Dijkstra s mini language S ::= x 1,, x n := E 1,, E n S; S skip abort if B 1 SL 1 B n SL n fi do B 1 SL 1 B n SL n od if x > y m := x if x y m := x if x y m := x x y m := y x < y m := y x y m := y fi fi fi 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 1

7 Greedy algorithm Optimization problem to find a solution to the given problem that either minimizes or maximizes the value of somr parameters (global) optimal to select the best choise considering all sequences of steps local optimal(greddy algorithm) to select the best choise at each step Algorithm 6 Greedy Change-Making Algorithm procedure change(n 1, n 2,, n r : number of coins where c 1 > c 2 > > c r is the value for each coin i ; n: positive integer) n 1, n 2,, n r := 0, 0,, 0; i := 1; do (i r) do (n c i ) n i := n i + 1; n := n - c i od; i:= i+1 od 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 7
8 The Halting Problem Unsolvable problems Halting problem where program will be halt or not(infinite loop) Alan Turing, 1936 No algorithm that computes it! Three cases i) (totally) solvable(computable; recursive) always terminate algorithms ii) partially solvable(partially computable;recursively enumerable) algorithm(program) exits but may halts or loops forever iii) unsolvable(uncomputable; Not recursively enumerable) No algorithm(program) exists 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 8
9 proof Assume a procedure H(P: program, I: input data) exists where If P runs with I and halts print halt as output. P with I loops forever print loops forever as output. Program also can be a input data(compiler) Condider procedure K(P) as follows procedure K(P: program) if H(P, P) prints halts loops forevar H(P, P) prints loops forever halts fi Now consider K(K) if H(K, K) print loops forever K(K) halts H(K, K) print halts K(K) loops forever Contradiction No algorithm for halting program! 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 9
10 3.2 The Groth of Functions Big-O Notation Definition 1 Let f: N R or R R. We say f(x) is O(g(x)), if c, k R.. f(x) c g(x) x > k. We also write f(x) = O(g(x)) or even f(x) O(g(x)). The constant c and k are called the witnesses of... f(x) is O(g(x)). Assume c and k are witnesses, c, k.. c < c, x < x, c and k are also witnesses g(x) is faster or equl(not slower) glowing than f(x) when x becomes large enough and ignoring multiplying some constant c. Example 1, 2, 3, 4 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 10
11 Theorem 1 Let f(x) = a n x n + a n-1 x n a 1 x + a 0. Then f(x) is O(x n ). proof easy with witness k=1 and c = Σ a i. Example 6 n! n! n n. n! is O(n n ) with witness k=1 and c=1. log n! log n n = n log n 1, log n, n, nlog n, n 2, 2 n, n! Definition Let g: N or R R. O(g) = {f: N or R R c, k > 0 x > k: f(x) c g(x) } we may write f O(g). O(1) O(log n) O(n) O(nlog n) O(n 2 ) O(n 3 ) O(2 n ) O(n!) 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 11
12 Theorem 2, 3 Let f 1 O(g 1 ), f 2 (x) O(g 2 ). Then f 1 +f 2 O(g 1 +g 2 ) = O(max( g 1, g 2 ) and f 1 f 2 O(g 1 g 2 ). Colollary 1 Let f 1, f 2 O(g). Then f 1 +f 2 O(g). Big-Omega and Big-Theta Notation Definition 2 Ω(g) = {f: N or R R c, k > 0 x > k: f(x) c g(x) } Definition 3 Θ(g) = {f: N R c 1, c 2, k > 0, x > k: c 1 g(x) f(x) c 2 g(x) } f Θ(g), iff f O(g) f Ω(g). We say f is order of g, if f Θ(g). Theorem 4 Let f(x) = a n x n + a n-1 x n a 1 x + a 0 with a n 0. Then f(x) Θ(x n ). 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 12

We say a is a factor of b and b is a multiple of a. a b denotes a divides b, and a / b to denote a does not divide b. Theorem 1 a, b, c Z. i) a b a c a (b+c). ii) a b a bc. iii) a b b c a c.

16 Theorem 2 The Division Algorithm a Z, d Z + 1 q, 1 r Z: 0 r < d.. a = dq + r. Definition 2 d is called the divisor, a is called dividened, q is called the quotient, and q is called the remainder. q = a div d, r = a mod d. Modular Arithmetic Definition 3 Let a, b Z, m Z +. Then a is congruent to b modulo m, written a b (mod m) or b [a] mod m, if m (a - b). Theorem 3 a b (mod m), iff a mod m = b mod m. or (a - b) mod m = 0. Theorem 4 a b (mod m), iff k Z: a = b + km. Theorem 5 If a b (mod m) c d (mod m), then a + c b + d (mod m) ac bd (mod m). 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 16
17 3.5 Primes and Greatest Common Divisors Definition 1 p Z + is prime, p > 1 a Z + : (1 < a < p a p). Otherwise composite. Theorem 1 The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic Every positive integer has a unique representation as the product of nondecreasing series of zero or more primes. Theorem 2 If n is composite integer, then n has a prime divisor less than or equal to SQRT(n). Theorem 3 There are infinitely many primes. proof proof by contradiction Assume there are only finitelt many primes, p 1, p 2, p n. Let Q = p 1 p 2 p n /28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 17

There are infinitely many primes.

Definition 5 Let a, b Z and not both zero. d = lcm(a, b) = min(m: a m b m), a m b m n Z, (n a n b) m n. 3/28/07 Kwang-Moo Choe 19
