What are five reasons why one would need to find the kth smallest number of an array? Also known as the Selection Problem.
I'm looking for 5 real world examples.
Will definitely give brainliest!
The Selection Problem is a problem where we must find the kth order statistic of a given array. As in, we must find the largest kth number. For example, if our array is [1, 3, 4, 5, 9], and k = 3, we would want to find the 3rd largest number, so our algorithm should output the number 4.
