  1. Lynbrook Computer Science Member Meeting: October 27th, 2008

  2. American Computer Science League • Two Divisions: • Intermediate • Senior • First Competition: December 19th, 2008 • Short Problem (like CAML) + Programming problem • Topics: • Boolean Logic • Graph Theory • Recursion • Converting between Number Systems (dec, oct, hex, bin) • Data Structures

  3. Senior Div. Sample Problems (taken from ACSL website) BASIC Program: If the following program prints 15, what was the input? 1 input N 2 if N > 5 then N = N + 8 3 if N > 12 then N = N - 6 4 if N >= 8 then N = N + 1 5 print N 6 end

  4. BASIC I/O Solution Work Backwards: • Line 4: N = 14 • Line 3: N = 20 • Line 2: N = 12 Answer: 12

  5. Here are some more… Computer Number Systems • What is the base 16 value of FEDCBA16 – ABCDEF16? Recursive Functions • Find f(10, 5) given the following: • If x > y then f(x, y) = f(x-2, y+1) + 3 • If x < y then f(x, y) = f(x+1, y-3) + 2 • Otherwise, f(x, y) = 5

  6. Computer Number Systems Solution • Work from right to left, and borrow as needed: 1A – F = B 1B – E – 1 = C 1C – D – 1 = E D – C – 1 = 0 E – B = 3 F – A = 5 Answer: 530ECB16

  7. Recursive Function Solution Work through the recursion • f(10, 5) = f(8, 6) + 3 • f(8, 6) = f(6, 7) + 3 • f(6, 7) = f(7, 4) + 2 • f(7, 4) = f(5, 5) + 3 • F(5, 5) = 5 Going backwards and summing up everything, Answer = 16

  8. Miscellaneous • More sample problems available at ACSL.org • TopCoder competitions: • Single Round Match (SRM): 10/28 @ 6PM • TopCoder High School SRM: 10/28 @ 6PM • Register before 3PM! • Marathon Match : 10/29-11/5 • Remember to sign in! • Turn in your checks ($15, payable to Lynbrook ASB) into Stephen Li if you haven’t already! • Check for updates at LynbrookCS.com
