Re: [algogeeks] String Problems
I was thinking about a substring matching, but if that's not what you need, then you still have the same number of strings, but finding a matching in a string would take quadratic time on the length of the string, instead of linear time. 2010/5/20 vignesh radhakrishnan rvignesh1...@gmail.com @Marcio, I get your algo now. So a substring match is also a match. I get your approach. Thank you. Any ideas for the second problem?

Re: [algogeeks] Re: number calculation
http://code.google.com/codejam/contest/dashboard?c=32016#s=aa=2 2010/5/19 Adrian kri...@gmail.com The only solution I can think of is to use the binomial theorem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binomial_theorem) to expand (3+sqrt(5))^n . Then you only need to take into the account the terms where y (sqrt(5)) has an odd power because all others are integers and won't affect the decimals. Then after adding them up you'll end up with something like n * sqrt(5) where n is the total of the coeficients of sqrt(5) and then just do the math and find out the 3 decimals. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Algorithm Geeks group.

Re: [algogeeks] General issues about ACM (uva.onlinejudge.org) tasks and problem 103
After ordering, you can solve it like the Longest Increasing Sequence (LIS) problem, using Dynamic Programming. 2010/5/19 bob198107 robertosp...@gmail.com Hi. First: I'm new in ACM. 2 day took me to find out how to read and write data in the tasks. There should be some sample code for beginners for this. Second: For me it is not clear what should be done, even if I read the text of the tasks few times. I wonder if I am so intellectually limited or it has to be so, but I don't know how to bite it. Third: I sit on problem 103 Stacking Boxes. I sorted input rows (each box lengths increasingly). Then I thought I have to sort boxes by the capacity or something like that. So I sorted boxes by perimeter increasingly. And then check if boxes nest to each other starting from the smallest one. For sample input data from uva.onlinejudge.org and www.algorithmist.com it works fine. For my data too. But it has to be wrong cause' of Wrong answer if I submit the code. I would like my algorithm to work. Fourth: Solution from http://cmagical.blogspot.com/2010/01/dowloads-1submitted-solutions-to... works but I found place which I don't really understand: #includestdio.h #includestdlib.h const int MAX = 33; int boxes[MAX][12]; int rawIndex[MAX], v[MAX]; int path[MAX], rawsNumber, dimention; int compare(const void *a, const void *s) { return *(int *)a - *(int *)s; } int compareRaws(int n, int m){ for (int i = 0; i dimention; i++) { if (boxes[n][i] = boxes[m][i]) { return 0; } } return 1; } void sortIndexes() { for (int i = 0; i rawsNumber - 1; i++) { for (int j = i + 1; j rawsNumber; j++) { if (compareRaws(rawIndex[i], rawIndex[j])) { rawIndex[i] ^= rawIndex[j] ^= rawIndex[i] ^= rawIndex[j]; } } } } void print(int n){ if (path[n] == -1) { printf(%d, rawIndex[n] + 1); return; } print(path[n]); printf( %d, rawIndex[n] + 1); } void solveCase() { int max, indexSize = 0, last; int par; sortIndexes(); -- THIS PLACE I DON'T UNDERSTAND for (int i = 0; i rawsNumber; i++) { max = 0; par = -1; for (int j = i - 1; j = 0; j--) { if (compareRaws(rawIndex[i], rawIndex[j])) { if (v[j] max) { max = v[j]; par = j; } } } path[i] = par; v[i] = max + 1; if (v[i] indexSize) { indexSize = v[i]; last = i; } } printf(%d\n, indexSize); print(last); putchar('\n'); } void readCase(){ for (int i = 0; i rawsNumber; i++) { rawIndex[i] = i; for (int j = 0; j dimention; j++) { scanf(%d, boxes[i][j]); } qsort(boxes[i], dimention, sizeof(int), compare); // sorting every read raw } } int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { while (scanf(%d%d, rawsNumber, dimention) == 2) { readCase(); solveCase(); } return 0; } It's kind of sorting indexes of raws by comparing values of two fields i and j for each i and j. Rest of it is the algorithm I can imagine. So any suggestions or reply to my rubbishy writing pleased welcome. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups acm_solver group.

Re: [algogeeks] String Problems

Re: [algogeeks] combination problem
It's equivalent to (x1-1)+(x2-1)+. . .+(xk-1)=n-k (You need n=k) yi = xi - 1, so for every 1=i=k, we have that yi is non-negative.
