Special awards exist for solving special combinations of problems. For instance, there is an award for solving fifty prime numbered problems. A special "Eulerians" level exists to track achievement based on the fastest fifty solvers of recent problems so that newer members can compete without solving older problems.
In software engineering, rubber duck debugging (or rubberducking) is a method of debugging code by articulating a problem in spoken or written natural language. The name is a reference to a story in the book The Pragmatic Programmer in which a programmer would carry around a rubber duck and debug their code by forcing themselves to explain it ...
CS32 (Computational Thinking and Problem Solving), taught by Michael D. Smith, [29] is an alternative to CS50 but does not have a free online version. [30] The next course in sequence after CS32 or CS50 is CS51: Abstraction and Design in Computation, instructed by Stuart M. Shieber with Brian Yu as co-instructor. [31]
David Jay Malan (/ m eɪ l ɛ n /) is an American computer scientist and professor. Malan is a Gordon McKay Professor of Computer Science at Harvard University, and is best known for teaching the course CS50, [2] [3] which is the largest open-learning course at Harvard University and Yale University and the largest massive open online course at EdX, with lectures being viewed by over a million ...
Artelys Knitro is a commercial software package for solving large scale nonlinear mathematical optimization problems. KNITRO – (the original solver name) short for " N onlinear I nterior point T rust R egion O ptimization" (the "K" is silent) – was co-created by Richard Waltz, Jorge Nocedal , Todd Plantenga and Richard Byrd.
Worked example of assigning tasks to an unequal number of workers using the Hungarian method. The assignment problem is a fundamental combinatorial optimization problem. In its most general form, the problem is as follows:
Code has been included in the syllabi of post-secondary education technical courses, such as "Fundamentals of Modern Software" where it was called "a little dated, but it is a really clear and incredibly accessible presentation of how computers get from electrical currents flowing down wires to programs you can actually use" [8] and other ...
Solution of a travelling salesman problem: the black line shows the shortest possible loop that connects every red dot. In the theory of computational complexity, the travelling salesman problem (TSP) asks the following question: "Given a list of cities and the distances between each pair of cities, what is the shortest possible route that visits each city exactly once and returns to the ...
