Task Description

Redo homework 9 with a tree data structure. Instead of employee id now we have a pointer pointing to the boss of an employee, as suggested by the following definition. Note that two different employees may have the same boss, but one employee will only have one boss. The total number of employees is no more than 32. If an employee has no boss, then his/her boss pointer will point to himself/herself.

#ifndef EMPLOYEE_H
#define EMPLOYEE_H
 
typedef struct employee {
  char first_name[32];
  char last_name[32];
  struct employee boss;
} Employee;
 
int relation(Employee employee1, Employee employee2);
#endif

Now implement the following function that returns the relation of employee1 to employee2.

typedef struct me {
    int id;
    char first_name[32];
    char last_name[32];
    int boss_id;
} employee;
 
void readName(employee e) {
    scanf("%s %s", e->first_name, e->last_name);

int nameToIndex(employee *e, employee A[], int n) {
    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        if (!strcmp(A[i].first_name, e->first_name) &&

    }
    return -1;
}
int main() {
    int n, m;
    employee A[32];
    Employee B[32];
    const char out[4][32] = {"subordinate", "supervisor", "colleague", "unrelated"};
    while (scanf("%d", &n) == 1) {
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            scanf("%d", &A[i].id);
            readName(&A[i]);
            scanf("%d", &A[i].boss_id);
        }
 
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            strcpy(B[i].first_name, A[i].first_name);
            strcpy(B[i].last_name, A[i].last_name);
            B[i].boss = NULL;
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
            for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) {
                if (A[i].boss_id == A[j].id)
                    B[i].boss = &B[j];
            }
        }
        scanf("%d", &m);
        employee x, y;
        for (int i = 0; i < m; i++) {
            readName(&x);
            readName(&y);
            int ix = nameToIndex(&x, A, n), iy = nameToIndex(&y, A, n);
            assert(ix != -1);
            assert(iy != -1);
            printf("%d\n", relation(&B[ix], &B[iy]));
        }
    }
    return 0;
}

Again we need the following definition.

• If employee1 can follow the "boss" relation to employee2, then return 1.
• If employee2 can follow the "boss" relation to employee1, then return 2.
• If employee1 and employee2 have a common supervisor, then return 3.
• If none of the above is true, then return 4.
