Bineary search, how to use it

Binary Search
P4.1 Write a program that implements a "guess the letter" game.
That is, generate a random char between 'A' and 'Z'. Then give the user
up to ten guesses. After each guess, display a "Too Low", "Too High" or "Got it!" message in response. You can use the couse web site
example code that guesses numbers and modify it if you like.
Please help me if possible

I could only provide you with analogy . I post a pseudocode but I lost it.
Get a toilet paper unroll at least 15-20 pages.
Mark one page(any page from 1 to 20) as your page to be search.
then continously fold the whole strip by two,taking out the strip with no mark after each fold.

  • JDEV 10.1.3 Searching how to use query named in client

    I find all necessary information about creating a named query but i didn't find anything about using it in my application code.
    Does somebody know how to call a named query.

    Michel,
    Named queries is documented at: http://download-east.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/toplink/1013/MAIN/_html/qryun008.htm#CACFBJCI
    To execute a named query you want to use:
    session.executeQuery("query-name", MyClass.class, args);http://download-west.oracle.com/otn_hosted_doc/toplink/1013/MAIN/b13698/oracle/toplink/sessions/Session.html#executeQuery_java_lang_String__java_lang_Class__java_util_Vector_
    There are several versions of this method depending on the arguments you wish to pass. For named queries defined on a descriptor you want to use the methods that take a reference class as well as the query name.

  • How to set up Google search in Firefox to closest resemble how I use it in Chrome?

    1st) I go to https://www.google.com/ncr [No Country Redirect, see: https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/873?hl=en]
    2nd) My setup how I search on Google in Chrome by default is the following:
    https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&hl=
    If I want to search on No Country Redirect land, I simple press Ctrl+E [which brings me to default search] and enter my [search term], which will result in: https://www.google.com/search?q=search+term&hl=
    Now if I want to search in a specific language (which I often need) other than English, some easy modifications:
    For example, German: https://www.google.com/search?q=search+term&hl=DE
    For example, French: https://www.google.com/search?q=search+term&hl=FR
    That's it.
    I don't understand what are these lots of [aqswdefrgthyjukiolkijuhygtfrdesasd] long strings in the default Firefox version of Google are, and why I should trust them? You might get a kickback for that from Google but sorry, that's not my business. :(
    [Philosophical question: why are simple things in Firefox so much more complicated than in Chrome?]

    Firefox doesn't have a handy built-in interface for editing search strings. Instead, it uses search plugins, small .xml files based on the OpenSearch standard. You can find these files on the Add-ons site, on the Mycroft site (example: [http://mycroftproject.com/google-search-plugins.html]), and elsewhere. Many sites offer them, in which case a green + appears on the icon in the search bar.
    You also can create your own custom search plugins. If you open the standard google.xml plugin in Firefox or IE as a page*, you can see the categories of data it contains. Most of it is encoded icons (using encoded icons means Firefox doesn't have to link out to a site to fetch the icon, potentially introducing a tracking issue). Toward the end you see how the query is constructed.
    For example, if you search for Firefox using the standard Google plugin, the results page is:
    https://www.google.com/search?q=Firefox&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8
    You can see from the plugin how this is constructed (toward the bottom):
    <Url type="text/html" method="GET" template="https://www.google.com/search" rel="searchform">
    <Param name="q" value="{searchTerms}"/>
    <Param name="ie" value="utf-8"/>
    <Param name="oe" value="utf-8"/>
    </Url>
    And if you wanted to change that, you could copy and edit the file to your preferred parameters. Interested?

  • How to use synonyms on multiple word search ?

    We use context with multiword search like this one :
    select * from my_table where contains(my_text,'the small building near the river')>0
    Now we have specific synonyms in a thesaurus. How do we write the contains clause ?
    contains(my_text,'syn(the,thes) and syn(small,thes) and syn(building,thes) and syn(near,thes) and syn (river,thes)')>0 does not fin the synonym for "small building"="house" for instance
    contains(my_text,'syn(the small building near the river,thes)')>0 does only for synonyms on the full sentence.
    More generally is there an Oracle Document which describes how to use SYN, FUZZY and combine them, since
    the reference documentation gives only limited information on this ?
    Have a nice day

    The thesaurus functionality is not currently built for stuff like this.
    if you want to combine fuzzy and thesaurus, I am assuming you want to do fuzzy first, to correct any misspelling,
    then thesaurus on the "corrected" spellings? You'd have to do something like:
    1. take the query and run ctx_query.explain to break it down and do the fuzzy expansion
    2. work through the fuzzy expansion and build a new query string by sticking SYN() around each
    expanded word
    As for thesaurus expansion and phrase, these are not compatible. Thesaurus expansions use "," and "|", and so
    you cannot have a phrase of thesaurus expansions.
    I see what you're getting at, but you would need sub phrase detection, phrase equivalence, etc., which is
    currently beyond the thesaurus function capability.
    You can use themes (ABOUT) on phrases, and it will do something like what you are describing. You might want
    to check that out.

  • How to use a standard library binary search if I'm not searching for a key?

    Hi all,
    I'm looking for the tidiest way to code something with maximum use of the standard libraries. I have a sorted set of ints that represent quality levels (let's call the set qualSet ). I want to find the maximum quality level (choosing only from those within qualSet ) for a limited budget. I have a method isAffordable(int) that returns boolean. So one way to find the highest affordable quality is to start at the lowest quality level, iterate through qualSet (it is sorted), and wait until the first time that isAffordable returns false. eg.
    int i=-1;
    for (int qual : qualSet) {
         if !(isAffordable(qual))
              return i;
         i++;
    }However isAffordable is a slightly complicated fn, so I'd like to use a binary search to make the process more efficient. I don't want to write the code for a binary search as that is something that should be reused, ideally from the standard libraries. So my question is what's the best way of reusing standard library code in this situation so as to not write my own binary search?
    I have a solution, but I don't find it very elegant. Here are the important classes and objects.
    //simple wrapper for an int representing quality level
    class QualityElement implements Comparable<QualityElement>
    //element to use to search for highest quality
    class HiQualFinderEl extends QualityElement {
         HiQualFinderEl(ComponentList cl) {...}
    //class that contains fair amount of data and isAffordable method
    class ComponentList {
         boolean isAffordable(int qual) {...}
    //sorted set of QualityElements
    TreeSet<QualityElement> qualSet When you create an instance of HiQualFinderEl, you pass it a reference to a ComponentList (because it has the isAffordable() method). The HiQualFinderEl.compareTo() function returns 1 or -1 depending on whether the QualityElement being compared to is affordable or not. This approach means that the binary search returns an appropriate insertion point within the list (it will never act as if it found the key).
    I don't like this because semantically the HiQualFinderEl is not really an element of the list, it's certainly not a QualityElement (but it inherits from it), and it just feels ugly! Any clever suggestions? Btw, I'm new to Java, old to C++.
    If this is unclear pls ask,
    Andy

    I would just copy the code from Collections.binarySearch and modify itI have this thing about reusing; just can't bring myself to do that :)
    It would be quicker and more efficient than trying to shoe horn a solution which expects a trinary result.Not sure I understand the last bit. Are you referring to my bastardised compareTo method with only two results? If so, I know, it is ugly! I don't see how it could be less efficient though???

  • How to use search on Flash 8

    I am using Flash Pro 8. I created a .fla file which contains
    several objects, each of them has the ActionScript. Now I want to
    search through all the ActionScript for a variable such as named
    GeneratedXML (already used somewhere in the application).
    So I go to Edit --> Find and Replace or Find Next. Neither
    can locate the "GeneratedXML". But I know there is indeed a
    variable named: GeneratedXML, because I can see it right before me.
    I just want to test the search function of this tool(Flash
    8). I need do a lot of searching and location of a parameters,
    function names, etc throughout the .fla file.
    Then how to use or do a search for a text in (the

    Thanks

    If you just click the magnifying glass in an actionscript

    You might try the Movie Explorer panel (Windows > Movie

    personally, I haven't had lots of luck with it attempting to
    do what you're

  • How to use search term2 in customer master record

    how to use search term2 in customer master record. can anyone tell me plz
    thanks
    monica

    Hi,
    Search Term 2
    Label used for search helps.
    Only uppercase letters are stored in this field. Your entries are converted automatically to uppercase letters.
    There are two of these fields for search terms. These fields can be used independently of each other.
    Procedure
    You can use your own criteria for entering the search term.
    Example
    You can enter the main part of the name or an organizational ID.
    For example, for the company "Hechinger & Sons", you could enter "Hechinger" as the first search term.
    The second search term could then be the name ID you use within your company, to help you identify your data later.

    how to use search help in layout of se51.

    Hi,
      One of the important features of screens is that they can provide users with lists of possible entries for a field. There are three techniques that you can use to create and display input help:
    Definition in the ABAP Dictionary
    In the ABAP Dictionary, you can link search helps to fields. When you create screen fields with reference to ABAP Dictionary fields, the corresponding search helps are then automatically available. If a field has no search help, the ABAP Dictionary still offers the contents of a check table, the fixed values of the underlying domain, or static calendar or clock help.
    Definition on a screen
    You can use the input checks of the screen flow logic, or link search helps from the ABAP Dictionary to individual screen fields.
    Definition in dialog modules
    You can call ABAP dialog modules in the POV event of the screen flow logic and program your own input help.
    These three techniques are listed in order of ascending priority. If you use more than one technique at the same time, the POV module calls override any definition on the screen, which, in turn, overrides the link from the ABAP Dictionary.
    However, the order of preference for these techniques should be the order listed above. You should, wherever possible, use a search help from the ABAP Dictionary, and only use dialog modules when there is really no alternative. In particular, you should consider using a search help exit to enhance a search help before writing your own dialog modules.
