[Solved] People Dancing Algorithm

Current answer The previous answer assumed that the movement of people to their new positions would be sequential, i.e. people would start moving together within the same sequence. The answer below assumes that the movement within the same sequence is instantaneous. It uses two arrays to map people from their old positions to their new … Read more

[Solved] How to select n numbers from n sets of different size?

You can use cartesian product on sets in Java by the use of com.google.common.collect.Sets. FOR EXAMPLE Set<Integer> s1=new HashSet<Integer>(); s1.add(1);s1.add(4);s1.add(5); Set<Integer> s2=new HashSet<Integer>(); s2.add(2);s2.add(3);s2.add(6); Set<Integer> s3=new HashSet<Integer>(); s3.add(7);s3.add(8);s3.add(8); Set<List<Integer>> set=Sets.cartesianProduct(s1,s2,s3); //Give type safety warning for(List<Integer> l:set){ System.out.println(l); } OUTPUT [1, 2, 7] [1, 2, 8] [1, 3, 7] [1, 3, 8] …. NOTE If you … Read more

[Solved] Deal with extremely large numbers with Python Programming [closed]

There’s nothing that makes recursion inherently more efficient. Moreover, the same algorithm implemented with recursion is likely to be less efficient due to function call overhead. Worse than that, and this is exactly your case, using recursions of large depth is likely to cause stack overflow (no pun intended). Unless tail-recursion optimization is in use, … Read more

[Solved] Can someone help me with this algorithm?

You could use reduce for this kind of thing, here is an example: var calendar = {Q1 : {P1 : {WK1 : {start: ‘1/1/2018’,end: ‘1/7/2018’},WK2 : {start: ‘1/8/2018’,end: ‘1/14/2018’}},P2 : {WK3 : {start: ‘1/15/2018’,end: ‘1/21/2018’}}},Q2 : {P3 : {WK5 : {start: ‘2/1/2018’,end: ‘2/7/2018’},WK6 : {start: ‘2/8/2018’,end: ‘2/14/2018’}},P4 : {WK7 : {start: ‘2/15/2018’,end: ‘2/21/2018’}}}}; var result … Read more

[Solved] How to find the number of contiguous subsequences / subarrays whose product can be expressed as difference of squares of 2 random integers?

Any number can be represented as a difference of squares if it is odd, or a multiple of 4. The problem arises when a product has only a single 2 in the prime factorisation. So we can mark them. (i.e all the 2) Given this we can easily deduce that only what is not a … Read more

[Solved] I need Help about Loop [closed]

In the first example the value of p is reset to 1 on each iteration for i. In the second example the value of p is set just once and then is never reset, so it’s accumulating in all of the iterations of the loop over i. 1 solved I need Help about Loop [closed]
