Sort-by-Length Write a function sort_by_length (words: List[str]) -> List[str] that returns a list of words, sorted by the length of each word and if some words have the same length, sort them alphabetically. For example, sort_by_length(['this', 'is', 'a', 'test', 'for', 'sorting', 'by', 'length']) == ['a', 'by You can see that the given list is sorted by the length of each word. The shortest word 'a' is in the first position. The by and is have the same length but b comes before i. How do you implement this function? Here are some steps you can follow: 1. Start with an empty list length_word_tuples 2. For each word, create a tuple where its first element is the length of the word and the second argument is the word itself e.g. (4, 'this'). Append the tuple into length_word_tuples. 3. Sort the list length_word_tuples using sorted() function. What is the type of each element of length_word_tuples? How is this different from calling sorted (words)? 4. Create another empty list called ans. 5. Use a for loop with a tuple assignment i.e. (1, w) to extract each word-length pair from length_word_tuples. Append each w to ans. 6. Finally, return the list ans.

Count dominators def count_dominators(items): An element of items is said to be a dominator if every element to its right (not just the one element that is immediately to its right) is strictly smaller than it. By this definition, the last item of the list is automatically a dominator. This function should count how many elements in items are dominators, and return that count. For example, dominators of [42, 7, 12, 9, 13, 5] would be the elements 42, 13 and 5. Before starting to write code for this function, you should consult the parable of "Shlemiel the painter" and think how this seemingly silly tale from a simpler time relates to today's computational problems performed on lists, strings and other sequences. This problem will be the first of many that you will encounter during and after this course to illustrate the important principle of using only one loop to achieve in a tiny fraction of time the same end result that Shlemiel achieves with two nested loops.

Write a python code 2) Write a function listsort which accepts a list as a parameter, and sorts it in ascending order. You can use any standard sorting algorithm, but don’t use built-in sort methods and functions. The function must sort and return the list.
#### Part 1 Write a Python function (`binary_search`) that implements the binary search algorithm. This function will take a list argument (`values`), a value to search for (`to_find`), a start index (`start_index`), and an end index (`end_index`). The function will return `True` if `to_find` is present in `values`, and `False` otherwise. Below, you will find some code to test your binary search: ```python values = [2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20] print(binary_search(values, 14, 0, len(values) - 1)) print(binary_search(values, 7, 0, len(values) - 1)) ``` The output of the test code is below: ``` True False ``` #### Part 2 Modify your `binary_search` function to count the number of comparisons (==, <, <=, >, or >=). The function will now return both the number of comparisons made and the `True` or `False` result. The code below calls your function, and creates a simple ASCII bar chart of the number of comparisons (divided by 10, to account for small differences). Some…
Most common names Write a function mostCommonName(L:List[str]) -> List[str] that takes a list of names (such as ["Jane", "Aaron", "Cindy", "Aaron"], and returns the most common name in this list (in this case, "Aaron"). If there is more than one such name, return a list of the most common names, in any order. That is, mostCommonName(["Jane", "Aaron", 'Jane", "Cindy", "Aaron"]) returns, for example, the list ["Aaron", "Jane" ]. If the input list is empty, return an empty list. Also, names are case- sensitive i.e. "Jane" and "JANE" are different names. assert set (mostCommonName(["Jane", "Aaron", "Jane", "Cindy", "Aaron"])) == set ( ["Ai assert set (mostCommonName(["A", "B", "C", "a", "B"])) set(["B"]) assert mostCommonName([]) == [] Your Answer: 1 # Put your answer here 2 Submit ==
two_sum is a Python function that takes in a list of integers (elements) and an integer number (num) and returns True if there exist two values in elements that add up to num, otherwise, function returns False. def two_sum(elements: List[int], num: int): for i in range(len(elements)): for j in range(i + 1): if elements[i] + elements[j] == num: return True return False Study above function and answer below questions: A. What is time complexity of two_sum? B. Is it possible to improve on above algorithm performance (in terms of its asymptotic cost)? If yes, describe your algorithm, be detailed as much as possible.
onsider an input string TAM of letters ‘A’, ‘M’, and ‘T’. This string, which is given by the user, ends with ‘#’. It should be stored in a table (or array), called TAMUK. The number of each of these letters is unknown. We have a function, called SWAP(TAM,i,j), which places the ith letter in the jth entry of string TAM and the jth letter in the ith entry of TAM. Note that SWAP(TAM,i,j) is defined for all integers i and j between 0 and length(TAM)–1, where length(TAM) is the number of letters of TAM. 1. Using our algorithmic language, write an algorithm, called Sort_TAM, which sorts the letters in the array TAMUK in a way that all T’s appear first, followed by all A’s, and followed by all M’s. The algorithm Sort_TAM should have one parameter: The array TAMUK. Also, your solution is correct only if the following four constraints are satisfied: - Constraint 1: Each letter (‘A’, ‘M’, or ‘T’) is evaluated only once. - Constraint 2: The function SWAP(TAM,i,j) is used only when it is…
C language. Function write the arraylist_sort function This generic function sorts an array list using the given compare function. l An array list compare Pointer to the function which compares two elements If you cannot write down a generic function which works for all types, write down a function which sorts resturants. If you cannot use function pointers, you can write down multiple functions which sort using different criteria.
Recamán's sequence def recaman(n): Compute and return the first n terms of the Recamán's sequence, starting from the term a1 = 1.Note how the definition for the current next element depends on whether a particular number is already part of the previously generated part of the sequence. To let your function execute in a speedy fashion even when generating a sequence that contains millions of elements, you should use a set to keep track of which values are already part of the previously generated sequence. This way you can generate each element in constant time, instead of having to iterate through the entire previously generated list. The better technique that saves time by using more memory can create this list arbitrarily far in linear time, and should therefore be fast even for millions of elements, at least until it runs out of memory. n Expected result 10 [1, 3, 6, 2, 7, 13, 20, 12, 21, 11] 1000000 (a list of million elements whose last five elements are [2057162,1057165,…
Language: JAVA Script Write a recursive function called 'shortestToLongest' which takes an array of lowercase strings and returns them sorted from shortest to longest. Strings of equal length should be sorted alphabetically. (Hint: stri <str2 will return true if str1 comes before str2 alphabetically) Your function should accept a default argument called 'sorted' which holds the currently sorted elements. Each recursive step should add the shortest string in the strings array to the end of 'sorted'. // Examples: // Sorts strings from shortest to longestlet strings1 = ["abc", "de", " ", "f", "ghijk", "Imno"] shortestToLongest (strings1);// [' ', 'f', 'de', 'abc', 'lmno', 'ghijk'] // Accepts a pre-sorted default parameter let strings2 = ["pomegranate", "persimmon", "peach"]; let sorted ["pea", "pear"];shortestToLongest (strings2, sorted); // ['pea", "pear', 'peach', 'persimmon', 'pomegranate'] // Sorts strings of the same length alphabetically let strings3 = ["dog", "cat",…
Remove Char This function will be given a list of strings and a character. You must remove all occurrences of the character from each string in the list. The function should return the list of strings with the character removed. Signature: public static ArrayList<String> removeChar(String pattern, ArrayList<String> list) Example:list: ['adndj', 'adjdlaa', 'aa', 'djoe']pattern: a Output: ['dndj', 'djdl', '', 'djoe']
Sort Unique Write a function 'SortUnique(strArr). It should accept an array of strings as input and return a single string containing the sorted unique elements of the input strings. For example, SortUnique(["Research", "Square"]) should return "RSacehqrsu". Examples Input: ["Research", "Square"] Output: RSacehqrsu Input: ["banana", "bandana"] Output: abdn 1 2 3 7 def Sortunique(strArr): #code goes here return strArr #keep this function call here print (SortUnique (input()))
Insert and merge: Write a function insert_and_merge : (’a * int) list -> ’a * int -> (’ a * int) list = that takes a (’a * int) list, sorted in increasing order with respect to the first tuple value we call the key, and an element ’a * int. The function inserts the element at the appropriate position so the list remains sorted and outputs said list. Assume there are no duplicate keys and thus if the new element has the same key as another element in the list, the function sums their values instead. Sorting the list is not allowed. (in oCaml)
