Question 1:
Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions:A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement:
Input: now 41 28 for join 37 go 61
Step I: 61 now 41 28 for join 37 go
Step II: 61 for now 41 28 join 37 go
Step III: 61 for 41 now 28 join 37 go
Step IV: 61 for 41 go now 28 join 37
Step IV: 61 for 41 go now 28 join 37
Step V: 61 for 41 go 37 now 28 join
Step VI: 61 for 41 go 37 join now 28
Step VII: 61 for 41 go 37 join 28 now
Step VIII: is the last step for this input.
As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the given input.
Input: when you 22 special 31 16 47 town. Which of the following steps will be the last but one?
A. IV
B. VI
C. V
Feedback The logic is: the words get arranged in alphabetical order. Where as the numbers get arranged in descending order. Numbers occupy odd places in the final steps while words occupy even positions. When any element gets arranged, the previous element occupying that position shifts one place towards right.
Here we have to find out the penultimate second step.
Input: when you 22 special 31 16 47 town
Step I: 47 when you 22 special 31 16 town
Step II: 47 special when you 22 31 16 town
Step III: 47 special 31 when you 22 16 town
Step IV: 47 special 31 town when you 22 16
Step V: 47 special 31 town 22 when you 16
Step VI: Special 31 town 22 when 16 you
Here, step VI is last step. Thus, the penultimate step will be step V.
