An algorithm will be used to calculate the difference between the smallest and largest values in a list. For the list of [10, 3, 5, 6], it should calculate a difference of 7.
There are two proposals for the algorithm:
Algorithm 1:
Set minVal to the first value in the list and maxVal to the last value in the list.
Iterate through each number in the list.
If the number is greater than maxVal, store it in maxVal.
If the number is less than minVal, store it in minVal.
After loop, set maxDiff to the difference between maxVal and minVal.
Algorithm 2:
Set minVal to 1000 and maxVal to 0.
Iterate through each number in the list.
If the number is greater than maxVal, store it in maxVal.
If the number is less than minVal, store it in minVal.
After loop, set maxDiff to the difference between maxVal and minVal.
Which of these statements are true about these algorithms?
I. Algorithm 1 does not work on lists where the smallest value is at the start of the list or the largest value is at the end of the list.
II. Algorithm 2 does not work on lists that contain all negative numbers or all numbers over 1000.
I only
II only
I and II only
Neither I nor II
