What is a captcha and why are captchas important?

Captcha means "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart". This is a test to see if the person typing the information is a person and not a robot. Thhis is when the computer asks you to copy a few letters in a weird font to make sure you are not a robot.

In the bubble sort demo, 13 cards are being sorted. How many passes does this version of the algorithm require to sort the cards?

13

Suppose you are sorting the following list of numbers in ascending order using bubble sort: [16, 5, -1, 4, 12, 17, 3, 10, 5, 9]. After the first pass through the numbers, what value would appear on the right of the list?

17 because 17 is the largest number so it would bubble to the top

For a list of 500 numbers, at most how many guesses would it take using binary search to guess the secret number if after each guess you were told whether your guess was too high or too low or just right? Type your answer into the text box.

9 because every time you would eliminate some options by saying too high or low, 2^9 is 512 which is greater than 500

Which sort algorithm is most efficient when the list is large? When the list is small?

Bucket sort is the more efficient algorithm in the sense that as the size of the list grows, the time it takes to sort the values will not increase as fast as for bubble sort. Bubble sort may actually be faster for very small list.

There are 32 students standing in a classroom. Two different algorithms are given for finding the average height of the students. Algorithm A Step 1: All students stand. Step 2: A randomly selected student writes his or her height on a card and is seated. Step 3: A randomly selected standing student adds his or her height to the value on the card, records the new value on the card, and is seated. The previous value on the card is erased. Step 4: Repeat step 3 until no students remain standing. Step 5: The sum on the card is divided by 32. The result is given to the teacher. Algorithm B Step 1: All students stand. Step 2: Each student is given a card. Each student writes his or her height on the card. Step 3: Standing students form random pairs at the same time. Each pair adds the numbers written on their cards and writes the result on one student's card; the other student is seated. The previous value on the card is erased. Step 4: Repeat step 3 until one student remains standing. Step 5: The sum on the last student's card is divided by 32. The result is given to the teacher. Which of the following statements is true? (A) Algorithm A always calculates the correct average, but Algorithm B does not. (B) Algorithm B always calculates the correct average, but Algorithm A does not.

Which sort algorithm is not a quadratic sort?

Merge Sort

What are the comparative sorts?

Merge and Bubble

When you type a word or phrase into the Google search engine, what is the search algorithm that is being used? Does Google's search engine search the web? Explain.

Google uses a search algorithm called a PageRank algorithm.This means that websites that are more popular are more likely to be shown when you search something.Google uses sofware programs called spiders. Spiders fetch a few web pages that lead to more web pages until you have lots of results. Google finds information throughout the Web.

URL

It is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web

Which search algorithm is the worst case scenario? Why?

Linear search algorithm because you have to look through all the cards to find the one you are looking for

Ordered collection

What is bubble sort?

Place the unsorted deck, face down, in the right hand pile. Repeat N times Put the top card of the right pile in your hand. Repeat until there are no more cards in the right pile. If the card in your hand > the top card on the right pile Place top card on the left pile. Else Place the hand card on the left pile. When the pass is finished, put the card left in your hand on the sorted pile. Move the left pile to the right pile.

Should a researcher place absolute trust in a search engine? Why or why not?

Researchers should not put complete faith in a search engine because you are giving complete control to the search engine so some information might not be shown if a search engine is being restricted. So if the search engine company like Google wants to restrict information then the citizens can't get all the information others might get.

What two sorts are quadratic?

Selection and Bubble Sort

A ____________ error occurs when a programmer inadvertently puts code that is syntactically correct, but does not do what the programmer intended it to do.

Syntax

What is the PageRank algorithm? How does it work?

The PageRank algorithm works by choosing sights that are more popular when someone does a search because the user is more likley to like these results.

Bug

an error or defect, that prevents the app from working the way it is supposed to.

What does it mean to "empty the cache"?

The cache is like and Internet folder where you keep your copies of web pages. If you empty you cache you get rid of all the copies so you are getting rid of all the information you have saved. This creates more disk space and clears your history.

Reasonable Time

The number of steps the algorithm takes is less than or equal to a polynomial function of the size of the input

What is an example of an index?

The pages at the back of a textbook because they are in alphabetical order

"The architecture of human knowledge has changed as a result of search." What does this claim mean?

This is saying that how people get their information has changed because with a search engine people are able to find a lot of information about a topic where as before the search engine people had to use books which did not give as much information as search engines do.

The efficiency of an algorithm is a measure of:
