Description Soon after he decided to design a T-shirt for our Algorithm Board on Free-City BBS, XKA found that he was trapped by all kinds of suggestions from everyone on the board. It is indeed a mission-impossible to have everybody perfectly satisf…
Description In a k bit 2's complement number, where the bits are indexed from 0 to k-1, the weight of the most significant bit (i.e., in position k-1), is -2^(k-1), and the weight of a bit in any position i (0 ≤ i < k-1) is 2^i. For example, a 3 bit…
Description Sally Jones has a dozen Voyageur silver dollars. However, only eleven of the coins are true silver dollars; one coin is counterfeit even though its color and size make it indistinguishable from the real silver dollars. The counterfeit coi…
