Question No.1:
For the following code segment, provide line-by-line analysis and construct function T(n) that give the runtime of this code as a function of "n". Also determine the big-O for this code segment. [Marks: 5+3+2]
Question No.2:
Which of the following two functions is faster?
a) f1 = 10n2
b) f2 = n3
Question No.3:
In the context of 2D Maxima problem, Brute Force algorithm runs in Θ(n2) time and Plane-Sweep algorithm runs in Θ(nlog2n) time. For n = 500,000, if Plane-Sweep takes 1 second, how much time (in hours) Brute Force algorithm will take? Calculate and show all the steps.
Note: Base of log is 2 (e.g. log210 = 3.321928095)
