Algorithm Analysis
Start with 102 coins on a table, 98 showing heads and 4 showing tails. There are two ways to
change the coins:
• flip over any ten coins, or
• place n+ 1 additional coins, all showing tails, on the table where n is the number of heads
currently showing on the table.
For example, you might begin by flipping nine heads and one tail, yielding 90 heads and 12 tails,
then add 91 tails, yielding 90 heads and 103 tails.
(a) Model this situation as a state machine, carefully defining the set of states, the start state, and
the possible state transitions.
(b) Optionally, explain how to reach a state with exactly one tail showing.
(c) Consider the following derived variables:
C ::= the number of coins on the table H ::= the number of heads on the table
T::= the number of tails on the table C, ::= parity (C)
H2 ::= parity(H)
T2 ::= parity(T)
Here the parity : Z → {0,1} function is defined as parity(n) = 0 when n is even and 1
otherwise.
Which of these variables is strictly…
A consumer can withdraw up to $500 per day from an ATM. If a customer withdraws more than $300, the service charge is 4%. It tells the consumer of inadequate cash and offers to withdraw the money for a fee of $25.00. The ATM won't let you withdraw money if your account is empty or has a negative balance. If the withdrawal exceeds $500, the ATM informs the customer of the maximum withdrawal amount and refuses the withdrawal. Write an algorithm that allows customers to enter withdrawal amounts. The algorithm then verifies the account balance, debits the customer's account for the amount withdrawn plus any service fees.
Create the algorithm for the following problem:
A company is giving out bonus to the employees relative to the number of years worked. For example, if the person is employed for 1 year or less, bonus is 1%, 2 years is 2%, 3 years is 3% and so on.
Your program will calculate the bonus by asking user for annual salary and number of years worked. Calculate and display the bonus amount. Hint: bonus rate = numofyears/100

- Write an algorithm in pseudocode for the following problem: Write a program that reads a series of daily high temperatures from the keyboard and then prints to the screen the number of days that each high was achieved. Assume that the temperatures will fall between -40 and 110, inclusive. You'll print the temperature and then the number of days for each temperature that was the high at least once. So your output will be in two columns. The key to this is that you'll have an array where the indices of the array represent the temperatures and the contents are the number of days where that temperature was the high.arrow_forwardInstructions for Questions 1 through 6. For each piece of pseudocode, give the runtime in terms of N. Your answer should give an exact value for the number of times the inner loop runs (i.e. the final value of count), and it should also give the order of growth of the runtimes using big-Oh notation. You can assume that N "comes out nicely" with respect to loops. For example, if the loop counts by 2, you can assume it is an even number, and if it multiplies or divides by 2 each time, you can assume it is a power of 2. Note: log(N!) is 0(NlogN).arrow_forwardWrite an algorithm that computes the Body Mass Index (BMI) given the heights and weights of students. The algorithm should first read the total number of students and then read the height and weight of each student to calculate and print the BMI category A student is considered Underweight if the BMI is less than or equal to 18.5; Normal Weight if between 18.5 and 24.9; Overweight if between 25 and 29.9; and Obese if greater than or equal to 30.arrow_forward
- Using Matlab. Monte Carlo methods are a class of computational methods that rely on repeated random sampling to compute their results. In this problem, you will use the Monte Carlo method to estimate the temperature at an arbitrary point in a uniform solid. Specifically, we will consider the solid object shown below. The temperatures of all surfaces are 500 des F with the exception of the two shaded surfaces, which are at 0 deg F. Inputs to the program should be: 1. The number of random walkers. 2. The (x,,2) coordinates of the point at which the temperature is to be estimated. 3. Plot interval (eg., you may want 1,000,000 random walkers in the simulation but may want to plot after every 10,000). Output from the program should be: 1. A graph of the estimated temperature, plotted according to the plot interval 2. Numerical value of the estimated temperature.

He wants to know how much he saves by buying all of his CDs through the club rather than through the music store. The output is the savings. The input is the number of CDs purchased, the club CD price, and thestore CD price. The algorithm should use two processing items: one for the cost of buying the CDs through the club, and the other for the cost of buying the CDs through the store. Write the algorithm using pseudocode.arrow_forward
