Find the union of differences of two sets of numbers (A – B) U (B – A). Your algorithm's time complexity should be 0(n log n) or better. If your algorthm's time complexity is worse than O(n log n), you will receive half of the points at most. Prove your algorithm's time complexity. Algorithm FindUnion0f Diff(A[0 ... n – 1], B[0..m – 1]) // Input: Arrays A[1..n] and B[1..n] whose elements are unique ( A and B are sets). // Array A and array B are appeneded and assigned to array C.The index i is used for array C, //Output: Array R What is the time complexity of the algorithm for the worst case?
A certain recursive algorithm takes an input list of n elements. Divides the list into Vn sub-lists, each with yn elements. Recursively solves each of these yn smaller sub- instances. Then spends an additional 0(n) time to combine the solutions of these sub- instances to obtain the solution of the main instance. As a base case, if the size of the input list is at most a specified positive constant, then the algorithm solves such a small instance directly in 0(1) time. a) Express the recurrence relation that governs T(n), the time complexity of this algorithm. b) Derive the solution to this recurrence relation: T(n) = 0(?). Mention which methods you used to derive your solution.
You are given a collection of n bolts of different widths and n corresponding nuts. You are allowed to try a nut and bolt together, from which you can determine whether the nut is larger than the bolt, smaller than the bolt, or matches the bolt exactly. However, there is no way to compare two nuts together or two bolts together. The problem is to match each bolt to each nut. Design an algorithm for this problem with Θ(n log n) average-case complexity (in terms of nut-bolt comparisons). Explain why your algorithm has Θ(n log n) average case complexity.

There are n different sizes of boxes, from 1 to n. There is an unlimited supply of boxes of each size t, each with a value vt . A box of size t can hold several smaller boxes of sizes a1, a2, . . . , ak as long as the sum of sizes a1 + a2 + . . . + ak is strictly less than t. Each of these boxes may be filled with yet more boxes, and so on. Design an algorithm which runs in O(n2 ) time and finds the maximum value that can be attained by taking one box, potentially with smaller boxes nested inside it.
