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?

- Multiplying Factors For a pair of integers (x,y) and an integer k, the multiplying factor is defined as minimum positive integer m such that LCM(x,y) * m is divisible by k. Here LCM(x,y) represents the smallest positive integer divisible by both x and y, their least common multiple. Given an array arr of n integers and an integer k, find the sum of multiplying factors over all pairs of integers (arr[i], arr[j]) and k0 <= i,j < n. Example Suppose n=3, arr =[4,5,6] and k=12.

In the maximum sub-array problem, your goal is to determine the sub-array A[x . . . y] of consecutive terms for which the sum of the entries is as large as possible. For example, if A = [−2, −3, 4, −1, −2, 1, 5, −3], the maximum sub-array is [4, −1, 2, 1, 5], and the largest possible sum is S = 4 − 1 − 2 + 1 + 5 = 7. Suppose A = [1, 2, −4, 8, 16, −32, 64, 128, −256, 512, 1024, −2048]. Determine S, the largest possible sum of a sub-array of A.arrow_forward

- Array x is [a, b, c, . . . , y] has 25 integers. To find median of medians we form five sub-arrays: [d, c, b, e, a], [i, f, h, j, g], [1, m, k, n, o], [p, s, q, r, t], [w, x, v, u, y]. We find median from these sub-arrays and generate new sorted array [k, h, q, b, v]. Median of new sorted array is q, so median of medians is q. List all elements guaranteed to be greater or equal to q.arrow_forwardYou are given an array J[1 : n] which includes the scores of n players in a game.
