  2. Eight queens puzzle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eight_queens_puzzle

    The 'minimum-conflicts' heuristic – moving the piece with the largest number of conflicts to the square in the same column where the number of conflicts is smallest – is particularly effective: it easily finds a solution to even the 1,000,000 queens problem. [22] [23]

  3. Gaussian elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_elimination

    A matrix is said to be in reduced row echelon form if furthermore all of the leading coefficients are equal to 1 (which can be achieved by using the elementary row operation of type 2), and in every column containing a leading coefficient, all of the other entries in that column are zero (which can be achieved by using elementary row operations ...

  5. Needleman–Wunsch algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Needleman–Wunsch_algorithm

    A penalty factor, a number subtracted for every gap made, may be assessed as a barrier to allowing the gap. The penalty factor could be a function of the size and/or direction of the gap. [page 444] A better dynamic programming algorithm with quadratic running time for the same problem (no gap penalty) was introduced later [5] by David Sankoff ...

  6. Josephus problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josephus_problem

    The horizontal axis is the number of the person. The vertical axis (top to bottom) is time (the number of cycle). A live person is drawn as green, a dead one is drawn as black. [1] In the particular counting-out game that gives rise to the Josephus problem, a number of people are standing in a circle waiting to be executed. Counting begins at a ...

  7. Graph coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_coloring

    The smallest number of colors needed for an edge coloring of a graph G is the chromatic index, or edge chromatic number, χ ′ (G). A Tait coloring is a 3-edge coloring of a cubic graph. The four color theorem is equivalent to the assertion that every planar cubic bridgeless graph admits a Tait coloring.

  8. Longest increasing subsequence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_increasing_subsequence

    In the Robinson–Schensted correspondence between permutations and Young tableaux, the length of the first row of the tableau corresponding to a permutation equals the length of the longest increasing subsequence of the permutation, and the length of the first column equals the length of the longest decreasing subsequence. [3]

  9. Nonogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonogram

    The clue 2 produces the number (2 - 2 =) 0; if there were a 1 clue, it would produce the number (1 - 2 =) -1. To fill in the blocks, assume the blocks are all pushed to one side, count from that side "through" the blocks, and backfill the appropriate number of blocks. This can be done from either direction.
