a. the patient’s goal for treatment is identified
b. the intake reveals a family history of mental illness
c. sometimes the presenting problem or symptom is not the real problem
d. someone with hallucinations may not have them during the assessment
Algorithm Secret(A[0..n − 1]) //Input: An array A[0..n − 1] of n
real numbers
min val ← A[0]; maxval ← A[0]
for i ← 1 to n − 1 do
if A[i] <>
← A[i]
if A[i] > maxval maxval← A[i]
return maxval − minval
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
