Final Projects list and instructions: CSI33FinalProjects_Spring2018.pdf
Doodle poll (where you state which project you are working on):https://doodle.com/poll/kbmzk9rzgfh2k8cz

Please note that only one person can work on a project. If the project is alreadt taken, chose another one.

In Visual Studio to keep console window "not closed" follow these instructions:
right click your project name,
go to Properties page,
expand Configuration Properties -> Linker -> System,
click on the SubSystem - you will see dropdown menu on the right,
select Console (/SUBSYSTEM:CONSOLE) in dropdown.

By default, the Empty project does not specify it.

Programming assignment: Let's think about doubly-linked lists. Define a class ListNode2, with three attributes: item, leftL, and rightL.
Left link points to the previous node in the list, right link points to the next node in the list.
You can also add the display method to this class (like we did it in class for the ListNode class).
Then test your class.
For example, create a linked list of 5 values: 34, 1, 23, 7, and 10. Display it. Then insert new value, say 8 between 34 and 1 (this time you will have to take care of links pointing to the previous and next node), display the resulting list. Then delete an element, say 7, update the links and display the new list.

3) Short-answer questions: p. 36 / 8 - not for grade
Solution: Chapter1ShortAnswerQuestions.pdf

4) Write a program that has both Linear Search and Binary Search algorithms implemented defined as two seprate functions.
Run each of the algorithms on the list of integers from 0 to 999999 and time them on three different numbers to search for: 10, 499999, and 999999. At the end your program should print the results.
Here is a draft/skeleton of the program: hwAssignment-twoSearches.py

5) Programming Exercises: p. 37-38 / 3, 9
Comments:
* Programming exercise 3 asks you to implement Selection Sort algorithm.
See my comments here: here and
video (about 10 mins) presenting visualization of Selection Sort: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8hXR_Hvybo

* In programming exercise 9 you are not to use the built-in set type.

Reminder: don't forget to put specification for each of the functions you are defining as well as to use internal comments (that start with #)
