[algogeeks] Re: algorithm
@Sony. I took (2/3)*rand5() as if (2/3) was a double. Otherwise, (2/3)*rand5() = 0*rand5() = 0, which is not what you calculated when you wrote 2*(i/3) instead of (2/3)*i. And yes, the fact that the distribution is not uniform does matter, since we want the results to be uniform. Using your interpretation of (2/3)*rand5(), to get i = 1, the first rand5() must be 1 and the second rand5() must be 1 or 2. Thus, the probability of i = 1 is 1/5 * 2/5 = 2/25. To get i = 2, the first rand5() must be 2 and the second rand5() must be 1 or 2. Thus, i = 2 also with probability 1/5 * 2/5 = 2/25. For i = 3, either the first rand5() must be 1 and the second rand5() must be 3, 4, or 5, or the first rand5 must be 3 and the second rand5() must be 1 or 2. Thus, i = 3 with probability 1/5 * 3/5 + 1/5 * 2/5 = 1/5. Continuing in this way, we see that the probabilities of the various results are 2/25, 2/25, 1/5, 1/5, 1/5, 3/25, 3/25. These are not uniform!

[algogeeks] Re: algorithm
@Debajyoti. There are 25 possible values of 5*rand5() + rand5(). The largest multiple of 7 not exceeding 25 is 3*7. Thus, I divide by 3. The largest number n such that n/3 = 7 is 23. This is where the 3 and 23 come from. You might google rejection method to find fuller descriptions of the theory behind these methods.

Re: [algogeeks]
No it won't it will just reduce the height of tree to n/2 (from n). My algo- 1. Parse in triplets. For every 3 nodes make the second one parent of other two. Also, queue up such parents. 2. repeat step 1 till you have only 1 node left (root). But this may give a tree 'imbalanced at root. we may need to do some height re-balancing. -Thanks On Sun, Aug 1, 2010 at 9:26 AM, Manjunath Manohar manjunath.n...@gmail.comwrote: find the middle of the list and make it as the root..thus i this maner u will get a balanced tree.. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Algorithm Geeks group.
