Class 2 - Find the Torsional Angle python
Problem Statement :
You are given four points A,B,C and D in a 3-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. You are required to print the angle between the plane made by the points A,B,C and B,C,D in degrees(not radians). Let the angle be PHI. Cos(PHI) = (X.Y) / |X| |Y| where X=AB x BC and Y= BC x CD. Here, X.Y means the dot product of X and Y, and AB x BC means the cross product of vectors AB and BC. Also, AB = B-A. Input Format One line of input containing the space separated floating number values of the X,Y and Z coordinates of a point. Output Format Output the angle correct up to two decimal places.
Solution :
Solution in C :
import operator
import math
def cross(p1, p2):
return [p1[1]*p2[2]-p1[2]*p2[1], p1[2]*p2[0]-p1[0]*p2[2], p1[0]*p2[1]-p1[1]*p2[0]]
def dot(p1, p2):
return sum(map(operator.mul, p1, p2))
def subtract(a, b):
return list(map(operator.sub, a, b))
def length(a):
return math.sqrt(dot(a,a))
def parsePoint(str):
components = str.split()
return list(map(float, components))
A = parsePoint(input())
B = parsePoint(input())
C = parsePoint(input())
D = parsePoint(input())
AB = subtract(A,B)
BC = subtract(B,C)
CD = subtract(C,D)
X = cross(AB,BC)
Y = cross(BC,CD)
PHI = math.degrees(math.acos(dot(X,Y)/(length(X)*length(Y))))
print("{0:.2f}".format(PHI))

Insert a Node at the head of a Linked List
Given a pointer to the head of a linked list, insert a new node before the head. The next value in the new node should point to head and the data value should be replaced with a given value. Return a reference to the new head of the list. The head pointer given may be null meaning that the initial list is empty. Function Description: Complete the function insertNodeAtHead in the editor below
View Solution →Insert a node at a specific position in a linked list
Given the pointer to the head node of a linked list and an integer to insert at a certain position, create a new node with the given integer as its data attribute, insert this node at the desired position and return the head node. A position of 0 indicates head, a position of 1 indicates one node away from the head and so on. The head pointer given may be null meaning that the initial list is e
View Solution →Delete a Node
Delete the node at a given position in a linked list and return a reference to the head node. The head is at position 0. The list may be empty after you delete the node. In that case, return a null value. Example: list=0->1->2->3 position=2 After removing the node at position 2, list'= 0->1->-3.

View Solution →Reverse a linked list
Given the pointer to the head node of a linked list, change the next pointers of the nodes so that their order is reversed. The head pointer given may be null meaning that the initial list is empty. Example: head references the list 1->2->3->Null. Manipulate the next pointers of each node in place and return head, now referencing the head of the list 3->2->1->Null. Function Descriptio
View Solution →Compare two linked lists
You’re given the pointer to the head nodes of two linked lists. Compare the data in the nodes of the linked lists to check if they are equal. If all data attributes are equal and the lists are the same length, return 1. Otherwise, return 0. Example: list1=1->2->3->Null list2=1->2->3->4->Null The two lists have equal data attributes for the first 3 nodes. list2 is longer, though, so the lis
