Coin Problem
You are given 9 gold coins that look identical. One is
counterfeit and weighs a bit greater than the others, but
the difference is very small that only a balance scale can
tell it from the real one. You have a balance scale that
costs 25 USD per weighing.
Give an algorithm that finds the counterfeit coin with as
little weighting as possible. Of primary importance is that
your algorithm is correct; of secondary importance is that
your algorithm truly uses the minimum number of weightings
possible.
HINT: THE BEST ALGORITHM USES ONLY 2 WEIGHINGS!!!

Answer / pawan jain
1. Divide the coins in 3 groups of 3 coins each
2. Put 2 groups in the weighing scale
3a. If both the groups weigh equal
1. Pick 2 coins from the 3rd group and put in weighing scale
2. If they weigh equal, the 3rd coin is counterfeit.
Else the coin which weigh more is counterfeit
3b. If they do not weigh equal, pick the group with more
weight and do steps 3a1 and 3a2.

Definition of priority queue was given. We have to implement the priority queue using array of pointers with the priorities given in the range 1..n. The array could be accessed using the variable top. The list corresponding to the array elements contains the items having the priority as the array index. Adding an item would require changing the value of top if it has higher priority than top. Extracting an item would require deleting the first element from the corresponding queue. The following class was given: class PriorityQueue { int *Data[100]; int top; public: void put(int item, int priority); // inserts the item with the given priority. int get(int priority); // extract the element with the given priority. int count(); // returns the total elements in the priority queue. int isEmpty(); // check whether the priority queue is empty or not. }; We had to implement all these class functions.
