Question

13 GB) 35 49 62 (66) 80 pointers from each of the next stage By the same reasoning, the sub at elements to the node 49 The resulting structure is usually drawn with rigid pointers, giving it an u down tree-like shape: 62 It is called a binary search tree and is a special kind of bina tree, which is the structure studied in the rest of this chapter. Exercises 12.1 Exercises 1-5 use the following array critter: 0 1 3 4 5 7 critter[i] auk bat T cow T eel elk T fox T gnu pig rat Give the indices of the elements of critter in the order that the c examined during a binary search for 1. gnu 2. eel 3. fly 4, ant 5. yak

Explanation / Answer

int BinarySearch(String A[], int F, int L, String value)

{ int m;

while( F <= L )

    {

        m = F + (L-l)/2;

if( A[m] == value ) // if A[m]==key then return m

            return m;

if( A[m] < value ) // second comparison

            F = m + 1;

        else

            L = m - 1;

    }

return -1;

F=0 and L=8

mid= (0+8)/2 =4

critters[4] != gnu (critters[4]< gnu)

                    F =mid+1 =5, L=8

                   mid= (5+8)/2 =6

                  critters[6] == gnu

so gnu would go through the indices 4 -> 6

2 ) eel

F=0 and L=8

mid= (0+8)/2 =4

critters[4] != eel (critters[4]> eel)

                    L =mid-1 =3, F=0

                    Mid= (0+3)/2 =1

critters[1] != eel (critters[1]< eel)

                    F=mid+1=2, L=3

                    Mid=(2+3)/2 =2

critters[2] != eel (critters[1]< eel)

                    F=3, L=3 , Mid=3

critters[3]==eel

                     so eel would go through the indices 4 -> 1 -> 2 -> 3

3) fly

F=0 and L=8

mid= (0+8)/2 =4

critters[4] != fly (critters[4]< fly)

                    F =mid+1 =5, L=8

                   mid= (5+8)/2 =6

critters[6] !=fly (critters[6]> fly)

                        F=5,L=5

Mid =5

                              Critters[5] !=fly

                             exit

so fly would go through the indices 4 -> 6 -> 5

4) ant

  

F=0 and L=8

                    mid= (0+8)/2 =4

critters[4] != ant (critters[4]> ant)

                    L =mid-1 =3, F=0

                    Mid= (0+3)/2 =1

critters[1] != ant (critters[1]> ant)

                    L=mid-1=0, F=0

                    Mid=(0+0)/2 =0                         

critters[0] != ant

exit

so ant would go through the indices 4 -> 1 -> 0

5) yak

F=0 and L=8

                           mid= (0+8)/2 =4

                            critters[4] != yak (critters[4]< yak)

                    F =mid+1 =5, L=8

                   mid= (5+8)/2 =6

                      critters[6] !=yak (critters[6]< yak)

                        F=7,L=8

                           Mid =7

                              Critters[7] !=yak

                            F=8,L=8

                          Mid=8

                              Critters[8] !=yak

exit

so yak would go through the indices 4 -> 6 -> 7->8
