  2. Knight's tour - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight's_tour

    The knight's tour problem is the mathematical problem of finding a knight's tour. Creating a program to find a knight's tour is a common problem given to computer science students. [ 3 ] Variations of the knight's tour problem involve chessboards of different sizes than the usual 8 × 8 , as well as irregular (non-rectangular) boards.

    A switch at the bottom of the board triggers the release of the initial ball (typically blue), from the top left of the panel. The second ramp, on the right, contains red balls. Ramps and crossovers – The green ramp allows the balls to run down it one way and release it in only that direction, whereas the orange crossover lets balls traverse ...

  4. Parsons problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsons_problem

    Parsons' programming puzzles became known as Parsons puzzles [2] and then Parsons problems. [3] Parsons problems have become popular as they are easier to grade than written code while capturing the students problem solving ability shown in a code creation process.

    Understanding the problem and associated programming requirements is necessary for choosing the language best suited for the solution." [ 17 ] From Meek & Heath: "The essence of the art of choosing a language is to start with the problem, decide what its requirements are, and their relative importance since it will probably be impossible to ...

    This was an open problem until 2007, when an efficient algorithm based on dynamic programming was published. [14] The minimum number of knife changes problem (for the one-dimensional problem): this is concerned with sequencing and permuting the patterns so as to minimise the number of times the slitting knives have to be moved.

  8. Answer set programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Answer_set_programming

    An early example of answer set programming was the planning method proposed in 1997 by Dimopoulos, Nebel and Köhler. [3] [4] Their approach is based on the relationship between plans and stable models. [5] In 1998 Soininen and Niemelä [6] applied what is now known as answer set programming to the problem of product configuration. [4]

  9. Computer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming

    Computer programming or coding is the composition of sequences of instructions, called programs, that computers can follow to perform tasks. [1] [2] It involves designing and implementing algorithms, step-by-step specifications of procedures, by writing code in one or more programming languages.
