Answer: c) 9
Quadratic Probing We look for i2‘th slot in i’th iteration.
let hash(x) be the slot index computed using hash function. If slot hash(x) % S is full, then we try (hash(x) + 1*1) % S If (hash(x) + 1*1) % S is also full, then we try (hash(x) + 2*2) % S If (hash(x) + 2*2) % S is also full, then we try (hash(x) + 3*3) % S
......................................................................................................................................
Here we have the hash function hash(X) = X mod 100
for the given key value X = 4594
First Attempt
the hash value yielded would be 4594 mod 100 = 94
It was given that the first three locations attempted were already occupied
So the location 94 was occupied.
Second Attempt
As we are using Quadratic probing We look for i2‘th slot in i’th iteration.
So the first i2 index would be 1*1 = 1
The second attempted location was occupied as well.
Third Attempt
The next i2 value would be 2 * 2 = 4
The third attempted location was occupied as well
Fourth Attempt (Question)
The next i2 value would be 3 * 3 = 9

The next cell will be tried is 9

Please provide a brief but precise explanation of your answers. You throw a dart at a circular target of radius r. Let X be the distance of your dart's hit from the center of the target. Your aim is such that X is an exponential distribution with parameter 4/r (a) As a function of r, determine the value m such that P(X < m) = P(X > m). (b) What is the probability that you miss the target completely?
