A certain recursive algorithm takes an input list of n elements. Divides the list into yn sub-lists, each with /n elements. Recursively solves each of these yn smaller sub- instances. Then spends an additional 0(n) time to combine the solutions of these sub- instances to obtain the solution of the main instance. As a base case, if the size of the input list is at most a specified positive constant, then the algorithm solves such a small instance directly in 0(1) time. a) Express the recurrence relation that governs T(n), the time complexity of this algorithm. b) Derive the solution to this recurrence relation: T(n) = 0(?). Mention which methods you used to derive your solution.

Many of the coding interview problems deal with permutations and combinations of a given set of components.1. Backtracking Method: When the subset is added to the resultset, each response is backtracked in this recursive process.An extra array subset's space and time complexity are O(n), respectively (2n). solve the aforementioned issue with Java
Please do not give solution in image format thanku Implement the following recursively using sudo code: Suppose an elevator which is on a floor on n. For this elevator to go from the nth floor to the base(ground) floor, it should go to every floor under the nth floor. Let's consider an elevator on the 4th floor. This elevator 1st comes on the third(3rd) floor. 4th-> 3rd then 3rd-> 2nd then 2->1 and next 1->0(ground floor) The recursive equation defined is F(n)=1+F(n-1)
