Okay, I think I have finally devised an algorithm for solving assignment (which is not a fast guess algorithm by the way). I just thought using a brute force guessing algorithm would be make this assignment too easy. Besides, I love math, so I decided why not try to create an actual algorithm to solving the problem. It took me a huge amount of time experimenting with numbers. I'm not actually sure if it is any faster than just guessing numbers, but it sure was fun to figure out how to do it. I'm just trying to figure out how to optimize my algorithm even further. I would love to post my algorithm here, but then you guys don't get to indulge yourself within the awesomeness of trying to figure it out yourself.
I really love this assignment. This is the first assignment that was fun, challenging and not tedious at the same time. Squeal assignment was fun too, but it became more of a chore after a while when it came to fixing the code. This assignment is more thinking and less coding, which is the type of assignments I enjoy doing.
Keep these awesome assignments coming Dan.
