Write a program (in C, or Java, or C++, or C#) that creates
three new threads (besides the already existing main thread) and
synchronizes them in such a way that each thread displays it's
thread id in turn for 5 iterations. The output of the program
should look like this:
Thread 1 - iteration no. 1
Thread 2 - iteration no. 1
Thread 3 - iteration no. 1
Thread 1 - iteration no. 2
Thread 2 - iteration no. 2
Thread 3 - iteration no. 2

Based on the status quo population parameter value (Opportunity Amount USD 91637.26) and information (or lack thereof) regarding the population standard deviation, you will conduct a one tailed hypothesis test based on a level of significance of alpha=0.05. You will choose between a lower and upper tailed test based on your calculated sample mean: -If your sample mean is lower than the status quo population mean, you will be testing that it has decreased from the norm. -If your sample mean is higher than the status quo population mean, you will be testing that it has increased from the norm. Be sure to state the Null and Alternative Hypotheses, the Test Statistic, the Critical Value, and the Test Conclusion. Explain in words how the conclusion of the test could impact the business.

A: Write a divide-and-conquer program to solve the following problem:
1. Let A[1..n] and B[1..n] be two arrays of distinct integers, each sorted in an increasing order.
2. Find the nth smallest of the 2n combined elements. Your program must run in O(log n) time.
For example:
n = 4
If A[1..n] = {2, 5, 8, 9} and B[1..n] = {1, 4, 6, 7}
The nth (i.e. 4th) smallest integer is 5.
If A[1..n] = {2, 5, 8, 13} and B[1..n] = {1, 9, 10, 15}
Then nth smallest integer is 8.
B: Modify your program in A to find the kth smallest number with k < n. Your program must run in O(log n) time.
For example:
n = 4 and k=3
If A[1..n] = {2, 5, 8, 9} and B[1..n] = {1, 4, 6, 7}
The kth (i.e. 3rd) smallest integer is 4.
If A[1..n] = {2, 5, 8, 13} and B[1..n] = {1, 9, 10, 15}
Then kth smallest integer is 5.
C: Modify your program in A to find the kth smallest number when k > n by finding the jth largest number in the 2n combined elements where j=2n-k+1. Your program must run in O(log n) time.
For example:
n = 4 and k=6
If A[1..n] = {2, 5, 8, 9} and B[1..n] = {1, 4, 6, 7}
The kth (i.e. 6th) smallest integer is also the jth (2*4-6+1=3rd) largest integer in the two combined arrays, which is 7.
