Write a function get_hops_from(page1, page2) that will determine the number of hyperlinks that you would need to click on to get from some page1 on the web to some other page2 on the web. For example, if each page below links to the pages that are indented below it, e.g. page 1 links to pages 2 and 5, and page 2 links to pages 3 and 4, and page 5 links to pages 3 and 7, then the get_hops_from(page1, page7) should return 2 (2 hops), since you have to hop once from page 1 to 5 and once more from page 5 to page 7. page1 : distance == 0 page2 : distance == 1 page3 : distance == 2 page4 : distance == 2 page5 : distance == 2 page3 : distance == 2 page7 : distance == 2 Assume that an API is available to: * get_links(a_page) will return an array/list of all pages that a_page links to

Given an integer array, write a program that returns an array with elements = product of the integers in input array except the one in its position. Ex: Given input: [2, 3, 10, 4, 5], output: [600, 400, 120, 300, 240] What is the complexity of your program? When will your program not work? Below is what I presented (O(n)), but it did not qualify me for the next round.

public class Person { Person father; Person mother; Gender gender; Integer age; List<Person> children; int level = 0; public enum Gender { Male, Female; } } For the above class, you basically have to implement 2 methods. public List<Person> getOldestSisters() public List<Person> getGreatestAncestors()
