Consider QuickSort on the array A[1:n] and assume that the pivot element x (used to split the array A[lo:hi] into two portions such that all elements in the left portion A[lo:m] are â¤x and all elements in the right portion A[m:hi] are â¥x) is the last element of the array to be split (i. e., A[hi]). Construct an infinite sequence of numbers for n and construct an assignment of the numbers 1...n to the n array elements that causes QuickSort, with the stated choice of pivot, to a. execute optimally (that is A[lo:m] and A[m:hi] are always of equal size)
b. execute in the slowest possible way.

Write a program called assignment3 (saved in a file assignment3.java) that computes the greatest common divisor of two given integers. one of the oldest numerical algorithms was described by the greek mathematician, euclid, in 300 b.c. it is a simple but very e↵ective algorithm that computes the greatest common divisor of two given integers. for instance, given integers 24 and 18, the greatest common divisor is 6, because 6 is the largest integer that divides evenly into both 24 and 18. we will denote the greatest common divisor of x and y as gcd(x, y). the algorithm is based on the clever idea that the gcd(x, y) = gcd(x ! y, y) if x > = y and gcd(x, y) = gcd(x, y ! x) if x < y. the algorithm consists of a series of steps (loop iterations) where the “larger” integer is replaced by the di↵erence of the larger and smaller integer. this continues until the two values are equal. that is then the gcd.

In this lab, you complete a prewritten c program that calculates an employee’s productivity bonus and prints the employee’s name and bonus. bonuses are calculated based on an employee’s productivity score as shown below. a productivity score is calculated by first dividing an employee’s transactions dollar value by the number of transactions and then dividing the result by the number of shifts worked.
