never heard of that |

but it looks like fun |

hey guys, can I tell you an interesting problem? |
14:54 |
|
pdurbin |
no |
14:55 |
|
aditsu |
oh ok -_- |

(don't spoil the solution if you know it already) |

there are 100 prisoners, and a room with 100 boxes |
14:56 |
|
aditsu |
each box has a photo of one of the prisoners |
14:56 |
|
aditsu |
each prisoner is called into that room, one by one, and is allowed to open up to 50 boxes, then he needs to close them again |
14:57 |
|
aditsu |
if all prisoners find their own photo, they are released |
14:57 |
|
aditsu |
before the thing starts, they can discuss a strategy together |
14:57 |
|
aditsu |
but once they get into the room, there is no more communication |
14:58 |
|
aditsu |
what is a strategy that will give them better odds? |
15:00 |
|
aditsu |
you can pm me proposed solutions |
15:00 |
|
aditsu |
or ask questions in here |
15:04 |
|
pdurbin |
wow |

aditsu: how about we start writing these down somwhere under https://github.com/sourcefu ? |
15:06 |
|
aditsu |
pdurbin: you expect there will be more of these? :p or were other problems discussed before? |
15:07 |
|
aditsu |
anyway, feel free to write it anywhere |
15:08 |
|
aditsu |
you can find this problem in various places on the internet, but if you read the solution you will miss all the fun in discovering it :p |

I started a katas folder at https://github.com/crimsonfu/code but we could have our own |
15:22 |
|
pdurbin |
oh. we talked about this already: http://irclog.greptilian.com/sourcefu/2013-03-27#i_4565 |
15:24 |
|
aditsu |
um.. this is not really a kata, it's a math problem rather than a programming problem... but you can write some code to do simulations and calculate various things |
15:24 |
|
pdurbin |
sure sure |
15:24 |
|
pdurbin |
thought experiment |

speaking of that page of logs, I did use groovy in gcj :) |
