Professor Williams comes up with a scheme that allows the closest-pair algorithm to check only 5 points
Question:
Professor Williams comes up with a scheme that allows the closest-pair algorithm to check only 5 points following each point in array Y′. The idea is always to place points on line l into set PL. Then, there cannot be pairs of coincident points on line l with one point in PL and one in PR. Thus, at most 6 points can reside in the δ × 2δ rectangle. What is the flaw in the professor’s scheme?
