniques in data analytics. This involves centering and scaling process. Centering means subtracting the data from the mean and scaling means dividing with its standard deviation. Mathematically, normalization can be expressed as: X-X 0 In Python, element-wise mean and element-wise standard deviation can be obtained by using .mean() and .std() calls. In this problem, create a random 5 x 5 ndarray and store it to variable X. Normalize X. Save your normalized ndarray as X_normalized.npy
Language: C/C++ Q.1 - Write an algorithm that takes an array of characters, with only the characters 1, 2 and only two occurrences of the character 0, and the size of the array that has filled (valid) characters. This algorithm must check that the string that is stored is of the form x0y0x, where x is the inverse of y. (if x= "12221122", y="22112221"). The algorithm must use the Stack functions (create, pop, push, destroy, isempty) Q.2 - Write an algorithm for the Pune operation, which punishes an element on a stack by pushing it back n positions. Assume that the stack is implemented as a simply chained linear list.    Pune (Pilha *p, int n); Q.3 - Write an algorithm that punishes the first element of a row represented in a circular vector, taking it out of the first position and placing it in the middle of the row.P.S: It cannot perform calls to the Insert and Remove function from the queue, the algorithm must perform the operation only with vector manipulation.    void…
in c language as soon as possible 3) give a randomly ordered array of n elements; partition the elements into two arrays such that the elements that are <= mode of the set is one subset and the elements> mode of the set in other subset thease subsets should be created with exact number of elements (use dynamic memory allocation techniques)
