A unimodal array is an array that has a sequence of monotonically increasing integers followed by a sequence of monotonically decreasing integers, assuming all elements in the array are unique. Example: А- (4, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11, 7, 3, 2, 1}: A is a unimodal array because there is an increasing sequence followed by a decreasing sequence and the maximum element is 11. B= {11, 9, 8, 7, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1}: B is not a unimodal array because there is no increasing sequence It is simply a decreasing sequence and the maximum element is 11. C= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 11}: C is not a unimodal array because There is an increasing sequence, but there is no decreasing sequence and the maximum element is 11. Design an efficient algorithm with the lowest possible complexity to state whether a given array is unimodal or not, and explain why your algorithm is efficient. Analyze the complexity of your algorithm.
16. Given an n-element array with n > 100, is it possible to find an algorithm that can find an element that is neither the maximum nor the minimum with fewer than 10 comparisons? (a) yes (b) no
Given an 8-element array: A = {x1, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6, 7, x8}, we would like to find its 3rd smallest element. It is known that x₁ and 8 are the two extreme elements: max and min, but we do not know which one is the max and which one is the min. It is also known that x4 and x5 are the two medians: left-median and right-median. What is the minimum number of comparisons you need to find the 3rd smallest element of the original array? Ans:
