Find Optimum number of coins for a given money input

By Sidharth Patnaik -
This is a post in which you can use the bellow program to find the optimum number of coins which can substitute the given money. You can infinite 1re, 2rs and 5 rs coin and you want to arrange the input in such a way that you will carry less number of coin with u. This program is not a knapsack implementaion. This program is also not done using the Greedy Approach. This code works fine for all input case. The below program is done using python 2.7

Screenshots/ Demo


Above is the screenshot showing the various test cases 

The Code:
def coins(x):
    fi=0
    tw=0
    on=0
    while(x>0):
        if(x>=5):
            x=x-5;
            fi=fi+1
        elif (x>=2):
            x=x-2;
            tw=tw+1
        else:
            x=x-1;
            on=on+1;
    print "five: "+str(fi)+"\ntwo:"+str(tw)+"\none:"+str(on)

x=input()
coins(x)

This  is a Dynamic program for the implementation of the NON RESTORING Division Algorithm in C Language. Non Restoring Division uses Left Shift Operations, Twos' Compliment and Binary Addition. Screenshots[Demo] The Code #include<stdio.h> #include<malloc.h> int *a,*q,*m,*mc,*c,n,d; int powr(int x,int y) { int s=1,i; for(i=0;i<y;i++) s=s*x; return s; } void print(int arr[],int n) { int i; for(i=0;i<n;i++) printf("%d ",arr[i]); } void bin(int n, int arr[]){ int r, i = 0; do{ r = n % 2; n /= 2; arr[i] = r; i++; }while(n > 0); } void set(int array[], int x){ int i,tmp[20]={0}; for(i = x -1; i >=0; i--) tmp[x-1-i]=array[i]; for(i=0;i<x;i++) array[i]=tmp[i]; } int len(int x) { int i=0; while(powr(2,i)<=x) i++; return ++i; } void addBinary(int a1[], int a2[]) { int bi[2]={0},ca[20]={0}; int t=len(n),tmp=0; int *su=(int*)malloc(sizeof(int)*len(n)); while(t...

Hackerrank String Reduction Solution

By Sidharth Patnaik -

This is the solution to the program, solved in python. The Question can be found in the Algorithm domain of Hackerrank. Problem Statement: Given a string consisting of letters, a, b and c, we can perform the following operation: Take any two adjacent distinct characters and replace them with the third character. For example, if 'a' and 'c' are adjacent, they can replaced by 'b'. Find the smallest string which we can obtain by applying this operation repeatedly? Screenshots[Demo] The Code: def cnt(x): m={} m['a']=0;m['b']=0;m['c']=0 for c in x: if c not in m: m[c]=1 else: m[c]+=1 return m def red(x): xm=cnt(x) print x,xm if((xm['a']==0 and xm['b']==0 ) or (xm['a']==0 and xm['c']==0 ) or (xm['b']==0 and xm['c']==0)): return len(x); if((xm['a']%2==0 and xm['b']%2==0 and xm['c']%2==0) or (...

This is an implementation of the Bit Stuffing popularly used in data communication, also known as one of the concepts of Framing data bits. To know more please  click here. Sample Output: This is a sample output with data binary data entered as 11001111110. Program Code: import java.util.*; public class BitStuffing { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.print("Enter the Binary message: "); Scanner sn=new Scanner(System.in); String data = sn.nextLine(); String res = new String(); String out=new String(); int counter = 0; for(int i=0;i<data.length();i++) { if (data.charAt(i)!='1' && data.charAt(i)!='0') { System.out.println("Enter only Binary values!!!"); return; } ...
