UVa 10706. Number Sequence with F#

This post describes an algorithm to solve UVa 10706: Number Sequence problem from UVa OJ. Before outlining the algorithm, we first give an overview of this problem in the next section. Interpretation This

UVa 136. Ugly Numbers

This blog-post is about  UVa 136: Ugly Number, a trivial, but interesting UVa problem. The crux involves computing 1500th Ugly number, where a Ugly number is defined as a number whose  prime factors

UVa 371. Ackermann Function

The underlying concepts of UVa 371: Ackermann Functions  have been discussed in great details in our post of Collatz problem. In this post, we simply outlines an ad-hoc algorithm as a solution to

UVa 10664. Luggage

The UVa 10664: Luggage is a typical example of the problems that can be solved using dynamic programming (DP) technique. In fact, after further analysis, this problem can be realized as a special
