Explanation of Solution

Finding minimum and maximum of "n" numbers:

  • Assume that a binary tree is created with "n" number of nodes.
  • A binary tree can consists of fewer left children nodes and fewer right children nodes.
  • Sometimes, it may not contain any children node.
  • To find the minimum and maximum value, "n2" number of comparisons is required if the total number of children nodes is even.
  • "(n1)2+1" number of comparisons is required to find the minimum and maximum value, if the total number of children nodes is odd.
  • Hence, there is "m" number of comparisons in worst case.
  • Therefore, it can have,

m+m2+m4+m8+....+2=2m2

  • When the total number of children node is even, total number of comparisons to find the minimum and maximum value is,

n2+n2<3n2

  • When

You are tasked with developing a portable system that can be worn to collect health and fitness data. The challenge is to integrate all functions into the smaller form of an ear clip. The device should include heart rate, movement and temperature sensor and wireless communication with a mobile app. Draw a diagram- hardware architecture of the system- including the selection of suitable sensors, communication modules, and an energy-efficient microcontroller. (visualize the components and their connections)
