Explain what it means for a function to be Ω(1).
Short Answer
Ω(1) means │f(x)│≥M, whenever x>k and the function is bounded below from constant M.

Get started for freeDescribe an algorithm that locates the last occurrence of the smallest element in a finite list of integers, where the integers in the list are not necessarily distinct.
Devise an algorithm that finds the first term of a sequence of positive integers that is less than the immediately preceding term of the sequence.
a) Adapt Algorithm 1 in Section 3.1 to find the maximum and the minimum of a sequence of elements by employing a temporary maximum and a temporary minimum that is updated as each successive element is examined.
b) Describe the algorithm from part (a) in pseudocode.
c) How many comparisons of elements in the sequence are carried out by this algorithm? (Do not count comparisons used to determine whether the end of the sequence has been reached.)
Describe an algorithm that determines whether a function from a finite set of integers to another finite set of integers is onto.
