  2. Art gallery problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_gallery_problem

    In decision problem versions of the art gallery problem, one is given as input both a polygon and a number k, and must determine whether the polygon can be guarded with k or fewer guards. This problem is -complete, as is the version where the guards are restricted to the edges of the polygon. [10]

  3. Parsons problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsons_problem

    Parsons problems consist of a partially completed solution and a selection of lines of code that some of which, when arranged appropriately, correctly complete the solution. There is great flexibility in how Parsons problems can be designed, including the types of code fragments from which to select, and how much structure of the solution is ...

  4. Millennium Prize Problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennium_Prize_Problems

    The problem, restricted to the case of an incompressible flow, is to prove either that smooth, globally defined solutions exist that meet certain conditions, or that they do not always exist and the equations break down. The official statement of the problem was given by Charles Fefferman. [13]

  5. NP-completeness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NP-completeness

    A polynomial-time problem can be very difficult to solve in practice if the polynomial's degree or constants are large enough. In addition, information-theoretic security provides cryptographic methods that cannot be broken even with unlimited computing power. "A large-scale quantum computer would be able to efficiently solve NP-complete problems."

  6. Dangling else - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangling_else

    This problem often comes up in compiler construction, especially scannerless parsing.The convention when dealing with the dangling else is to attach the else to the nearby if statement, [2] allowing for unambiguous context-free grammars, in particular.

  7. List of unsolved problems in computer science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    The problem to determine all positive integers such that the concatenation of and in base uses at most distinct characters for and fixed [citation needed] and many other problems in the coding theory are also the unsolved problems in mathematics.

  8. Boolean satisfiability problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boolean_satisfiability_problem

    Weights of propositional variables are given in the input of the problem. The weight of an assignment is the sum of weights of true variables. That problem is NP-complete (see Th. 1 of [26]). Other generalizations include satisfiability for first- and second-order logic, constraint satisfaction problems, 0-1 integer programming.

  9. Undecidable problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undecidable_problem

    A decision problem whose input consists of strings or more complex values is formalized as the set of numbers that, via a specific Gödel numbering, correspond to inputs that satisfy the decision problem's criteria. A decision problem A is called decidable or effectively solvable if the formalized set of A is a recursive set.
