Description: The goal of this assignment is to compare the empirical complexity of two sorting algorithms: a) Heap sort and b) Radix sort.
Instructions:
- Implement the above two sorting algorithms using Java or any other programming language.
- Repeatedly generate random input instances containing 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000, 5000, 10000, 15000, … 50 000. The generated numbers must be between 0 and 100.
- Execute both algorithms to sort the randomly generated arrays.
- Compare the running time of both algorithms and validate their theoretical complexity.
Comment your source code and upload it along with a Word document presenting your results. The report should contain plots illustrating the obtained results and facilitating the comparison of the time complexity of both algorithms.
Hints: The theoretical time complexity for a Heap sort algorithm is O (n log n) and O(d(n+b)) for the Radix sort. As above indicated, b is 10 and d is 3. Considering that configuration, the empirical time complexity of Radix sort should be better than the Heap sort.
Extra: Empirical Study of the impact of d
What if the randomly generated numbers become between 0 and 10 000000 instead of 0-100. Will the Radix algorithm continue to perform better than heap sort? If not, what is the value of d at which Heap sort becomes better than Radix sort. Vary d and re-plot the performance of both algorithms.

Until about the year 2000, managed care was viewed by many (mostly employers) as an effective means of controlling health care costs. Briefly address why there has been a backlash against HMOs since 2000.

C PROGRAM ..... NOT C++
PROGRAM 3 (UPDATE TO TWO PRIOR PROGRAMS FOR REFERENCE OF PRIOR PROGRAM INSTRUCTIONS PLEASE SEE BELOW)
PROGRAM 3
Adjust program II to make use of functions. All the same rules from the previous program specifications still apply, for example input gathering, output formatting and breaking on -1 still apply.
Additional requirements.
Example (Sample input & output for one person)
Enter name: Glenn
Enter hourly rate: 2.00
Enter hours worked: 50
Enter name: -1
Pay to: Glenn
Hours worked: 50.0
Hourly rate: $ 2.00
Gross pay: $110.00
Base pay: $ 80.00
Overtime pay: $ 30.00
Taxes paid: $ 22.00
Net pay: $ 88.00
Total Paid to all employees = $110.00
(The grand total of payments out.)
PROGRAM 1 AND 2 (JUST FOR REFERENCE NO CODE NEEDED)
PROGRAM 1
Payroll application
PROGRAM 2
Payroll 2.0
Update the first program.
The program logic will first load all of the data, until the user enters the max number of records, or they input -1 for one of the fields. After the data is loaded, it will then be processed and output generated.
CODE USED FOR PROGRAM 2:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void main()
{
char name[5][30];
float hourly_rate[5], hours_worked[5];
float n, gross;
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
printf("\nEnter the first name: ");
scanf("%s", name[i]);
if (!strcmp(name[i], "-1"))
break;
printf("\nEnter the hourly rate: ");
scanf("%f", &hourly_rate[i]);
if (hourly_rate[i] == -1)
break;
printf("\nEnter the hours worked: ");
scanf("%f", &hours_worked[i]);
if (hours_worked[i] == -1)
break;
}
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
if (!strcmp(name[i], "-1"))
break;
if (hourly_rate[i] == -1)
break;
if (hours_worked[i] == -1)
break;
printf("\nPay to: %s", name[i]);
printf("\nHours worked: %f", hours_worked[i]);
printf("\nHourly rate: $%f", hourly_rate[i]);
if (hours_worked[i] > 40)
{
n = hours_worked[i] - 40;
gross = (40 * hourly_rate[i]) + (n * hourly_rate[i] * 1.5);
printf("\nGross pay: $ %f", gross);
printf("\nBase pay: $ %f", 40 * hourly_rate[i]);
printf("\nOvertime pay: $ %f", n * hourly_rate[i] * 1.5);
printf("\nTax paid: $ %f", gross * .20);
printf("\nNet paid: $ %f", gross - (gross * .20));
}
else
{
printf("\nGross pay:$ %f", hourly_rate[i] * hours_worked[i]);
printf("\nBase pay: $ %f", hourly_rate[i] * hours_worked[i]);
printf("\nTax paid: $ %f", hourly_rate[i] * hours_worked[i] *
.20);
printf("\nNet pay: $ %f", (hourly_rate[i] * hours_worked[i]) -
(hourly_rate[i] * hours_worked[i] * .20));
}
}

The DHFS is interested in predictive techniques that provide
reliable utilization forecasts to update Medicaid funding rate
schedule of nursing facilities. (Frees 2010).
Note that the in order to measure the utility of nursing homes a
quantity called patient days is defined which is the number of days
each patient was in the facility added for the number of patients
ie P D = d1 + d2 + ....dn, where di = number of days ith patient
spends in the nursing home and PD is an abbreviation for patient
days. The variables for this exercise are defined as follows.
1. Total patient years; TPY
2. The number of beds; NUMBED
3. Square footage of the nursing home; SQRFOOT
Descriptive Statistics Use R code
Compute the following for TPY, NUMBED, SQRFOOT
i mean (3 points)
ii standard deviation
iii median
Construct the histogram for TPY, NUMBED, SQRFOOT. Comment on the shape of the distributions for all three variables. (6 points)
Construct a qq plot for each variable. Do the variables appear to be normally distributed? (6 points)

The patient's history for update purposes
Patient A age 70. He is obese and 100% sedentary. He needs to do physical exercises, to lose weight, to decrease stress and to eat better (but he does not do that). He has diabetes: 25 years ago, he was diagnosed with diabetes type 2 and he has to take insulin.
Diet: He eats meat 3 times a day and does not eat dietary fiber.
Emotional: He is stressed and anxious, and works hard.
Parents: The mother and father died young because of complications of diabetes. Father: died at age 53 of myocardial infarction.
Symptoms now: shortness of breath, chest pain due to physical exertion (angina).
Has high blood pressure: 140/90. Never had hypertension before. His doctor prescribed for hypertension: Vasotec (enalapril).
He must take the following exams:
FSC: red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets
Lipid profile
Creatinine test
Uremia test (urine in the blood)
Electrolytes test (usually sodium or potassium or an acid-base imbalance)
Clearance of creatinine test
HbA1c test (also called glycated hemoglobin test, and glycohemoglobin)
Stress ECG test
Urine analysis
3 weeks later, the results:
Clearance of creatinine test show to us the GFR (Glomerular
Filtration Rate) results:
GFR 55mL/min (normal: 90-125mL/min)
Lipid profile: low level HDL, high level LDL
Plasma creatinine level (creatinine test): 150 mmol/L (normal: 50-110 umol/L)
Uremia test : 8 mmol/L (N : 3 - 6,5 mmol/L)
Urine analysis: 120 mg/L of proteins (normal: < 80 mg/L)
Stress ECG test: Anomalies related to unstable angina
Doctor's conclusion: chronic renal insufficiency (CRI), unstable angina. Needs to do an emergency angiography.
Angiography test results: several atheroma plaques in the coronary arteries. He had to put four stents during the procedure.
He had to take these medicaments:
Clopidogrel (Plavix), Aspirine (acide salicylique, for 1 year), and Crestor (is a statine). And also, the insulin and Vasotec (énalapril).
Question A: Search for in the medication guide the family and the mechanisms of action of used medications.
