Suppose that an algorithm uses only comparisons to find the i th smallest element in a set of n elements. Show that it can also find the i 1 smaller elements and the n i larger elements without performing any additional comparisons

If the given algorithm employs m comparisons to determine 'x' that is the ith smallest element in a given sample of n elements. By tracing the m comparisons in the given log, the i -1 smaller elements can be determined by the theory of transitivity. Furthermore, If x > a and a > b, then x > b can be estimated without actually conducting a comparison between x and b. Similarly, the n - i larger elements can be found, too. It is uncertain that there is a possibility of x greater than a certain number or not by the comparison in the given log. It is not possible. Otherwise, the algorithm does not work correctly.

Explanation:

By tracing the m comparisons in the given log, the i -1 smaller elements can be determined by the theory of transitivity. It is uncertain that there is a possibility of x greater than a certain number or not by the comparison in the given log.

the printer can be used in a both wired and wireless network, only one of the connection methods can be used at one time when the wireless setting is enabled, the wired (ethernet) setting is disabled.

but first you need to

`connect the cord to your computer

`open settings app from the start menu

`click devices

`than click add printer or scanner

and than you should be able to do it from there, if not let me know i can you! : )
