Chapter 9, Problem 7TF
Explanation of Solution
Python “set”:
- • Python set is used to create the unordered collection of unique objects.
- • The built in “set()” function is used in python to create the sets.
- • The “set()” function can take the arguments to initialize the set.
- • If multiple copies of values are passed in the argument list, only one copy will be stored in the list.
- • To create an empty set, leave the argument list of “set()” empty.
Syntax:
In python, a set is created as follows:
setName = set(elementList)
In the above syntax,
- • The “setName” specifies the name of the set variable.
- • The “elementList” is the initial element list to create the set.
- • The “set()” method is used to create the set...

- Homework Assignment-1Topics: Functions, Dictionary, ImportProblem description: Write a python application to simulate an online clothing system. Thepurpose of this assignment is to gain experience in Python dictionary structure, create basicPython functions and import a module.Design solution: The template file contains a list of clothes item sold, each item in the listcontains the item id, name of the item and the prices. The program will generate an items_dictwhere each key is the item id of the cloth and the values will be a list of item name and priceinformation. A customer will be presented with a main menu with 4 different options: displayall items, add an item to cart, checkout and exit the program. A customer can buy an item byentering the ID of the item. This program implements a dictionary called cart, where each key isthe item id and the values are the list of name, price and quantity that user chooses topurchase. The program keeps repeating by displaying the main menu to…arrow_forwardCount 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. Your workload…arrow_forwardvoid dict_clear (dict_t* dict); This function clears the dictionary dict, destroying each pair key/value, but does not destroy dict itself (remember that dict was allocated using dict_create, so it will need to be freed at some point, but this is not this function’s job.) This is now the function that frees (destroys) a dictionary: void dict_destroy (dict_t* dict); This operates just as dict_clear, but in addition should free the memory that was allocated during dict_create. After a call to this function, if any other library function receives the pointer dict, the behavior is undefined (most likely, it will crash). This simple function returns the current size of the dictionary: size_t dict_size (const dict_t* dict);arrow_forward
- Exercise: empty_dictionary Description In this exercise, your function will receive no parameters. It will create an empty dictionary and return it. Function Name empty_dictionary Parameters None Return Value An empty dictionary. Examples empty_dictionary() > 0)arrow_forwardA feature of our Set ADT is that it is a collection that allows duplicate elements.arrow_forwardMedian Function – In statistics, the median of a set of values is the value that lies in the middle when the values are arranged in sorted order. If the set has an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values. Your program should start with two arrays of integers containing the following values: Even numbered array: 17 32 45 68 99 101 67 89 22 27 Odd numbered array: 17 32 45 68 99 101 67 89 22 Using a sort function of your choice, first sort the arrays. NOTE: you may use the Standard Template Library sort function or your own sort function. Then, write a function that determines the median of a sorted array. The function should take an array of numbers and an integer indicating the size of the array and return the median of the values in the array. The same function should be called twice – once for the even array and once for the odd array. Your program should also have a printArray function that can be used to print the sorted array.

- U={A,B,C,D,E,F}, A={A,B,D,E}, B={B,C,E,F}, and C={A,B,C,D} complete the following set operations: 1(A'n B) uC' 2. A n (Bu C;)arrow_forwardInput Parameters: sea: an array of integers indices': an array of integers (each of which may or may not be a valid index for sea") Assumptions: sea may be empty. indices may be empty. *indices may contain duplicates. What to return? - For each integer value in 'indices', if it is a valid index for input array ssa', then use it to index into 'sea' and include the result in the output array. For example: Say ssa' is (23, 46, 69} and indices' is (2, -1, 0, 3, 0, 2} (where indices -1 and 3 are invalid, so only indices 2, 0, 0, 2 are used) Then the method should return (69, 23, 23, 69} Note: Order of elements in the output array corresponds to the order in which valid indices in the 'indices' array are arranged. That is, the output array may be empty if the input array sea is empty, or if the input array indices does not contain any valid indices. See the JUnit tests related to this method. */ public static int () task1(int ) seq, int () indices) { int (] result - null; return result;arrow_forward3. lookup_friends_heights This function takes a friends database (a list of dictionaries, like the previous functions) and a list of friends names, and it returns a list of heights for the specified friends. If a given friend's name is not present in the friends database, we put a None in the corresponding slot. We assume that there will be at most one friend with a given name in the list. You may want to use nested for-loops for this function. Sample calls should look like this. >>> lookup_friends_heights([{"name":"todd","height":170},{"name": "sarah","height":165},{"name":"dweezil","height":175}], ["dweezil", "sarah"]) [175, 165] >>> lookup_friends_heights([{"name": "todd","height":170},{"name": "sarah","height":165},{"name": "dweezil", "height":175}], ["sarah", "elíza", "dweezil"]) [165, None, 175]arrow_forward
