5. Consider the following algorithm.

ALGORITHM Secret(A[0..n-1])

//Input: An array A[0..n-1] of n real numbers

minval A[0]; maxval ← A[0]

for i 1 to n - 1 do

if A[i] < minval

minval ← A[i]

if A[i]> maxval

maxval ← A[i]

return maxval - minval

Answer questions (a)-(e) of Problem 4 about this algorithm./n4. Consider the following algorithm.

ALGORITHM Mystery (n)

//Input: A nonnegative integer n

S 0

for i ← 1 to n do

S+S+i*i

return S

a. What does this algorithm compute?

b. What is its basic operation?

c. How many times is the basic operation executed?

d. What is the efficiency class of this algorithm?

e. Suggest an improvement, or a better algorithm altogether, and indicate its

efficiency class. If you cannot do it, try to prove that, in fact, it cannot be

done.
