C++ Program For (SJF) SHORTEST JOB FIRST Scheduling Algorithm

In this tutorial we are required to generate the scheduling algorithm i.e. whichever command will be the shortest time consuming should be executed first. Let's first understand some of the basic terms before implementing the algorithm for SJF.

(SJF) SHORTEST JOB FIRST Scheduling Algorithm

//Implementation fo SHORTEST JOB FIRST(Preemptive) Using C++
#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
typedef struct proccess
{
	int at,bt,ct,ta,wt,btt;
	string pro_id;

	artime = Arrival time,
	bt = Burst time,
	ct = Completion time,
	ta = Turn around time,
	wt = Waiting time
	*/
}Schedule;
bool compare(Schedule a,Schedule b)
{
	return a.at<b.at;
	/* This Schedule will always return TRUE
	if above condition comes*/
}
bool compare2(Schedule a,Schedule b)
{
	return a.bt<b.bt;
	/* This Schedule will always return TRUE
	if above condition comes*/
}
int main()
{
	Schedule pro[10];
	//An array of Processes
	int n,i,j,pcom;

		completion time, turn around time, waiting time*/
