It is only counter intuitive due to the small number of doors. If you would have ten doors and open eight after the winner had selected a door, then intuition shows that is obvious to switch.

And even if they would know, due to the distance and general relativity, there is no concept of one of the two persons looking first. It could be that from Alice's point of view Bob looked later, while from Bob's point of view Ali

I believe that this is about a different type of TSP problem, where the distances between cities are defined by the geometric distance from their coordinates in some plane (or on a sphere). This is a simpler problem than when the distances

I think the parent wanted to point out that this is about a completely different problem. The algorithm mentioned works on cities that are defined with coordinates in some plane and where the distances between two points is defined as the g

An introduction such as this, should also explain about ways of working with git and not just explain the commands. I still remember the first time when I started working with git, that I was warned never to use rebase, because it could be

We evolved in a species that is just intelligent enough to develop technology but not intelligent enough to handle it properly. You do not only see this with the (ab)use of fossil fuels, but also, for example, with respect to the use of ant

I have to admit that I was little joking about this. But I do think it is possible to specify an implementation of how a complex operation can be achieve by combining more primitive operations. With digital computers, data is usually repres

One day, maybe when I am retired, I am going to develop a programming language-agnostic algorithm specifying language with which you can generate code for programming languages ;-). A kind om Mathematica, but than for software.

It might be that architectural designs are copyrighted as well in the countries and maybe that different rules apply when you want to use a design in a game than using it in an information service, such as a mapping service.

I usually use this algorithm (in C-like syntax) with modulo division: int gcd(int a, int b) { while (b != 0) { int c = a % b; a = b; b = c; } return a; } I think it is a rather efficient algorithm bec

In my late teen years, I had a transcendental experience at a youth rally and became a devoted ('born again') Christian and remained this for several decades. There is nobody who questioned my faith more than I myself. In the end

There is a difference between people writing programs to generate art and (classically trained) artist who use programs to investigate art. I guess there are more examples of the first and fewer of the latter. One Dutch artist who in 1969 s

I wonder if the Tao is so profound as it is interpreted in the West, because the understanding of the text, much lies on the nature of the Chinese language, which is much more about concepts, than about words. For example, the 'the Tao
