Unless a question says otherwise, time estimates refer to asymptotic bounds (O( ), ( ), ( )). Always give the simplest bounds possible (O(f (x)) is simpler than O(f (x) + g(x)) and O(Kf(x))).
1. [3 points] A suffix tree for a string S is a trie that contains all suffixes of S. For example, if S is banana2, its suffix tree is a trie contains the seven strings banana2, anana2, nana2, . . . , 2 (where 2 is a unique terminating character).
a. [2 points] Draw the suffix tree for banana2.

In the following, long chains of states with a single child are condensed into an edge
showing all the letters along the way.
BANANA2 BANANA2
NA2 ANANA2
b. [1 point] Given a string P and a suffix tree for a string S, describe succinctly how to determine whether P is a substring of S (i.e., not necessarily a suffix) in time proportional only to the length of P.
Simply traverse the tree from the root, following edges labeled by the characters in se- quence (as for ordinary search of tries). If one never encounters a non-existent edge, then the substring must be in the trie.

2. [3 points] In a directed graph with N nodes, let the edges be represented by an N N array E, so that E[i][j] is the weight (or length) of the edge from node i to node j (assume nodes are identified by numbers 0..N 1). E[i][i] = 0 for all i. If there is no edge from i to j, then E[i][j]= .
a. [1point]Thefollowingalgorithm(knownastheFloyd-Warshallalgorithm)computesd[i][j], the length of the shortest path from node i to node j, for all pairs i and j:
Initialize d to the contents of E; for (int k = 0; k < N; k += 1)for (int i = 0; i < N; i += 1) for (int j = 0; j < N; j += 1)d[i][j] = Math.min (d[i][j], d[i][k] + d[k][j]);Assuming that Math.min (the minimum function) takes constant time, what is the best- case time cost of this algorithm, as a function of N, the number of vertices? What is the worst-case time cost?This is three nested loops, each executing N iterations once started, independent of the data. Thus, we get (N3) time.b. [2 points] Under the same assumptions as part (a), what are the best and worst case costs of computing d[i][j] for all i and j using Dijkstras algorithm, assuming that the graph is connected? Give your reasoning. Under what circumstances, if any, is it better to use Dijkstras algorithm for this purpose than the Floyd-Warshall algorithm?Dijkstras algorithm takes time ((N + E)lgN), where E is the number of edges to compute all d[i][j] for a single i. Thus, we get (N(N +E)lgN) for all d[i][j]. E can vary from N 1 up to (N2), so the time is (N2 lgN) and O(N3 lgN). So when edges are sparse (or you only care about one node), Dijkstras algorithm can be better.Copyright (c) 2008 by P. N. Hilfinger.

Illustrate the 2-4 tree with these keys having the smallest possible height.Root contains (4, 8, 12). Four children are (1, 2, 3), (5, 6, 7), (8, 9, 10), (13, 14, 15).b. Illustrate a 2-4 tree containing keys 115 and having the largest possible height.All nodes have one key.

[4 points] Consider the problem of sorting N distinct strings each of length K = 4 lg N usinga radix sort, assuming that the strings contain only the characters A and B.a. Using LSD radix sort, how long will this take; that is, what are the best- and worst-case times? Give your reasoning. Assume that (as in Java), moving a string is a constant-time operation (that is, it involves copying a pointer rather than the characters themselves).We sort by one character in linear time K times, giving (NK) = (NlgN) time regardless of the data.b. Suppose instead we sort the strings in part (a) using MSD radix sort. Now what are the best and worst-case times? Give your reasoning.We do linear-time sorts of subsequences of the whole sequence. If the sequences differ in their initial characters (best case), then after we have sorted the first lg N characters, all sublists will be 1 string long and well be done (time (N lg N )). This only a constant- factor difference from the LSD case, of course, but we have examined fewer characters. If the characters differ at the end (worst case), we do the same amount of work as in the LSD case, because the sorts by the initial characters keep giving us a single sublist.Copyright (c) 2008 by P.

[8 points] In discussing random numbers, I remarked that the following is not a good general solution to the problem of randomly selecting K different numbers in the range 0..N 1 when N is much larger than K:/** Fill B with a random selection of A.length different integers inthe range 0 .. N-1, where N >= B.length, using R as a random source. */
void choose1 (int[] B, int N, java.util.Random R) { int K = B.length;
int[] A = new int[N];
for (int i = 0; i < N; i += 1)for (int k = 0; k < K; k += 1) {swap A[N-1-k] with A[R.nextInt (N-k)];B[k] = A[N-1-k];(.nextInt(p) selects a pseudo-random number in the range 0 to p 1.) This algorithm fills an array with 0..N, and then swaps the last item with a random item in the array, the second to last with a random item in the first N 1 items, and so forth for a total of K items.a. [1 point] Give a time bound on choose1 as a function of N, K, or both, assuming that .nextInt requires constant time.Creating and filling the array: (N). Doing K swaps: (K). Since K < N, this is (N) total.b. [6 points] With a better choice of data structure in place of array A, this algorithm is not so bad. Specifically, Id like to write it as:void choose2 (int[] B, int N, java.util.Random R) {int K = B.length;Ints A = new Ints (N); /* A is initialized to 0, 1, …, N-1 */ for (int k = 0; k < K; k += 1) {A.swap (N-1-k, R.nextInt (N-k));B[k] = A.get (N-1-k); }implemented in such a way that it uses only O(K) space.Fill in the class definition on the next page to give the desired effect.

c. [1 point] Give a time bound on choose2 with your implementation of Ints, as a function of N, K, or both, and show your reasoning. State any assumptions you make about the speed of methods in the Java library.
Assuming we get essentially constant-amortized-time performance from HashMaps, the time required to execute choose2 is O(K).
