Consider the search method (of some class) below which is intended to return the index of the position in array a where key is found. If key is not in the array a, -1 is returned. public int search (int key){
int low=0;
int hight=a. length-1;
while (low<=high){
int mid=(low+high)/2;
int diff=a[mid]-key;
if (diff==0) // a[mid]==key
return mid;
else if (diff<0) //a[mid] low=mid+1;
else
high=mid-1;
}
return -1;
}
private int [ ] a;
Suppose:
a={8, 10, 1, 5, 7, 9, 6, 2}
What value will search return? Why?
8
4
3
-1
No value will be returned. An is thrown.

The reset circuit used on the four 3-bit counters analyzed in this activity reset the counts to zero (000). it makes sense for the up-counters to start at zero (000), but the down-counters should start at seven (111). what would you need to change so that the 3-bit binary down counter with j/k flip-flops you just created would reset to seven (111)?

Write a program that begins by reading in a series of positive integers on a single line of input and then computes and prints the product of those integers. integers are accepted and multiplied until the user enters an integer less than 1. this final number is not part of the product. then, the program prints the product. if the first entered number is negative or 0, the program must print “bad input.” and terminate immediately. next, the program determines and prints the prime factorization of the product, listing the factors in increasing order. if a prime number is not a factor of the product, then it must not appear in the factorization. sample runs are given below. note that if the power of a prime is 1, then that 1 must appear in t

Which of the following statements tests if students have a grade of 70 or above, as well as fewer than five absences? a: if(grade > = 70 and daysabsent < = 5): b: if(grade > = 70 or daysabsent < = 5): c: if(grade > 70 and daysabsent < = 5): d: if(grade > 70 or daysabsent < = 5): i took the test the answer is a
