ALGORITHMS - PART 4LIST PROCESSING

ListsSometimes a problem deals with a list of values We represent such a list with a single name, and

use subscripts to indicate the individual members of the list

For example, if X is a list of size N, then the individual members are:

X1 , X2 , X3 ,………., XN

Lists

Always include the size of the list as part of the information for the algorithm – remember storage? How much room must the

computer set aside for our list?

– there are techniques for working with lists of unknown length, but they are beyond the scope of this course.

– either you will know the length of the list or you will be able to calculate it

Algorithm 4.1

List Processing

Remember that we represent a list with a single name and use subscripts to indicate the individual members of the list

Processing a list usually involves a loop in which we use the list subscript variable as the loop control variable

Frequently, we also use Boolean operators in our loop tests– The next slide reviews use of these operators

List Processing

Assume that the Boolean variables X, Y and Z are set to the following values:X = True, Y = False, Z = True

The order of precedence for Boolean operators is Not, And, Or

What is the result of each of the following expressions:(X and Y) or Z = TRUE(True or Y) and False = FALSEX or True and not Y or Z = TRUEnot(X and not Z or False and (True and Y)) = TRUEY and Y or not Z = FALSE

Algorithm 4.4

Given a list X of N numbers, find the sum of the numbers in X

Analysis– Basic Algorithm

• SUM• Let Total = 0• Let Total = Total + ????

– Total = X1 + X2 + …….. + XN – Total = Total + XI

• Let I go from 1 to N in a loop; then we will add each X I

• Loop control variable is the list subscript variable

Grouped Lists

If we want to process multiple, related lists (as in a database), we must maintain the order relationship between elements in each list

E.g. Student grades– Name - Midterm - Final

– Ann - 100 - 30

– Bob - 75 - 28

– Cathy - 60 - 90

– Dave - 40 - 80

Grouped Lists

We have three lists– Name = (Ann, Bob, Cathy, Dave)

– Midterm = (100, 75, 60, 40)

– Final = (30, 28, 90, 80)

Since Ann is Name1, then her midterm mark would be Midterm1 and her final mark would be Final1

We can also create a new list from other lists.

Algorithm 4.9

Given two lists, Midterm and Final, of N numbers each, calculate a Final grade of 75% Final and 25% Midterm
