Introduction:
Welcome to CPSC 490 202! This is where you get to learn various cool algorithms
and have the opportunity to apply them to actual problems! If you are still
wondering whether this course is for you, read
our advertisement here! In short, if you
like algorithms and solving problem, you will like the seminar.
To get an idea of what you might be getting into, read our proposal
and syllabus. Notes that the syllabus is
a tentative syllabus and only illustrate what the course will look
like.
Here is a sample problem to give you an idea of
the type of homework you will see. Here's the hint
for the sample problem.
Important News:
- Apr. 12: The number theory notes have been updated once again (thanks to
Sam and Cedric for pointing out the mistakes on the code on egcd). Also, to
help out with the final, I have uploaded an old set of notes that I have
created on basic graph theory (bfs, dfs, shortest path, minimum spanning
tree). It should have most topics that Chris covered.
- Apr. 10: The final exam is now available.
- Apr. 1: Get your final exam problems e-mailed to Chris by Wednesday, April 8, NO LATER!
