Given with the function f(x) with the numbers a and b where, f(a) * f(b) > 0 and the function f(x) should lie between a and b i.e. f(x) = [a, b]. The task is to find the value of root that lies between interval a and b in function f(x) using bisection method.What is bisection method?Bisection method is used to find the value of a root in the function f(x) within the given limits defined by ‘a’ and ‘b’. The root of the function can be defined as the value a such that f(a) = 0.ExampleQuadratic equation F(x) = ... Read More

We are given with the n number of processes i.e. P1, P2, P3, ......., Pn with their corresponding burst times and priorities associated with each process . The task is to find the average waiting time ,average turnaround time and the sequence of process execution using priority CPU scheduling algorithm.What is Waiting Time and Turnaround Time?Turnaround Time is the time interval between the submission of a process and its completion.Turnaround Time = completion of a process – submission of a processWaiting Time is the difference between turnaround time and burst timeWaiting Time = turnaround time – burst timeWhat is Priority ...

Given two arrays containing block size and process size; the task is to print the results according to Best Fit algorithm in memory management.What is Best Fit Algorithm?Best Fit is a memory management algorithm; it deals with allocating smallest free partition which meets the requirement of the requesting process. In this algorithm we look for the whole memory block and check the smallest and most appropriate block for the process and then look for the immediate near block which can be used to fulfill the adequate process.So we will take the block size and process size and return the output ...

Given page number and page size; the task is to find number of hits and misses as when we allocate the memory block to a page using Optimal Page Replacement Algorithm.What is Optimal Page Replacement Algorithm?Optimal page replacement algorithm is a page replacement algorithm. A page replacement algorithm is an algorithm which decides which memory page is to be replaced. In Optimal page replacement we replace the page which is not referred to the near future, although it can’t be practically implemented, but this is most optimal and have minimal miss, and is most optimal.Let’s understand by using an example ...

Given a string containing the polynomial term, the task is to evaluate the derivative of that polynomial.What is a Polynomial?Polynomial comes from two words: - “Poly” which means “many” and “nomial” means “terms”, which comprises many terms. Polynomial expression is an expression containing variables, coefficients and exponents, which only involves operations such as, addition, multiplication and subtraction of variable(s).Example of polynomialx2+x+1Derivative of the polynomial p(x) = mx^n  will be −m * n * x^(n-1)ExampleInput: str = "2x^3 +1x^1 + 3x^2"    val = 2 Output: 37 Explanation: 6x^2 + 1x^0 + 6x^1    Putting x = 2    6*4 + ...

The Boolean values like True & false and 1&0 can be used as indexes in panda dataframe. They can help us filter out the required records. In the below exampels we will see different methods that can be used to carry out the Boolean indexing operations.Creating Boolean IndexLet’s consider a data frame desciribing the data from a game. The various points scored on different days are mentioned in a dictionary. Then we can create an index on the dataframe using True and False as the indexing values. Then we can print the final dataframe.Example Live Demoimport pandas as pd # dictionary ... Read More

html5lib is a pure-python library for parsing HTML. It is designed to conform to the WHATWG HTML specification, as is implemented by all major web browsers. It can parse almost all the elements of an HTML doc, breaking it down into different tags and pieces which can be filtered out for various use cases. It parses the text the same way as done by the major browsers. It can also tackle broken HTML tags and add some necessary tags to complete the structure. Also it is written in pure python code.lxml is also a similar parser but driven by XML ... Read More

Given two floating values; image distance and object distance from a lens; the task is to print the focal length of the lens.What is focal length?Focal length of an optical system is the distance between the center of lens or curved mirror and its focus.Let’s understand with the help of figure given below −In the above figure i is the object, and F is the image of the object which is formed and f is the focal length of the image.So to find the focal length of the image from the lens the formula is −1F= 1O+1IWhere, F is the ...

Variable assignment is a very basic requirement in any computer programming language. In python there are multiple ways we can declare a variable and assign value to it. Below we see each of them.Direct InitialisationIn this method, we directly declare the variable and assign a value using the = sign. If the variable is declare multiple times, then the last declaration’s value will be used by the program.Examplex = 5 x = 9 print(a)Running the above code gives us the following result:Output9Using if-elseWe can initialize value of a variable using some conditions. The evaluation of the result of the condition ... Read More

Given a number n; the task is to find the Mobius function of the number n.What is Mobius Function?A Mobius function is number theory function which is defined by$$\mu(n)\equiv\begin{cases}0\1\(-1)^{k}\end{cases}$$n=  0 If n has one or more than one repeated factorsn= 1 If n=1n= (-1)k  If n is product of k distinct prime numbersExampleInput: N = 17 Output: -1 Explanation: Prime factors: 17, k = 1, (-1)^k 🠠(-1)^1 = -1 Input: N = 6 Output: 1 Explanation: prime factors: 2 and 3, k = 2 (-1)^k 🠠(-1)^2 = 1 Input: N = 25 Output: 0 Explanation: Prime factor is ...
