Faberroad, a respected courier brand, is fast losing its market share to competitors who do overnight deliveries of packages or offer lower prices. the company's research department has found that many customers care more about knowing exactly when a package will arrive than getting it the next day. which strategy would best address the current state of faberroad and it regain its market?

Some of your friends have gotten into the burgeoning field of time-series data mining, in which one looks for patterns in sequences of events that occur over time. purchases at stock exchanges"what's being bought" are one source of data with a natural ordering in time. given a long sequence s of such events, your friends want an efficient way to detect certain "patterns" in them"for example, they may want to know if the four events buy yahoo, buy ebay, buy yahoo, buy oracle occur in this sequence s, in order but not necessarily consecutively. they begin with a collection of possible events (e. g., the possible transactions) and a sequence s of n of these events. a given event may occur multiple times in s (e. g., yahoo stock may be bought many times in a single sequence s). we will say that a sequence s is a subsequence of s if there is a way to delete certain of the events from s so that the remaining events, in order, are equal to the sequence s . so, for example, the sequence of four events above is a subsequence of the sequence buy amazon, buy yahoo, buy ebay, buy yahoo, buy yahoo, buy oracle their goal is to be able to dream up short sequences and quickly detect whether they are subsequences of s. so this is the problem they pose to you: give an algorithm that takes two sequences of events"s of length m and s of length n, each possibly containing an event more than once"and decides in time o(m + n) whether s is a subsequence of s.

Program using c++ only on visual studio pig is a simple two player dice game, played with one die. the first player to reach or surpass 50 is the winner. each player takes a turn rolling the dice. they add to the pot with each roll, having to decide to roll again and increase the pot, or cash out. the risk being they could lose the amount they’ve accumulated into the pot. the rules for each player’s die roll. 1. roll the dice. a. if user rolled a 1, i. the pot gets set to zero ii. the other player goes to step 1. b. a roll of 2-6 is added to the pot. 2. user can choose to hold or roll again. a. choice roll. return to step 1. b. choice hold. i. increment player score by the pot amount. ii. pot gets set to 0. iii. second player gets to roll and goes to step 1. program requirements: ● before each opponent begins ○ output the score for the person and the computer. ○ output the opponents whose turn is beginning and ask the user to hit enter to continue. ● with each dice roll. ○ output the die value, and amount of the round pot. ○ if it’s the users roll ask if they want to roll again ( r ) or hold ( h ). your program should allow r, r, h or h as valid input. if input is anything else, ask the user again until valid input is obtained. ○ the ai will continue playing until the round pot is 20 or more. ● once a player’s score is greater or equal to 50 then they have won, it will no longer ask if they want to keep rolling the die or not. ● once there is a winner ○ score totals are output along with who the winner was. user or computer ○ player is asked if they want to play again y or n. valid input should be y, y, or n, n. ● when a new game starts the starting roll goes to the player that did not roll last. if the user rolled last in the previous game, then the computer rolls first and vice versa. when the program first begins, the player will make the first roll of the first game. development notes : ● you will need a way to roll dice in your program. the rand() function works well, but returns an integer. if we want numbers 0 – 9 we can get the value modulus 10. ● call srand() with a value to seed it. it’s common to seed it with the current computer clock, include ctime, and then call srand(time(
