• problem 4: implementation of radix sort;
• problem 5: generating permutations in lexicographical order;

Assignment

For submission please follow: assignment 4.

Problems 1-3

From the previous exercises, all problems.

Problem 4

Generation of permutations by using a recursive function, described in the 7'th lecture in English or 7'th lecture in Romanian (from professor Daniela Zaharie).

Problem 5

Sort a list of dates in increasing order (by year, month and then day), by using a variant of radix-sort.

def sort_dates (l) :
    ...
    return r

l = [(2009, 11, 23), (2008, 7, 31), (2010, 6, 29)]
r = sort_dates (l)
print r
# we should see [(2008, 7, 31), (2009, 11, 23), (2010, 6, 29)]
