what is the best algorithm to sort out unique words from a
list of more than 10 million words(1 crore+)?

we need the best technique in the terms of execution time.

Answer Posted / rob

They're looking for unique words, so just sorting isn't good enough. Quicksort can still have a worst case runtime of n^2, or 10 million squared operations. We should use mergesort to guarantee O(nlogn) runtime, and then have a for loop to go through the list comparing element[i] with element [i+1], omitting element[i] if it is equal to element [i+1], and otherwise storing it in a new array or printing it to the screen, an O(n) operation. Then the final runtime is O(nlogn + n), ignoring the constant time to insert elements into a new array.

Question 1: Implement a base class Appointment and derived classes Onetime, Daily, Weekly, and Monthly. An appointment has a description (for example, “see the dentist”) and a date and time. Write a virtual function occurs_on(int year, int month, int day) that checks whether the appointment occurs on that date. For example, for a monthly appointment, you must check whether the day of the month matches. Then fill a vector of Appointment* with a mixture of appointments. Have the user enter a date and print out all appointments that happen on that date. *This Should Be Done IN C++
