how to find out the union of two character arrays?..

Answer / prakashdasari

char *str1,*str2,*res;
while(*str1!=NULL)
str++;
while(*str2!=NULL)
{
*str1 == *str2;
str1++;
str2++;
}
*str1 = '\0';
//so total string is in one string ie str1 itself;
//now i will remove duplicates from entire string
for(i=0;str[i]!=NULL;i++)
{
for(j=0;str[j]!=NULL;j++)
{
if(str[i]==str[j])
{
flag = 1;break;
}
else flag = 0;
}
if(flag == 0)
{
*res = str[i];
res++;
}
*res = '\0';
}
now resultant string (res) is union of two character
arrays....

how to find out the union of two character arrays?..

Answer / om

Input: str1 (size M), str2 (size N)
Output:- Union_string str3.

1. Take a auxillary interger array of size 128 and
initialize all its's enteries to zero.(becoz All printable
chacter has value in the range [0,127]. so 128)
int Aux[128]={0}; //O(128) TIME

2. set Couter = strlen(str1) + strlen(str2) +1 ;//extra one
for '\0' character..

3. now scan the first string str1 and put 1 on the index
value equal to str1[i] in auxillary array.If there were
already 1,then Counter--;
Aux[str1[i]]=1; //O(M) TIME

4. now scan the second string str2 and put 1 on the index
value equal to str2[i] in auxillary array.Similar to step 3.
If there were already 1,then Counter--;
Aux[str2[i]=1; //O(N) TIME

5. Now alloacte a memory of size equal to "Counter" for our
resulting union string str3.
char *str3=(char*)malloc(Counter);

6. now again scan the str1 followed by str2. and if any 1 is
found in Aux[str1[i]] or Aux[str2[i]] make it 0. and put
that character to union string str3.

int k=0;
for(int i=0; str1[i]!='\0' ;i++) //O(M)
if(Aux[str1[i]] ==1)
{
str3[k++]=str1[i];
Aux[str1[i]] =0;
}

for(int i=0; str2[i]!='\0' ;i++) //0(N)
if(Aux[str2[i]] ==1)
{
str3[k++]=str2[i];
Aux[str2[i]] =0;
}
str3[k]=\0';


and return str3.


// SO TOTAL O(MAX(M,N)) TIME COMPLEXITY ALGORITHM USING
CONSTANT SPACE OF SIZE 128.

At a shop of marbles, packs of marbles are prepared. Packets are named A, B, C, D, E …….. All packets are kept in a VERTICAL SHELF in random order. Any numbers of packets with these names could be kept in that shelf as in this example: bottom of shelf ---> [AAAJKRDFDEWAAYFYYKK]-----Top of shelf. All these packets are to be loaded on cars. The cars are lined in order, so that the packet could be loaded on them. The cars are also named [A, B, C, D, E,………….]. Each Car will load the packet with the same alphabet. So, for example, car ‘A’ will load all the packets with name ‘A’. Each particular car will come at the loading point only once. The cars will come at the loading point in alphabetical order. So, car ‘B’ will come and take all the packets with name ‘B’ from the shelf, then car ‘C’ will come. No matter how deep in the shelf any packet ‘B’ is, all of the ‘B’ packets will be displaced before the ‘C’ car arrives. For that purpose, some additional shelves are provided. The packets which are after the packet B, are kept in those shelves. Any one of these shelves contains only packets, having the same name. For example, if any particular shelf is used and if a packet with name X is in it, then only the packets having names X will be kept in it. That shelf will look like [XXXXXXX]. If any shelf is used once, then it could be used again only if it is vacant. Packets from the initial shelf could be unloaded from top only. Write a program that finds the minimum total number of shelves, including the initial one required for this loading process.
