Question

consider the following program where the argument n is a power of 2.The algorithm does not do anything useful.

DO-NOTHING(n)

if n == 1

return 1

for i = 1 to 8

z = DO-NOTHING(n=2)

for i = 1 to n^3

z = 0

(1) Let T (n), the number of times the attribute is z = 0 is executed. Type a recurrence that defines T(n)

(2) exchange line"8" for "7" in the algorithm,if S(n) is the number of times the attribute z = 0is executed in this new algorithm. The class O belongs to S (n)? Give

fairest possible answer and justify it without using the Master Theorem.

Explanation / Answer

a>


0


as z = DO-NOTHING(n=2)

       always recurcively send n=2 and it will go on

b>



0


as z = DO-NOTHING(n=2)

       always recurcively send n=2 and it will go on


no effect on changing the position
