Consider the following brute - force algorithm for finding
the distance between the two closest elements in an array
of numbers. Algorithm Min Distance (A[0..n -
1])//Input:Array A[0..n - 1] of numbers//Output:Minimum
distance between two of its elements d min leftarrow
infinity for i leftarrow 0 to n - 1 do for j leftarrow 0 to n - 1
do if i notequalto j and |A[i] - A[j]|
Solution
a)
Adding quick sort algorithm to this brute force algorithm to
increase performance...
// Partition function..
partition(left, right, pivotEle){
// variables tp hold both extremem ends
leftPtr left-1;
rightPtr = right;
while(true)
while(A[++leftPtr] < pivot){
// nothing doing
}
while(rightPtr > 0 && A[-rightPtr] > pivotEle){
