*Let w(n) and A(n) denote respectively, the worst case and average case running time of an algorithm executed on an input of size n. which of the following is ALWAYS TRUE?* (A) [image: A(n) = \Omega(W(n))] (B) [image: A(n) = \Theta(W(n))] (C) [image: A(n) = O(W(n))] (D) [image: A(n) = o(W(n))]

Because you can always find a positive constant c for which following inequality hold true. A(n) = cW(n) i.e. the avg. case time complexity always upper bounded by worst case time complexity. Which is the definition of Big O. On Sat, Aug 25, 2012 at 7:11 PM, rahul sharma

You have to discard option d because , according to definition of small o notation if f(n) =o(g(n)) then for ALL constants c 0 you have f(n) cg(n). or Lim(n-infinite) f(n)/g(n) = 0. On Sat, Aug 25, 2012 at 10:24 PM, vishal yadav vishalyada...@gmail.comwrote: Because you can always find a

How about using rand()%n ?? Like, calculate lucky_pos = rand()%n Then print word at lucky_pos th position... Am I missing anything? All words are still equiprobable to get printed right? On Aug 20, 2012 11:45 AM, Dave dave_and_da...@juno.com wrote: @Navin: Okay. Here is a paraphrase. Assume

@Kunal: Yes. You are missing that you don't know the number of words in the file in advance. So, to use your method, you would have to read the file once to find n, and then read through it again to select the lucky_pos th word. The method I proposed only requires reading the file once.
