For what values of w is this algorithm guaranteed to be optimal?arrow_forwardTwo computer scientists-turned-farmers are planning what and how to plant during the upcoming season. There are four possible courses of action they can take, and they seek advice. In each case the outcome is either NP-complete or it can be calculated in polynomial time. You are tasked to assess the existence of a polynomial time algorithms and explain how it is assessed. If you find one, show it. If you did not find one, explain why one does not exist. There is a total of n tons of seeds to plant, with k number of types of crops, labeled for simplicity as c1, c2, c3, ..., ck. The quantities of each crop are given by 2i, where i ˃ 0 is an integer. The two farmers want to each plant an equal mix of crops.arrow_forward
- Recall the rod cutting problem we discussed in class and in the book. While it might be possible for a theoretical person to cut the rod of length n, up to n times to achieve the maximum possible sale value, enterprising children do not possess the stamina to cut the rod so many times. They instead get tired or bored after only k cuts. Design a dynamic programming algorithm to maximize the value of selling cut rods if at most we can cut the rod k times. Please use elements in the table P to calculate the value of a continuous rod, e.g. an uncut rod of length i has value pi. Further you should analyze: 1. The time complexity of a baseline solution that does not use dynamic programming or memoization that exhaustively explores all potential solutions 2. The time complexity of your dynamic programming solution 3. Describe how you could change your algorithm to so to reconstruct the actual cuts in order achieve the highest value for the rod pieces.arrow_forwardConsider the two versions of Quicksort that are based on the following: (i) Median selection algorithm using the linear-time select method; (ii) The randomized pivot selection algorithm Which of the two algorithms has a faster worst-case asymptotic behavior? Which of the two algorithms has a faster average-case performance? Provide empirical evidence of your answer by writing the corresponding programs for each and conducting experimental evaluation. Your experimental results should provide evidence of your answer. For this you need to run an adequate number of experiments on a variety of array/list sizes (use large randomly generated lists of integers).arrow_forwardAlert: Don't submit AI generated answer.

A school is creating class schedules for its students. The students submit their requested courses and then a program will be designed to find the optimal schedule for all students. The school has determined that finding the absolute best schedule cannot be solved in a reasonablo time. Instead they have decided to use a simpler algorithm that produces a good but non-optimal schedule in a more reasonable amount of time. Which principle does this decision best demonstrate? O A Unreasonable algorithms may sometimes also be undecidable O B. Heuristics can be used to solve some problems for which no reasonable algorithm exsts O C. efficiency Two algorithms that solve the same problem must also have the same O B. Approximate solutions are often identical to optimal solutionsarrow_forward
- Question 15 pap Suppose we have a Monte Carlo algorithm, A, and a deterministic algorithm, B, for testing if the output of A is correct. How can we use A and B to construct a Las Vegas algorithm? Also, if A succeeds with probability ½ and both A and B run O(n) time, what is the expected running time of the Las Vegas algorithm that is produced?
