Laboratory Outcomes: The student should be able to:
· Design algorithms using appropriate design techniques (brute-force, greedy, dynamic programming, etc.)

 

· Implement a variety of algorithms such assorting, graph related, combinatorial, etc., in a high level language.

· Analyze and compare the performance of algorithms using language features.

· Apply and implement learned algorithm design techniques and data structuresto solve real-world problems.

Conduct of Practical Examination:
· Experiment distribution

 

o For laboratories having only one part: Students are allowed to pick one experiment from the lot with equal opportunity.

o For laboratories having PART A and PART B: Students are allowed to pick one experiment from PART A and one experiment from PART B, with equal opportunity.

· Change of experiment is allowed only once and marks allotted for procedure to be made zero of the changed part only.

· Marks Distribution (Courseed to change in accoradance with university regulations)

e) For laboratories having only one part – Procedure + Execution + Viva-Voce: 15+70+15 =

100 Marks

f) For laboratories having PART A and PART B

i. Part A – Procedure + Execution + Viva = 6 + 28 + 6 = 40 Marks

ii. Part B – Procedure + Execution + Viva = 9 + 42 + 9 = 60 Marks
