If any sim is empty for 1 ≤ m ≤ k, then skip it.?
Sorry friend i couldn't understand the above sentence, can you please elobrate that.

Assume you had the last L bits flagged as used for the first L iterations (iL), and for the (L+1)st bit you were in the (K-L+1)th position or higher, then all of the characters after this starting position are in use and your character will be empty, so skip the concatenation.

Which of these data structures is the fastest:
1) Binary Tree.
2) Stack.
3) Hash Table.

Depends on the implementation, and what do you like to do with it.
Inserting: Stack O(1), BinTree O(log n)
Deleting: Stack O(1), BinTree O(log n)
Searching: Stack O(n), BinTree O(log n)
Sorting: Stack O(n²), BinTree O(n log n)
Hash Table should be nearly the same to Binary Tree (I not quiet sure. It's monday morning, and I'm still almost asleep).

Every data structure has a specific use.
lists are designed for inset-in-the middle scenerios, just as stacks are designed for Last-In-First-Out scenerios. A stack really can't be compared to the other two because usage is completely different.
A binary tree is not a replacement for a list, per se. Though it does handle add-anywhere scenerios, as does a Hash table. A binary tree is much superior to a list for searching, and even over a hash-table for some-search operations. A hash table is a one to one relationship with a key, and requires pre-allocated space. That makes its memory overhead a constant, its access time for any "one" item a constant. But if you want to output in sorted format, a hash is lousy, and a tree is still great.

For search: Hashtable
BT is O(log n)
Stack is O(n)
HT is O(1)

Hashtable is the fastest for finding an exact value.
Binary tree is best if you need to do searches like "get the smallest value that is greater (or equal) some value".
You don't search in a stack, it always returns the element on top.

Hi.
It also depends on where/how the dats is stored. If it resides on disk rather than loaded into memory (due to a large dataset) then the access method will make a diffrence. A hash table might make no sense if the data cannot be contained completely within 'main' memory. It really depends on a number of factors and in the real world data cannot always be loaded as a whole. IBM developed the VSAM architecture which deals with this very issue, it is a b-tree that allows very fast access to a dataset of indeterminate size.

A hash table does not have anything to do with memory, it is simply a method of associating a fixed size group of objects with a key. You can setup a large file with file pointer associated with the hash key. You can even use a double hash to associate multiple files and file pointers within with a key, or a split hash for the same. The problem with a hash table is it always represents access to a fixed size object (or group of objects), once the size and method is fixed it can be hashed. Access method is really irrelevant and simply up to the programmer. When you max out the hash table you have to completely rebuild it, that is when a hash table is a really, really innefficent.

You can use hash tables on disk. If the hash table is not filled too much, you need only one seek operation (except for the few collisions where you might need two) to find a value, which is faster than any tree.
And if you're reading from disk, the "seek" is going to be the slow part.

Does any one has the idea of the exact calculation for superscript and subscript style of font. I mean the font is shrinked in MSWord. What calculation is used ? and also the baseline are moved as well. What are the standard calculations behind it ?

if i have a text file, and this file contains sentences as lines.
each line my be english or other unicode language, and sometimes both.
now, i want to detect the lines that include english (A-z) and remove it.
Is there any way to detect that there is (A-z) character like calculate the summation of sentence charaters.
considering that i've converted the file encoding to something like UTF-8 or ISO-8859-15...etc
and is a deference of the size of the charater when converting from one encoding to another?

Just load in the data from the file and march through it looking for the characters in that range.

UTF-8 is an 8-bit encoding. That means that each character is stored in 8-bits. This doesn't allow for many characters and the standard pretty much just has English characters in that set. UTF-16 is a 16-bit encoding which can hold character sets from many different languages. The size of each character in UTF-16 is exactly twice the size of a UTF-8 character.

Its not. UTF-8 is a variable-length encoding, using one to four bytes per character.

It is an 8-bit encoding, though I probably could have been more specific by saying that it uses a maximum of 8-bits.

To my knowledge, UTF-8 is a variable length encoding. You are right in one aspect: As long as you only use the first 127 UC characters, every character will be stored in 8 bits. As soon as you choose any other unicode character, that character will use up to four byte (32 bits).
UTF-8 is NOT a "8-bit encoding able to represent a subset of unicode characters", but a "Unicode encoding designed to be able to represent the most commonly used unicode character with as few bytes as possible".
Cheers,
Sebastian

You can find the RFC for it there as well. UTF-8 only holds the lower subset of the UNICODE standard. UTF-16 holds the whole thing.

No it does not, as you'd know if you actually read the first few lines of your link.

UTF-8 stands for Unicode Transformation Format-8. It is an octet (8-bit) lossless encoding of Unicode characters.
UTF-8 encodes each Unicode character as a variable number of 1 to 4 octets, where the number of octets depends on the integer value assigned to the Unicode character. It is an efficient encoding of Unicode documents that use mostly US-ASCII characters because it represents each character in the range U+0000 through U+007F as a single octet. UTF-8 is the default encoding for XML.
Which is what Sebastian said. It's 8bits for us ascii, and expands to upto 32 for the remainder of unicode.

I stand corrected. Sorry, I misread what it was saying the first time around.

Happens. I misread stuff all the time. My girlfriend, for example. She writes me a note "I love you. Clean the bathroom, if you find time." and I take it to mean what it says: if I find time, I'll clean the bathroom. Unfortunately, my chainsaw breaks and I have to mend it because I need it the next day... and then I spend the night on the couch 
Cheers,

Yeah, me too. But still, I downloaded it and can't print it. So I have to wait for my SONY reader to come in.
