| Question 10 |
Consider the following recursive definition of fib:
fib (n) : = if n = 0 then 1
else if n = 1 than 1
else fib (n – 1) + fib (n – 2) The number of times fib is called (including the first call) for an evaluation of fib (7) is ___________
| 41 |
Question 10 Explanation:
The recurrence relation for the no. of calls is
T(n) = T(n-1) + T(n-2) + 2
T(0) = T(1) = 0 (for fib(0) and fib(1), there are no extra recursive calls)
T(2) = 2
T(3) = 4
T(4) = 8
T(5) = 14
T(6) = 24
T(7) = 40
Counting the initial call, we get
40+1 = 41
T(n) = T(n-1) + T(n-2) + 2
T(0) = T(1) = 0 (for fib(0) and fib(1), there are no extra recursive calls)
T(2) = 2
T(3) = 4
T(4) = 8
T(5) = 14
T(6) = 24
T(7) = 40
Counting the initial call, we get
40+1 = 41
