Anacrostic may be the most accurate term used, and hence most common, as it is a portmanteau of anagram and acrostic, referencing the fact that the solution is an anagram of the clue answers, and the author of the quote is hidden in the clue answers acrostically.
The Hardest Logic Puzzle Ever is a logic puzzle so called by American philosopher and logician George Boolos and published in The Harvard Review of Philosophy in 1996. [1] [2] Boolos' article includes multiple ways of solving the problem.
A Sudoku starts with some cells containing numbers (clues), and the goal is to solve the remaining cells. Proper Sudokus have one solution. [1] Players and investigators use a wide range of computer algorithms to solve Sudokus, study their properties, and make new puzzles, including Sudokus with interesting symmetries and other properties.
So O=1 and there is a carry in column 3. Since column 1 is on the right of all other columns, it is impossible for it to have a carry. Therefore 1+1=T, and T=2. As column 1 had been calculated in the last step, it is known that there isn't a carry in column 2. But, it is also known that there is a carry in column 3 in the first step. Therefore ...
An anagram is a word or phrase formed by rearranging the letters of a different word or phrase, typically using all the original letters exactly once. [1] For example, the word anagram itself can be rearranged into the phrase "nag a ram"; which is an Easter egg suggestion in Google after searching for the word "anagram". [2]
For instance, for a word made of only two different letters, say n letters A and m letters B, the answer is, of course, 1 or 0 according to whether n = m or not, for the only way to form an anagram without fixed letters is to exchange all the A with B, which is possible if and only if n = m.
The first such anagram dictionary was The Crossword Anagram Dictionary by R.J. Edwards [1] In the other kind of anagram dictionary, words are categorized into equivalence classes that consist of words with the same number of each kind of letter. Thus words will only appear when other words can be made from the same letters.
Abductive logic programming (ALP) is a high-level knowledge-representation framework that can be used to solve problems declaratively, based on abductive reasoning.It extends normal logic programming by allowing some predicates to be incompletely defined, declared as abducible predicates.
