Algorithm and its Runtime Analysis

Algorithm: An algorithm is any well-defined computational procedure that takes some value, or set of values, as input and produces some value, or set of values as output.


Simple Algorithm

Run-time algorithm specialization is a methodology for creating efficient algorithms for costly computation tasks of certain kinds. The methodology originates in the field of automated theorem proving and, more specifically, in the Vampire theorem prover project.One of the most important aspects of an algorithm is how fast it is. It is often easy to come up with an algorithm to solve a problem, but if the algorithm is too slow, it's back to the drawing board. Since the exact speed of an algorithm depends on where the algorithm is run, as well as the exact details of its implementation, computer scientists typically talk about the runtime relative to the size of the input.

Approximate completion time for algorithms, N = 100
O(Log(N))10-7 seconds
O(N)10-6 seconds
O(N*Log(N))10-5 seconds
O(N2)10-4 seconds
O(N6)3 minutes
O(2N)1014 years.
O(N!)10142 years.

Object-Oriented Programming and JAVA Programming Language

  Object-Oriented Programming and:   Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm using "objects" – data structures consisting of data fields and methods together with their interactions – to design applications and computer programs. Programming techniques may include features such as data abstraction, encapsulation, messaging, modularity, olymorphism, and inheritance. Many modern programming languages now support OOP, at least as an option. JAVA Programming Language: Object-oriented programming is at the core of Java. In fact, all Java programs are object-oriented, this isn’t an option the way that it is in C++, for example. OOP is so integral to Java that you must understand its basic principles before you can write even simple Java programs. Therefore, this chapter begins with a discussion of the theoretical aspects of OOP.

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IDENTIFIER AND KEYWORD

Identifier keyword Identifiers are names that are given to various program elements, such as variable, function and arrays. C take some reserved word called keyword, they have predefine meaning in C. Identifiers consist of letters and digits. Keyword consist only letter. Identifier’s first character must be a letter. Keyword’s all character is letter. Identifiers Upper and lowercase letter is use. Keywords are all lowercase. Upper and lowercase are not equivalent. Upper and lowercase are also not equivalent. Like: X, sum_5, _weather etc. But 4 th is not identifier cause identifier first character must a letter. Like: auto, short, long etc.

Absolute value and Floating-point absolute value function in C Programming Language

Absolute value function in C Programming Language is abs(i), Its return the absolute valu of i. where  i  is any positive or negative  number. It is integer type function. The include file of abs(i) is stslib.h Observe under program: #include<stdio.h> #include<stdlib.h> int main(void) { int a; scanf("%d",&a); printf("%d",abs(a)); } Here I use a integer number. Input it by scanf and print the Absolute value by abs() function. Floating-point Absolute value function in C Programming Language is fabs(i), Its return the absolute valu of i. where  i  is any positive or negative  Floating-point number. It is double integer type function. The include file of fabs(i) is math.h Observe under program: #include<stdio.h> #include<stdlib.h>  int main(void) { float a; scanf("%f",&a); printf("%.2f",fabs(a)); } Here I use a integer number. Input it by scanf and print the Floating-point Absolute value b...
