Program Plan Intro
Loop invariant:
A loop invariant is a condition that is automatically “true” instantly previous and instantly next each iteration of a loop.
- It states an approach for achieving a goal; it is exactly the “pre-condition” for implementing the loop’s body, and it is exactly the “post-condition” of what is outputted by executing the loop’s body.

Answer the following sentences true or false
1. Looping is basically a phase in which we repeat the very same process multiple times u less it specifies any specific type of condition.
2. An infinite loop(sometimes called an endless loop) is a piece of coding that lacks a functional exit so that it repeats indefinitely.
3. In while loop, a condition is evaluated before processing a body of the loop.
Draw flow diagram of while and for loop. Explain a scenarios in which for loop is best suited and a scenario in which while loop is best suited?
solve with Matlab
Assignment vs. Equals is important in loops. An assignment is a = b and means assign value
b to variable a. The equals operator is ab results in 1 or yes if they are equal, 0 or no if
they are not.
The final type of loop is a WHILE loop. It requires that a series of operations occur while the
condition applied to a specified variable is correct.
The example syntax is:
i=10;
while i>5
i-i-1
end
Practice Problem: Given the matrix: M-[1 1; 1 3;]; Use loops to determine how many
of the entries are greater than 1 and the location of all qualifying entries (the
corresponding row and column).

We showed that since there are 20 possible first moves for White and 20 possible first moves for Black in response, that there must be two different games in the tournament that begin with the same first two moves. For which of the following changes would this result still be true? Question 1 options: a) each player played 6 games instead of 7 b) each player played 8 games instead of 7 c) there were 200 players instead of 150 (and each played 7 games) d) there were 100 players instead of 150 (and each played 7 games)arrow_forwardSynchronization Problems: Select all of the following statements that are true. Regarding the bounded buffer version of the producer-consumer problem: If the buffer is full, the consumer must wait until new data is generated. Regarding the unbounded buffer version of the producer-consumer problem: the producer never has to wait and can produce new data elements without having to care for buffer sizes. With respect to the first readers-writers-problem discussed in class: If new reading processes are added again and again, a writing process could starve in the worst case. With respect to the solution to the second readers-writers-problem discussed in class: the queue semaphore provides a queuing of read and write processes. The naïve semaphore-based solution to the Dining-Philosophers problem discussed in class can lead to deadlocks.

You need to pay for the full fare of every bus you ride and different bus lines charge different fees , but they are flat fees (independent of distance travelled on the line) A travel plan is a sequence of stop-time pairs where stop is a location of a bus stop and time is when we arrive at that stop. The plan is feasible if for any two consecutive pairs (a, t) and (b, t′) in the plan there exists a bus that departs after t and arrives at b at exactly t′. That is, a travel plan does not allow us to walk between stops. Assuming that no two buses arrive at the same time at the same stop, a feasible plan uniquely identifies the bus lines that we need to take to realize the plan. The cost of the plan is the sum of the fares we need to pay. Your task is to design an efficient algorithm that given a departure time t, an arrival time t′, an origin stop a and a destination stop b, finds the…arrow_forwardarrow_back_iosSEE MORE QUESTIONSarrow_forward_ios
