T1 : Solution
(a)
f(n) = Q(n), g(n) = O(n), h(n) = Q(n)
Then [f(n) g(n)] + h(n)
f(n) = (n)
i.e. f(n) should be anything greater than or equal to n lets take n.
g(n) = O(n)
i.e. g(n) should be less than or equal to n lets take n.
h(n) = (n)
i.e. h(n) should be equal to n.
So [f(n) g(n)] + h(n)
[n n] + n
= n2 + n = (n)
Here we only comment about lower bound. Upper bound depend an the g(n) value i.e. n2, n3, n4... etc.
T2 : Solution
(b)
max-heapify (int A[ ], int n, int i)
{
int P, m;
P = i;
while (2P n) 11 for checking left child present or not if left child not this then no need to apply the
below produces A[2P + 1] > A[2P]
{
if ((2P+1) n) for checking right child present or not between left and right child which is greater.
n = 2P+1;
else m = 2P;

if (A[P] < A[m])

{
Swap (A[P], A[m]);
P=m
}
else
return;
}
}
T3 : Solution
(a)
find (int n)
{
if (n < 2) then return;
else
{
sum = 0;
for (i = 1; i 4; i++) find(n/2); O(log n)
for (i = 1; i n* n; i++)
O(n2)
sum = sum +1;
}
}
Since first for loop run 4log n times and second for loop run n2 times.
So total time complexity = O(4log n + n2) = O(n2).
T4 : Solution
(c)
We knwo finding kth smallest by build heap method klog k time i.e. O(n) time to build then kth element find
at kth level in worst case.
So O(n) + O(klog k) = O(klog k)
Here in this questions worst case i = n 1 assume.
So to find n1th smallest element it will take n1(log n1) time which is asspmtotically = O(nlog n)

(i) Remove the smallest element from each list and build min heap with k-elements O(k).
(ii) Extract the minimum elements from this heap that will be the next smallest in the resulted list
O(logk).
(iii) Remove the elements from original list where we have extracted next smallest element and insert into
the heap O(logk).
Repeat step2 and step3 until all elements are in the resulted list
= O(k) + [O(logk) + O(logk)] O(n)
= O(n logk)
T7 : Solution
Insertion sort takes (k2) time per k-element list in worst case. Therefore sorting n/k lists of k-element each
take (k2n / k) = (nk) time in worst case.

The given problem related to some of subset problem which is np-complete problem taking exponantial
time complexity = O(nn).
T4 : Solution
In question already given graph T is minimum cost spanning tree. By decreasing the weight of any edge in
the graph should not change the minimum cost spanning tree.
So there is no need to check again for minimum spanning tree. It will take O(1) time.

T5 : Solution
Let e be an edge of G but not in T
(i) Run DFS on T {e}
(ii) Find cycle
(iii) Trace back edges and find edge e thus has maximum weight.
(iv) Remove e from T {e} to get MST
In T {e} Number of eges = Number of vertices
Running time of DFS = O(V+E) = O(V)

{
printf (stack overflow);
exit (1);
}
else
Ti++;
S[Ti] = x;
}
P
Ti = = (i + 1) 1 indicate the last location of the array is already filled. So overflow occur.
Q
T4 : Solution
(a)
Number of push operations = n(insert) + m(delete) = n + m
So, n + m x but there are maximum 2n insert operations so n + m x 2n
...(1)
Number of pop operations = n + m

But there are 2m delete operations which are less than no. of pop operations, hence
2m n + m
...(2)
From (1) and (2): n + m x 2n and 2m n + m

T5 : Solution
Formula to find location of a[20] [20] [30] = 10 + {[(20 1) (30 1) (40 1)] + (20 1) (30 1) + (30 1)}
= [10 + (19 29 39) + (19 29) + (29)]
= 10 + 21489 + 551 + 29
= 10 + 22069

Now missing edges are: 1 to 5, 4 to 5, 4 to 6, 3 to 6, 3 to 5, 3 to 4 for 1 to 5 = d(u) d(v)

(Distance from 2 to 1) (Distance from 2 to 5)

So 2 is not possible
So ans is (d)
T2 : Solution
Sorting the array using binary search tree will take O(n) time i.e. inorder sequence.
Sorting the array using min heap tree will take O(nlog) time i.e. O(n) time to build and log n time to get every
minimum element. So O(n) + O(nlog n) = O(nlog n).
In the giving question binary search tree is better than min heap tree. By n log n time.
T3 : Solution
In adjancy list representation of directed graph to find the out degree of each bertax will take O(n2) time in
worst case i.e. for an element we have to search n time.
T4 : Solution
In adjancy matrix representation of directed graph to find universal sink will take O(n3) time i.e. for n2
elements we have to check n time.

A(n)
{
for (i = 1 to n)
{
if (n mod i = = 0)
{
for (j = 1 to n)
printf(j)
}
= O(n/2) = O(n)
= O(n)
}
Time complexity = O(n) O(n) = O(n2).
T2 : Solution
main( )
{
int i = 3;
switch (i)
{
default : printf(zero)
Case 1 : printf(one)
break
Case 2 : printf(two)
break
Case 3 : printf(three)
break
}
}
Since i = 3 so switch (3) will go to case 3 and run the program only one time.
So time complexity = O(1).

declare x as a function returning pointer to array of pointer to function returning char.
(ii) Char (*(*x[3])( ) [5];
declare x as array 3 of pointer to function returning pointer to array 5 of char.
(iii) Void (*b*int, void (*f)(int))) (int);
Syntac error
(iv) Void (*ptr)(int (*)[2], int(*)(void));
Syntax error
T5 : Solution

Char \ 0
if (0)
Printf(% S, a) = Null = 0
So condition false
So answer is else part string is not empty.
T6 : Solution
1st for loop run 1 to n = n times.
2nd for loop run log n times from n to 1.
3rd for loop run log n times for log n.
So,
1st
2nd
log n
log n
log n
...log n
3rd
log log n
log log n
log log n
...log log n
Time complexity = O(n)(log n + log log n) = O(n log n).
