C++ Program for Coefficient of variation
We are given with an array of float values of size n and the task is to find the coefficient of variation and display the result.What is the coefficient of variation?In statistic measure, coefficient of variation is used to find the range of variability through the data given. In terms of finance, coefficient of variation is used to find the amount of risk involved with respect to the amount invested. If the ratio between standard deviation and mean is low then the risk involved in the investment is also low. Coefficient of variation is the ratio between standard deviation and ...
Read MoreMaximizing the elements with a[i+1] > a[i] in C++
Problem statementGiven an array of N integers, rearrange the array elements such that the next array element is greater than the previous element arr[i+1] > arr[i]ExampleIf input array is {300, 400, 400, 300} then rearranged array will be −{300, 400, 300, 400}. In this solution we get 2 indices with condition arr[i+1] > arr[i]. Hence answer is 2.AlgorithmIf all elements are distinct, then answer is simply n-1 where n is the number of elements in the arrayIf there are repeating elements, then answer is n – maxFrequencyExampleLet us now see an example −#include #define MAX 1000 using namespace std; ...

Given process, the burst time of a process respectively and a quantum limit; the task is to find and print the waiting time, turnaround time and their respective average time using Shortest Job First Scheduling non-preemptive method.What is the shortest job first scheduling?Shortest job first scheduling is the job or process scheduling algorithm that follows the nonpreemptive scheduling discipline. In this, scheduler selects the process from the waiting queue with the least completion time and allocate the CPU to that job or process. Shortest Job First is more desirable than FIFO algorithm because SJF is more optimal as it reduces ...
Read MoreMaximizing Unique Pairs from two arrays in C++
Problem statementGiven two arrays of equal size N, form maximum number of pairs by using their elements, one from the first array and second from the second array, such that an element from each array is used at-most once and the absolute difference between the selected elements used for forming a pair is less than or equal to a given element K.ExampleIf input is −arr1[] = {3, 4, 5, 2, 1}arr2[] = {6, 5, 4, 7, 15}and k = 3 then we can form following 4 pairs whose absolute difference is less than or equal to 3 −(1, 4), (2, ...
Read MoreMinimum steps to delete a string after repeated deletion of palindrome substrings in C++
Problem statementGiven a string containing characters as integers only. We need to delete all character of this string in a minimum number of steps where in one step we can delete the substring which is a palindrome. After deleting a substring remaining parts are concatenated.ExampleIf input string is 3441213 then minimum 2 steps requiredFirst remove 121 from string. Now remaining string is 3443Remove remaining string as it’s palindromeAlgorithmWe can use dynamic programming to solve this problem1. Let dp[i][j] denotes the number of steps it takes to delete the substring s[i, j] 2. Each character will be deleted alone or as ...
Read MoreMaximum element in min heap in C++
Problem statementGiven a minimum heap find maximum element in that.ExampleIf input heap is −Then maximum element is 55AlgorithmIn minimum heap parent node will be lesser than its children. Hence we can conclude that a non-leaf node cannot be the maximum.Search maximum element in the leaf nodesExampleLet us now see an example −#include using namespace std; int getMaxElement(int *heap, int n) { int maxVal = heap[n / 2]; for (int i = n / 2 + 1; i < n; ++i) { maxVal = max(maxVal, heap[i]); } return maxVal; } int main() { int heap[] = {15, 27, 22, 35, 29, 55, 48}; int n = sizeof(heap) / sizeof(heap[0]); cout
Read MoreMaximum 0's between two immediate 1's in binary representation in C++
Problem statementGiven a number n, the task is to find the maximum 0’s between two immediate 1’s in binary representation of given n. Return -1 if binary representation contains less than two 1’sExampleIf input number is 35 then its binary representation is −00100011In above binary representation there are 3 0’s between two immediate 1’s. Hence answer is 3.AlgorithmWe can use bitwise shift operator to solve this problem. We need to find the position of two immediate 1’s in binary representation of n and maximize the difference of these position.If number is 0 or power of 2 then return -1IInitialize variable ...
Read MoreMinimum steps to make all the elements of the array divisible by 4 in C++
Problem statementGiven an array of size n, the task iss to find the minimum number of steps required to make all the elements of the array divisible by 4. A step is defined as removal of any two elements from the array and adding the sum of these elements to the arrayExampleIf input array is {1, 2, 0, 2, 4, 3} then 3 operations are required −1 + 3 = 4 2 + 2 = 4 0 + 4 = 4Algorithm1. Sum of all the elements of the array should be divisible by If not, this task is not possible ...
Read MoreMaximum bitwise AND value of a pair in an array in C++
Problem statementGiven an array of n positive elements. we need to find the maximum bitwise AND value generated by any pair of element from the array.ExampleIf input array is {10, 12, 15, 18} then maximum value of bitwise AND is 12.AlgorithmThe result of bitwise AND operations on single bit is maximum when both bits are 1. Considering this property −Start from the MSB and check whether we have minimum of two elements of array having set valueIf yes, then that MSB will be part of our solution and be added to result otherwise we will discard that bitSimilarly, iterating from ...
Read MorePriority Queue using doubly linked list in C++
We are given with the data and the priority as an integer value and the task is to create a doubly linked list as per the priority given and display the result.Queue is a FIFO data structure in which the element which is inserted first is the first one to get removed. A Priority Queue is a type of queue in which elements can be inserted or deleted depending upon the priority. It can be implemented using queue, stack or linked list data structure. Priority queue is implemented by following these rules −Data or element with the highest priority will ...
