Another recursive algorithm is applied to some data A = (a₁, ..., am) where
m = 2* (i.e. 2, 4, 8,16 ...) where x is an integer ≥ 1. The running time T is
characterised using the following recurrence equations:
T(1) = c when the size of A is 1
T(m) = 2T (2) + c otherwise
Determine the running time complexity of this algorithm.
Give a meaningful loop invariant relating the current values of , r , s, x, and y. (Hint: Look at the GCD loop invariant.) In addition to this invariant being true every time the computation is at the top of the loop, it will also be true every time the computation is between the first and the second step of each iteration. Prove that your algorithm establishes and maintains the loop invariant as stated.
An NP-complete problem is a fascinating kind of problem because till now no one has discovered the
polynomial-time algorithm to solve it and also no one has proved that no polynomial-time algorithm can exist
for any NP-complete problem. It is an open research problem since it was first posed in 1971 to prove P#NP.
The NxN Queens problem can be summarized as follows: putting N chess queens on an N×N chessboard such
that none of them is able to attack any other queen using the standard chess queen's moves (row-column-
diagonal). Thus, a solution requires that no two queens share the same row, column, or diagonal. Solutions exist
only for N = 1 or N 2 4. Use the given function below to test whether a queen is attacked by another or not. You
are not allowed to use any other code to check if a queen is safe.
Implement a backtracking solution for the algorithm in Java that finds all possible solutions for N queens and
measure the execution time it takes for N=4 to 12 and compare them…
