Which statement allows more than one condition in an If statement?

ANSWER: C) Elif

)a grad student comes up with the following algorithm to sort an array a[1..n] that works by first sorting the first 2/3rds of the array, then sorting the last 2/3rds of the (resulting) array, and finally sorting the first 2/3rds of the new array. 1: function g-sort(a, n) . takes as input an array of n numbers, a[1..n] 2: g-sort-recurse(a, 1, n) 3: end function 4: function g-sort-recurse(a, `, u) 5: if u ⒠` ≤ 0 then 6: return . 1 or fewer elements already sorted 7: else if u ⒠` = 1 then . 2 elements 8: if a[u] < a[`] then . swap values 9: temp ↠a[u] 10: a[u] ↠a[`] 11: a[`] ↠temp 12: end if 13: else . 3 or more elements 14: size ↠u ⒠` + 1 15: twothirds ↠d(2 ◠size)/3e 16: g-sort-recurse(a, `, ` + twothirds ⒠1) 17: g-sort-recurse(a, u ⒠twothirds + 1, u) 18: g-sort-recurse(a, `, ` + twothirds ⒠1) 19: end if 20: end function first (5 pts), prove that the algorithm correctly sorts the numbers in the array (in increasing order). after showing that it correctly sorts 1 and 2 element intervals, you may make the (incorrect) assumption that the number of elements being passed to g-sort-recurse is always a multiple of 3 to simplify the notation (and drop the floors/ceilings).

Selective incapacitation is a strategy to reduce prison population

Suppose s, t, and w are strings that have already been created inside main. write a statement or statements, to be added to main, that will determine if the lengths of the three strings are in order by length, smallest to largest. that is, your code should determine if s is strictly shorter than t, and if t is strictly shorter than w. if these conditions hold your code should print (the boolean value) true. if not, your code should print false. (strictly means: no ties) example: if s, t, and w are "cat", "hats", and "skies" your code should print true - their lengths are 3-4-5; but if s, t, and w are "cats" "shirt", and "trust", then print false - their lengths are 4-5-5 enter your code in the box below
