Consider the following function that takes as input a sequence $A$ of integers with n elements,$A[1],A[2], \dots ,A[n]$ and an integer $k$ and returns an integer value. The function length$(S)$ returns the length of the sequence $S$. Comments ... complexity of this algorithm in terms of the length of the input sequence $A$? Give an example of a worst-case input for this algorithm.

We are given a sequence of pairs of integers $(a_1, b_1),(a_2, b_2), \dots ,(a_n, b_n)$. We would like to compute the largest $k$ such that there is a sequence of numbers $c_{i_1} \leq c_{i_2} \leq \dots \leq c_{i_k}$ ... each $j \leq k$, $c_{i_j}=a_{i_j}$ or $c_{i_j} = b_{i_j}$ . Describe an algorithm to solve this problem and explain its complexity.

An undirected graph is $\text{connected}$ if, for any two vertices $\{u, v\}$ of the graph, there is a path in the graph starting at $u$ and ending at $v$. A tree is a connected, undirected graph that contains no cycle. A $\text{leaf}$ in a tree is a vertex that ... $ \in V_2$ or vice versa. Prove that if $G$ is a tree with at least two vertices, then $G$ is bipartite.
