A histogram is a visual representation of the distribution of quantitively data. You are given a histogram represented by an array arr [], Where each of the array's elements represents the height of the bar in the histogram. All the bars have unit width, i.e., 1 unit. Your task is to determine the largest rectangle area possible in a given histogram, where the largest rectangle is made up of several consecutive bars with heights displayed in an array. Input / Output Scenario Let's understand the below input-output scenario with a diagram: Input: arr[] = [40, 10, 20, 50, 60, 30] ...

To remove an item from a C++ STL vectors by value, you can use the std::remove inside the argument of erase method of the vector. There are some other methods as well. In this article, we will learn all the approaches to remove an item from a C++ STL vector. The easiest way to remove an item from a vector is to use the std::remove algorithm inside the erase method of the vector. For example: vector v = {1, 2, 2, 3, 2, 5}; // Remove all occurrences of 2 v.erase(remove(v.begin(), v.end(), 2), v.end()); Remove an ...

Booth's algorithm is a multiplication algorithm that multiplies two signed binary numbers in 2's complement notation. Booth used desk calculators that were faster at shifting than adding and created the algorithm to increase their speed. In this article, we have an array of multiplicand bits and an array of multiplier bits. Our task is to use Booth's algorithm to find the multiplication of these two binary numbers. Example of Booth's Algorithm In this example, we have used Booth's algorithm to calculate the multiplication of two signed binary numbers mathematically. Input: Multiplier(M): 01011 = 11 Multiplicand(Q): 01110 = 14 ...

In every C/C++ program, execution starts from the main() function. Defining multiple main() functions will result in a compilation error. Can main() be Overloaded in C++? No, we cannot overload the main() function in C++ because main() serves as the entry point of any C++ program and must follow a predefined prototype. While C++ does support function overloading (i.e., multiple functions with the same name but different parameters), this does not apply to the main() function. If you try to create multiple main() functions will result in a compilation error due to invalid overloading. The following are the only two ...

Boolean Literals In C++, Boolean literals are the values, which are assigned to variables of the Boolean data type. A Boolean literal represents two values: true or false,  which are internally represented as 1 and 0 respectively. A Boolean literal occupies 1 byte (8 bits) of memory and is used for conditions, flags and logical checks. Declaring Boolean Variables  You can declare the boolean variables and assign the boolean literals to them by the given following. In this variable1 and variable2 is assigned with boolean literals true and false respectively in C++. bool variable1 = true; bool variable2 = false; ...

Dynamic arrays are a type of array that can change their size when new elements are added or removed. They are created using pointers and memory management operators like new and delete. In this article, we will learn how to create and use a dynamic array in C++. What is Dynamic Array? A dynamic array is an array that can change its size during runtime. This is different from a static arrays, which have a fixed size determined by the programmer at compile time. Dynamic arrays are used when the size of the array is not known at compile ...

The fmax() and fmin() functions in C++ are used to check the maximum or minimum of two floating-point numbers. These functions are defined under the header file of the C++ standard library. C++ fmax() function The fmax() is used to compare and return the larger of two floating-point values. These floating point values can be float, double, and long double. Syntax data_type fmax(data_type value_1, data_type value_2); Here, data_type could be float, double and long double. C++ fmin() function The fmin() is used to compare and return the smaller of two floating-point values. These floating point values can be float, ...

The Naor-Reingold pseudo-random function uses a mathematical formula for generating random numbers using an array of secret keys('a') and bits of an input number('x'). The generated random numbers can be repeated based on the array of secret keys. In this article, our task is to generate random numbers using the Naor-Reingold pseudo-random function. Formula of Naor-Reingold function The formula for generating random numbers using Naor-Reingold Pseudo-Random Function is given below: Example Here is an example of generating 5 random numbers using Naor-Reingold Function: Input: p = 31, g = 3, n = 4, a = [1, ...

There are two time periods provided in the form of hours, minutes and seconds. Then their difference is calculated. For example: Time period 1 = 8:6:2 Time period 2 = 3:9:3 Time Difference is 4:56:59 C++ Program to Find Difference Between Two Times To find the time differences then check whether we need to borrow time, for example, adding 60 seconds if the second time has more seconds. Then just subtract the hours, minutes, and seconds of the second time from the first time to get the result. Example In this example, you will see the time difference of ...

Updated on 02-Jun-2025 3K+ Views

Pure functions always return the same result for the same argument values. They only return the result and there are no extra side effects like argument modification, I/O stream, output generation etc. Following are the examples of pure vs impure functions: Pure Function: sin(), strlen(), sqrt(), max(), pow(), floor() etc. Impure Function: rand(), time(), etc. There are many pure functions in C language such as strlen(), strcmp(), strchr(), strrchr(), strstr(), toupper(), tolower(), abs(), sin(), cos(), sqrt(), exp(), log(), pow(), fabs(), etc. Here we are explaining a few pure functions with ...
