Problem statementGiven 2 sorted singly linked list. Write a function to merge given two sorted linked listsList1: 10->15->17->20 List2: 5->9->13->19 Result: 5->9->10->13->15->17->19->20Algorithm1. Traverse both lists    1.1. If list1->data < list2->data       1.1.1 Add list1->data to new list and increment list1 pointer    1.2 If list2->data < list1->data       1.2.1 Add list2->data to new list and increment list2 pointer 2. Repeat procedure until both lists are exhausted 3. Return resultant listExample#include #include #define SIZE(arr) (sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0])) using namespace std; struct node {    int data;    struct node *next; }; node *createList(int *arr, ...

Problem statementGiven two arrays, we need to combine two arrays in such a way that the combined array has alternate elements of the first and second array. If one of the arrays has an extra element, then these elements should be appended at the end of the combined array.arr1[] = {10, 20, 30, 40} arr2[] = {-10, -20, -30, -40} result[] = {10, -10, 20, -20, 30, -30, 40, -40}Algorithm1. Traverse both arrays and one by one put elements into result array. 2. If one of the array exhausts then put remaining elements of other array into result array.Example#include ... Read More

Problem statementWrite a function that takes two unsorted arrays and merges them into a new array in sorted order.arr1[] = {10, 5, 7, 2} arr2[] = {4, 17, 9, 3} result[] = {2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 17}Algorithm1. Merge two unsorted array into new array 2. Sort newly create arrayExample#include #include #define SIZE(arr) (sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0])) using namespace std; void mergeAndSort(int *arr1, int n1, int *arr2, int n2, int *result){    merge(arr1, arr1 + n1, arr2, arr2 + n2, result);    sort(result, result + n1 + n2); } void displayArray(int *arr, int n){    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {       cout

Problem statementThe mid-square method is a method of generating pseudorandom numbers. This method was invented by John von Neumann and was described at a conference in 1949In this technique, an initial seed value is taken and it is squared.Some digits from the middle are extracted and these extracted digits form a number which is taken as the new seed.Let us take 3456 as seed. Its square is 11943936Take the middle 4 digits as new seed i.e. 9439. Its square is 89094721Take middle 4 digits as new seed i.e. 0947Repeat this processAlgorithm1. Choose initial seed value 2. Take the square of ... Read More

DescriptionIn mathematics, a Mersenne prime is a prime number that is one less than a power of two. That is, it is a prime number of the form Mn = 2n − 1 for some integer n.Write a C++ program to print all Mersenne Primes smaller than an input positive integer n.The exponents n which give Mersenne primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, ... and the resulting Mersenne primes are 3, 7, 31, 127Algorithm1. Generate all the primes less than or equal to the given number n 2. Iterate through all numbers of the form 2n-1 and check if they ... Read More

In Java, org.simple.json and org.json are two libraries that help in reading, writing, and manipulating JSON. But still, they are different. In this article, we are going to learn about these differences. Difference between JSON.simple vs JSON Let's see the below differences and they are - Features JSON.simple JSON ... Read More

The Java Arrays are objects which store multiple variables of the same type, it holds primitive types and object references and an ArrayList can represent a resizable list of objects. We can add, remove, find, sort and replace elements using the list. A JsonArray can parse text from a string to produce a vector-like object. We can convert an array or ArrayList to JsonArray using the toJsonTree().getAsJsonArray() method of Gson class.Syntaxpublic JsonElement toJsonTree(java.lang.Object src)Exampleimport com.google.gson.*; import java.util.*; public class JavaArrayToJsonArrayTest {    public static void main(String args[]) {       String[][] strArray = {{"elem1-1", "elem1-2"}, {"elem2-1", "elem2-2"}};       ArrayList arrayList = ...

While deserializing, a Gson can expect a JSON object but it can find a JSON array. Since it can't convert from one to the other, it can throw an error as "JsonSyntaxException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Expected BEGIN_OBJECT but was BEGIN_ARRAY" at the runtime.Exampleimport com.google.gson.Gson; public class GsonErrorTest {    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {       String json = "{\"employee\":[{\"name\":\"Raja Ramesh\", \"technology\":\"java\"}]}";       Gson gson = new Gson();       Software software = gson.fromJson(json, Software.class);       System.out.println(software);    } } class Software {    Employee employee; } class Employee {    String name; ...

Suppose we have a number N, our task is to find ln(N!) using recursion. ln() is basically log base e. To solve this we can use this formula −$$\ln\lgroup N!\rgroup=\ln\lgroup N*\lgroup N-1\rgroup *\lgroup N-2\rgroup *\dotsm*2*1\rgroup=\ln\lgroup N\rgroup+\ln\lgroup N+1\rgroup+\dotsm+\ln\lgroup 1\rgroup$$Example Live Demo#include #include using namespace std; double factLog(int n) {    if (n

Here we will see how to get the unit place digit of the sum of N factorials. So if N is 3, then after getting sum, we will get 1! + 2! + 3! = 9, this will be the result, for N = 4, it will be 1! + 2! + 3! + 4! = 33. so unit place is 3. If we see this clearly, then as the factorials of N > 5, the unit place is 0, so after 5, it will not contribute to change the unit place. For N = 4 and more, it will ... Read More
