While we believe that parts of the IOI syllabus have been included in this book, which should give you a respectable base for future IOIs - we are well aware that not IOI books require more problem solving skills and creativity that we cannot teach via this book. So, keep practicing! --- ## Specific to the Teachers/Coaches This book is based on Steven's CS3232 - 'Competitive Programming' course in the School of Computing, National University of Singapore. It is contributed to its teaching teams using the following lesson plan (see Table 2). The PDF slides (only the public versions) can be found in the companion website of this book. This lesson plan contains the various exercises in this book as seen in Appendix A. Fellow teachers/coaches are free to modify the lesson plan to suit your students' needs. | Wk | Topic | In This Book | |----|---------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------| | 01 | Introduction | Chapter 1 | | 02 | Data Structures & Libraries | Chapter 2 | | 03 | Combinatorial Search, Divide & Conquer, Greedy | Section 3.2.4 | | 04 | Dynamic Programming (1: Basic Ideas) | Section 3.2.3 | | 05 | Graphs (1: DFS/BFS) | Chapter 4 | | 06 | Graphs (2: Shortest Paths, Dijkstra) | Section 4.4.5 - 4.17.2 | | 07 | Mid semester break contact | | | 08 | Dynamic Programming (2: More Techniques) | Section 6.3.4 | | 09 | Graphs (3: Max Flow; Bipartite Graph) | Section 6.4.3, 4.7.4 | | 10 | Mathematics (Overview) | Chapter 5 | | 11 | String Processing (Basics, Suffix Array) | Chapter 6 | | 12 | Computational Geometry (Libraries) | Chapter 7 | | | Final exam content | All, including Chapter 8 | **Table 2:** Lesson Plan --- ## To All Readers Due to the diversity of this content, this book is not meant to be read once, but several times. There are exercises that can be skipped at first if the content is too intense at that point of time, but the reader is encouraged to come back and revisit numerous sections when the concepts are more settled. While we strive to present the concepts in this book in a clear, intuitive manner, there are twists we cannot always predict. Make sure to attempt them alone. We believe that this book should lead the aspiring student towards the logical standards as IPC will lead them to the appropriate programming problems. This book is intended for proficient personnel in the field before facing more challenges after mastering this book. But before you assume anything, please check this book's table of contents to see what we mean by "basic". ``` #################### File:

sequence of chapters for a short introductory course. --- Depending on the length of the instruction period, the background of students, and your interests, you may select subsets of chapters to teach in various sequential orderings. For example, if you would like to give only a short introduction to students on data mining, you may follow the suggested sequence in Figure P.1. Notice that depending on the need, you can also omit some sections or subsections in a chapter if desired. Depending on the length of the course and its technical scope, you may choose to selectively add more chapters to this preliminary sequence. For example, instructors who are more interested in advanced classification methods may first add "Chapter 9. Classification: Advanced Methods"; those more interested in pattern mining may choose to include "Chapter 7. Advanced Pattern Mining"; whereas those interested in OLAP and data cube technology may like to add "Chapter 4. Data Warehousing and Online Analytical Processing" and "Chapter 5. Data Cube Technology." Alternatively, you may choose to teach the whole book in a two-course sequence that covers all of the chapters in the book, plus, where time permits, some advanced topics such as graph and network mining. Material for such advanced topics may be selected from the companion chapters available from the book's web site, accompanied with a set of selected research papers. Individual chapters in this book can also be used for tutorials or for special topics in related courses, such as machine learning, pattern recognition, data warehousing, and intelligent data analysis. Each chapter ends with a set of exercises, suitable as assigned homework.

Introduction to Data Mining Data mining involves discovering patterns in large data sets. It utilizes techniques from machine learning, statistics, and database systems. ### 2. Data Preprocessing Data preprocessing is vital for effective data mining. Key steps include: - **Data Cleaning**: Removing noise and inconsistencies. - **Data Integration**: Combining data from different sources. - **Data Transformation**: Converting data into suitable formats. ### 3. Data Warehousing and OLAP Data warehouses store integrated data from multiple sources to enable analytical querying. OLAP allows for multi-dimensional data analysis. ### 4. Data Mining Techniques #### A. Classification Classification is used to categorize data points into predefined classes. Common algorithms include decision trees, random forests, and support vector machines. #### B. Clustering Clustering involves grouping data points based on similarity. Key algorithms include k-means and hierarchical clustering. #### C. Association Rule Learning This technique identifies interesting relationships between variables in large databases (e.g., market basket analysis). ### 5. Evaluation of Data Mining Evaluating the effectiveness of data mining can be done through: - **Accuracy metrics**: Precision, recall, and F1 score. - **Visualizations**: ROC curves and confusion matrices. --- ## References - Han, J., Kamber, M., & Pei, J.

Depending on the length of the instruction period, the background of students, and your interests, you may select subsets of chapters to teach in various sequential orderings. For example, if you would like to give only a short introduction to students on data mining, you may follow the suggested sequence in Figure P.1. Notice that depending on the need, you can also omit some sections or subsections in a chapter if desired. Depending on the length of the course and its technical scope, you may choose to selectively add more chapters to this preliminary sequence. For example, instructors who are more interested in advanced classification methods may first add "Chapter 9: Classification: Advanced Methods;" those more interested in pattern mining may choose to include "Chapter 7: Advanced Pattern Mining"; whereas those interested in OLAP and data cube technology may like to add "Chapter 4: Data Warehousing and Online Analytical Processing" and "Chapter 5: Data Cube Technology." Alternatively, you may choose to teach the whole book in a two-course sequence that covers all of the chapters in the book, plus, where time permits, some advanced topics such as graph and network mining. Material for such advanced topics may be selected from the companion chapters available from the book's web site, accompanied with a set of selected research papers. Individual chapters in this book can also be used for tutorials or for special topics in related courses, such as machine learning, pattern recognition, data warehousing, and intelligent data analysis. Each chapter ends with a set of exercises, suitable as assigned homework. The exercises are either short questions that test basic mastery of the material covered, longer questions that require analytical thinking, or implementation projects. Some exercises can also be used as research discussion topics. The bibliographic notes at the end of each chapter can be used to aid in the research literature related to this topic and methods presented, in-depth treatment of related topics, and possible extensions. ## To the Student We hope that this textbook will spark your interest in the ever fast-evolving field of data mining.

Given two objects represented by the tuples (22, 1, 42, 10) and (20, 0, 36, 8): (a) Compute the Euclidean distance between the two objects. (b) Compute the Manhattan distance between the two objects. (c) Compute the Minkowski distance between the two objects, using \( q = 3 \). (d) Compute the supremum distance between the two objects. ## 2.7 The median is one of the most important holistic measures in data analysis. Propose several methods for median approximation. Analyze their respective complexity under different parameter settings and decide to what extent the real value can be approximated. Moreover, suggest a heuristic strategy to balance between accuracy and complexity and then apply it to all methods you have given. ## 2.8 It is important to define or select similarity measures in data analysis. However, there is no commonly accepted subjective similarity measure. Results can vary depending on the similarity measures used. Nonetheless, seemingly different similarity measures may be equivalent after some transformation. Suppose we have the following 2-D data set: | A1 | A2 | |-----|-----| | x1 | 1.5 | 1.7 | | x2 | 2.2 | 1.9 | | x3 | 1.6 | 1.8 | | x4 | 1.2 | 1.5 | | x5 | 1.5 | 1.0 | (a) Consider the data as 2-D data points. Given a new data point, \( x = (1.4, 1.6) \) as a query, rank the database points based on similarity with the query using Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, supremum distance, and cosine similarity. (b) Normalize the data set to make the norm of each data point equal to 1. Use Euclidean distance on the transformed data to rank the data points. ## 2.7 Bibliographic Notes Methods for descriptive data summarization have been studied in the statistics literature long before the onset of computers.

(a) Do you know how to store a string in your favorite programming language? (b) How to read a given text input line by line? (c) How to concatenate (combine) two strings into a larger one? (d) How to check if a string starts with `......` to stop reading input? I love CS2333 Competitive Programming. I also love Algorithms! > **Note:** You must stop after reading this line as it starts with 7 dots. After the first input block, there will be looooooooccccccooooonnng line... 2. Suppose we have the input string T. We want to check if another string P can be found in T. Report all the indexes where P appears in T or report -1 if P cannot be found in T. For example, if T = "I love CS2333 Competitive Programming", and P = "love", the output should only be the index(es) where P occurs. If P is not considered default, then the character `1` and index `2` is part of the output. If P = "box", then the output is [-1]. (a) How to find the first occurrence of a substring in a string? (b) Do we need to implement a string matching algorithm (like Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) algorithm discussed in Section 6.4), or can we use just Library functions? 3. Suppose we want to do some simple analysis of the characters in T and also to transform each character into 1 into lowercase. The required analysis asks: How many digits, vowels, and arrays of characters (lower/upper) wherever the index starts from 0 to `n` (where n is the length of the array). (a) Next, we want to break this into strings into tokens (substrings) and into that form an array of individual tokens. For this task, the boundaries of these tokens are spaces and punctuations (since tokens must work). For example, the string `I love CS2333, 'i', 'love', 'programming'`. (b) How to store an array of strings? 4. Next, we want to start this over and string lexicographically. (a) How to read a string over the internet if we do not know its length in advance?

String processing is common in the research field of bioinformatics. However, as the strings that transcoders deal with can usually be extremely large, efficient data structures and algorithms are necessary. Some of these problems are presented as contest problems in ICPC. By mastering the content of this chapter, ICPC contestants will have a better chance at tackling these string processing problems. String processing tasks also appear in IOI, but usually they do not require variables, data structures, or may be simply string manipulations. Additionally, the input and output format tends to be less well-defined than in ICPC problems. IOI tasks that require string processing are usually still solvable using the problem solving paradigms mentioned in Chapter 1. Section 6.1 is drafting for students to solve string problems. Section 6.2 outlines basic string processing skills; however, we believe that it may be advantageous for IOI contestants to learn some of the more advanced material outside of their syllabuses. ## 6.2 Basic String Processing Skills We begin this chapter by listing several basic string processing skills that every competitive programmer must know. In this section, we provide a series of mini tasks that you should solve one after another without asking. You can use your favorite programming language (C, C++, or Java). Try your best to come up with the subtask, unless default implementations do it for you. ### 1. Given a string that only consists of lowercase alphanumeric characters [a-z,0-9], space, and period ('.'), write a program to read the text file from the user — encounter a long string first. When two lines are combined, give the output that the last word of the previous line is separated from the first of the current line. There can be up to 30 of any of your implementations can even give your implementation. Also read and store the last spaces at the end of each line. Note: The sample input file `file.txt` is shown on the next page: After question 1(a) and before task 2. --- (Original document might contain additional tasks or examples; ensure all tasks are addressed as needed.) #################### File: A%20First%20Encounter%20with%20Machine%20Learning%20-%20Max%20Welling%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 6 Context:

They are programming and computer science problems involving string that require more than basic programming skills and perhaps some basic string processing skills discussed in Section 6.2 earlier. Here, we give a list of such Ad Hoc string processing problems with hints. These programming exercises have been further divided into sub-objects. ### Programming Exercises related to Ad Hoc String Processing: - **Cipher/Encode/Encrypt/Decode/Decrypt** - It is everyone’s wish that their private digital communications are secure. That is, their messages (or any) messages can only be read by the intended recipients. Many algorithms have been invented for this purpose, and some of them are very complicated; it is hard to contain it problems. This is interesting to learn a bit about Computer Security/Cryptography by solving similar problems. - **Frequency Count** - In this group of problems, the contestants are asked to count the frequency of a letter (say, base Direct Addressing Table) or a word (handle, the solution is the table using a balanced Binary Search Tree – the C++ STL map/Tree – or hash table). Some of the problems are related actually to Cryptography (the previous sub-category). - **Input Parsing** - This group of problems is best for I/O contestants as it enforces the input of I/O tasks to be formatted as simple as possible. However, there is no such restriction in IPC. Parsing problems range from simple forms that can be dealt with modified input regular, i.e. C/C++-style, to more complex problem involving using grammar's that requires extensive chaotic search or Java Parser class (Regular Expression). - **Output Formatting** - Another group of problems that is also not for I/O contestants. This time, the output is the problematic area. In an I/O problem, one might simply pass the output format as you might for the contestants. Practice your coding skills by solving these problems as you program for the contestants. - **String Comparison** - In this group of problems, the contestants are asked to compare strings with various criteria. This sub-category is similar to the string matching problems in the next section, but these problems may involve non-reciprocal functions. - **Ad Hoc** - These are other Ad Hoc string related problems that cannot be (or have not been) classified as one of the other sub categories above. --- *Note: It is important to understand that these programming problems focus on string processing but may require knowledge of other concepts such as the use of classes or recursive functions.* #################### File:

1.3 Data mining—searching for knowledge (interesting patterns) in data.](image_path_here) Data mining, appropriately named "knowledge mining from data," which is unfortunately somewhat long. However, the shorter term, **knowledge mining** may not reflect the emphasis on mining from large amounts of data. Nevertheless, mining is a vivid term characterizing the process that finds a small set of precious nuggets from a great deal of raw material (Figure 1.3). Thus, such a misnomer carrying both "data" and "mining" became a popular choice. In addition, many other terms have a similar meaning to data mining—for example, *knowledge mining from data*, *knowledge extraction*, *data/pattern analysis*, *data archaeology*, and *data dredging*. Many people treat data mining as a synonym for another popularly used term, **knowledge discovery from data**, or **KDD**, while others view data mining as merely an essential step in the process of knowledge discovery. The knowledge discovery process is shown in Figure 1.4 as an iterative sequence of the following steps: 1. **Data cleaning** (to remove noise and inconsistent data) 2. **Data integration** (where multiple data sources may be combined)¹ ¹ A popular trend in the information industry is to perform data cleaning and data integration as a preprocessing step, where the resulting data are stored in a data warehouse. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 29 Context: HAN05-pref-xxiii-xxx-97801238147912011/6/13:35Pagexxviii#6xxviiiPrefacebookorhandbook,shouldyoulaterdecidetoperformin-depthresearchintherelatedfieldsorpursueacareerindatamining.Whatdoyouneedtoknowtoreadthisbook?Youshouldhavesomeknowledgeoftheconceptsandterminologyassociatedwithstatistics,databasesystems,andmachinelearning.However,wedotrytoprovideenoughbackgroundofthebasics,sothatifyouarenotsofamiliarwiththesefieldsoryourmemoryisabitrusty,youwillnothavetroublefollowingthediscussionsinthebook.Youshouldhavesomeprogrammingexperience.Inparticular,youshouldbeabletoreadpseudocodeandunderstandsimpledatastructuressuchasmultidimensionalarrays.TotheProfessionalThisbookwasdesignedtocoverawiderangeoftopicsinthedataminingfield.Asaresult,itisanexcellenthandbookonthesubject.Becauseeachchapterisdesignedtobeasstandaloneaspossible,youcanfocusonthetopicsthatmostinterestyou.Thebookcanbeusedbyapplicationprogrammersandinformationservicemanagerswhowishtolearnaboutthekeyideasofdataminingontheirown.Thebookwouldalsobeusefulfortechnicaldataanalysisstaffinbanking,insurance,medicine,andretailingindustrieswhoareinterestedinapplyingdataminingsolutionstotheirbusinesses.Moreover,thebookmayserveasacomprehensivesurveyofthedataminingfield,whichmayalsobenefitresearcherswhowouldliketoadvancethestate-of-the-artindataminingandextendthescopeofdataminingapplications.Thetechniquesandalgorithmspresentedareofpracticalutility.Ratherthanselectingalgorithmsthatperformwellonsmall“toy”datasets,thealgorithmsdescribedinthebookaregearedforthediscoveryofpatternsandknowledgehiddeninlarge,realdatasets.Algorithmspresentedinthebookareillustratedinpseudocode.ThepseudocodeissimilartotheCprogramminglanguage,yetisdesignedsothatitshouldbeeasytofollowbyprogrammersunfamiliarwithCorC++.Ifyouwishtoimplementanyofthealgorithms,youshouldfindthetranslationofourpseudocodeintotheprogramminglanguageofyourchoicetobeafairlystraightforwardtask.BookWebSiteswithResourcesThebookhasawebsiteatwww.cs.uiuc.edu/∼hanj/bk3andanotherwithMorganKauf-mann #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 29 Context: HAN05-pref-xxiii-xxx-97801238147912011/6/13:35Pagexxviii#6xxviiiPrefacebookorhandbook,shouldyoulaterdecidetoperformin-depthresearchintherelatedfieldsorpursueacareerindatamining.Whatdoyouneedtoknowtoreadthisbook?Youshouldhavesomeknowledgeoftheconceptsandterminologyassociatedwithstatistics,databasesystems,andmachinelearning.However,wedotrytoprovideenoughbackgroundofthebasics,sothatifyouarenotsofamiliarwiththesefieldsoryourmemoryisabitrusty,youwillnothavetroublefollowingthediscussionsinthebook.Youshouldhavesomeprogrammingexperience.Inparticular,youshouldbeabletoreadpseudocodeandunderstandsimpledatastructuressuchasmultidimensionalarrays.TotheProfessionalThisbookwasdesignedtocoverawiderangeoftopicsinthedataminingfield.Asaresult,itisanexcellenthandbookonthesubject.Becauseeachchapterisdesignedtobeasstandaloneaspossible,youcanfocusonthetopicsthatmostinterestyou.Thebookcanbeusedbyapplicationprogrammersandinformationservicemanagerswhowishtolearnaboutthekeyideasofdataminingontheirown.Thebookwouldalsobeusefulfortechnicaldataanalysisstaffinbanking,insurance,medicine,andretailingindustrieswhoareinterestedinapplyingdataminingsolutionstotheirbusinesses.Moreover,thebookmayserveasacomprehensivesurveyofthedataminingfield,whichmayalsobenefitresearcherswhowouldliketoadvancethestate-of-the-artindataminingandextendthescopeofdataminingapplications.Thetechniquesandalgorithmspresentedareofpracticalutility.Ratherthanselectingalgorithmsthatperformwellonsmall“toy”datasets,thealgorithmsdescribedinthebookaregearedforthediscoveryofpatternsandknowledgehiddeninlarge,realdatasets.Algorithmspresentedinthebookareillustratedinpseudocode.ThepseudocodeissimilartotheCprogramminglanguage,yetisdesignedsothatitshouldbeeasytofollowbyprogrammersunfamiliarwithCorC++.Ifyouwishtoimplementanyofthealgorithms,youshouldfindthetranslationofourpseudocodeintotheprogramminglanguageofyourchoicetobeafairlystraightforwardtask.BookWebSiteswithResourcesThebookhasawebsiteatwww.cs.uiuc.edu/∼hanj/bk3andanotherwithMorganKauf-mann #################### File: Competitive%20Programming%2C%202nd%20Edition%20-%20Steven%20Halim%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 246 Context: # BIBLIOGRAPHY [1] TopCoder Inc.

1.3 Data mining—searching for knowledge (interesting patterns) in data.](image_url) Data mining, appropriately named "knowledge mining from data," which is unfortunately somewhat long. However, the shorter term, **knowledge mining**, may not reflect the emphasis on mining from large amounts of data. Nevertheless, mining is a vivid term characterizing the process that finds a small set of precious nuggets from a great deal of raw material (Figure 1.3). Thus, such a misnomer carrying both "data" and "mining" became a popular choice. In addition, many other terms have a similar meaning to data mining—for example, **knowledge mining from data**, **knowledge extraction**, **data/pattern analysis**, **data archaeology**, and **data dredging**. Many people treat data mining as a synonym for another popularly used term, **knowledge discovery from data**, or **KDD**, while others view data mining as merely an essential step in the process of knowledge discovery. The knowledge discovery process is shown in Figure 1.4 as an iterative sequence of the following steps: 1. **Data cleaning** (to remove noise and inconsistent data) 2. **Data integration** (where multiple data sources may be combined) > A popular trend in the information industry is to perform data cleaning and data integration as a preprocessing step, where the resulting data are stored in a data warehouse. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 633 Context:

In this chapter, we have introduced the world of competitive programming to you. However, you cannot say that you are a competitive programmer if you can only solve Ad Hoc problems in every programming contest. Therefore, we hope that you will enjoy the ride and continue reading and learning the other chapters of this book substantively. Once you have finished reading this book, re-read it one more time.

According to [USACO, 29], Ad Hoc problems are problems that cannot be classified anywhere else, where each problem description and its corresponding solution are "unique." Ad Hoc problems are always appear in a programming contest. Using a benchmark of total problems, the first problem should be the easiest problem in an ICPC. If the problem is easy, it will be possible for the first problem assigned to be trivial in a programming context. But there exists Ad Hoc problems that are complicated to solve but seem trivial at first. For example, in the 2001 and 2002 ICPC, the first problem (day 1, problem A) was trivial, but in 2003 and 2004, the first task for each competition day started as only subtask 1. If you are in an ICPC with no straightforward problems, you will end up with only 3–5 challenging tasks. We believe that you can solve most of these problems yourself using advanced data structures or algorithms that will be discussed in the later chapters. Many of these Ad Hoc problems are "simple" but can be somewhat "tricky." Now, try to solve problems from each category before reading the next section! ## The categories: 1. **(Super) Easy** - You should start these problems **AC** in under 7 minutes each! - If you are just starting competitive programming, we strongly recommend that you start your journey by solving some problems from this category. 2. **Game (Card)** - There are a few Ad Hoc problems involving game theory. The first game type is related to cards. Usually you will need to parse the string input as normal cards (suits such as ♠, ♥, ♦, ♣). For example, inputs might include `2H`, `7D`, and `3S` applying to the usual rules: - 2 ≤ A, 3 ≤ 2, 3 ≤ Q, A ≤ K - It may be a good idea to map these complicated strings to integer values. For example, consider mappings to: - `2 ⇒ 3, 3 ⇒ 1, DA ⇒ 10, CA ⇒ 11, C3 ⇒ 12, H3 ⇒ 14, SA ⇒ 5, H1 ⇒ 13` 3. **Game (Chess)** - Another popular games that students express in programming contest problems are chess games. Some forms of Ad Hoc (listed in this section) don’t contain chess rules. Before you begin, note how many ways you can put queens in \( S \times S \) chess board (listed in Chapter 3). 4. **Game (Other)** - Other cards and game games, there are many other popular problems discussed that build on the fundamental tie-in to programming contest problems. The To-Do, Road-Paper-Stones, Graph-Makers, BINGO, Bursting, and many others. Keeping the details of these simple, notes of all of the rules and their uses are given in the problem description to avoid classifying contestants who have played these games before. Remember, you can read but you will not do it for others. Once you have read this section, don’t forget to try these problems and indeed super easy, "In some other arrangements, A < Z." #################### File: Competitive%20Programming%2C%202nd%20Edition%20-%20Steven%20Halim%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 23 Context: Additionally, we have a few other rules of thumb that are useful in programming contests: - \( 2^{10} = 1,024 \quad \text{and} \quad 2^{20} = 1,048,576 \). - Max 32-bit signed integer: \( \text{int} = 2^{31} - 1 \) (or use up to 9 decimal digits). - Max 64-bit signed integer: \( \text{long} = 2^{63} - 1 \). - Use `unsigned` if slightly higher positive number is needed (e.g., \( 2^{32} - 1 \)). - If you need to store integers \( \geq 2^n \), you need to use the Big Integer technique (Section 5.3). 1. Program with nested loops of depth \( k \) returning as little as possible has \( O(n^k) \) complexity. - If your program is recursive with recursive calls per level and has \( O(n^k) \) complexity, the problem has roughly \( O(n^k) \) complexity. But this is an upper bound. The actual complexity depends on what actions come later and whether some pruning are possible. 2. There are \( n! \) permutations and \( 2^n \) subsets (or combinations) of \( n \) elements. 3. Dynamic Programming algorithms which fill in a 2D matrix in \( O(n) \) per cell is \( O(n^2) \). - More details in Section 3 later. 4. The best time complexity of a comparison-based sorting algorithm is \( O(n \log n) \). 5. Most of the time, \( O(n \log n) \) algorithms will be sufficient for most contest problems. 6. The largest input size for typical programming contests problems must be \( < 1M \); because beyond that, the time needed to read the input (the I/O routine) will be the bottleneck. ### Exercise 1.2.2 Please answer the following questions below using your current knowledge about classic algorithms and their complexities. After you have finished reading this task book once, it may be beneficial to revisit this exercise again. 1. There are n webpages (1 ≤ n ≤ 10M). Each webpage has a different page rank \( r \). You want to pick the top 10 pages with highest page ranks. Which method is more feasible? - (a) Load all n webpages' page rank to memory, sort (Section 2.1), and pick the top 10. - (b) Use priority queue data structure (heap) (Section 2.2). 2. Given a list of up to 100 integers. You need to frequently ask the value of sum \( S_j \), i.e. the sum of \( L[j] + L[j+1] + ... + L[j+k] \). Which data structure should you use? - (a) Simple Array (Section 2.2.1). - (b) Simple Array that is pre-processed with Dynamic Programming (Section 2.2.1 & 2.5). - (c) Balanced Binary Search Tree (Section 2.2.2). - (d) Hash Table (Section 2.2.2). - (e) Segment Tree (Section 2.3.3). - (f) Route Tree (Section 2.4.3). - (g) Fastest Structure (Section 6.6). - (h) Suffix Array (Section 6.6.4). 3. Given a set \( S \) of points randomly scattered on 2D plane, \( N \leq 1000 \). Find two points \( S \) that has the greatest Euclidean distance. Is \( O(N^2) \) complete search algorithm that try all pairs possible? - (a) Yes, such complete search is possible. - (b) No, we must find another way. #################### File: Competitive%20Programming%2C%202nd%20Edition%20-%20Steven%20Halim%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 54 Context: ``` ## 2.4 Chapter Notes Basic data structures mentioned in Section 2.2 can be found in almost every data structure and algorithm textbook. References to these libraries are available online at `www.openaig.com` and `java.com/javaref/docs/api`. Note that although these reference websites are usually given in programming contexts, we suggest that you try to master the syntax of the most commonly used libraries at the same time during the actual context! An exception to this practice is the *algorithm* of Balkan (a bitmap). This unusual data structure is important for certain types of data and for the efficiency of its algorithm. It is crucial for computer programmers as it plays a significant role in context. This data structure can be referenced to look a book: *Hacker's Delight* [1] and its details can be manipulated. External references for data structures mentioned in Section 2.2 are as follows: For Graph data structures, see [2] and Chapter 22 of [3]. For Union-Find data structures, see [4]. For Suffix Tree/Trie/Array in Section 6, see [5]. For Network Tree, see [6]. With more experience and by looking at sample codes, you will master more tricks in using these data structures. There are also data structures discussed in this book. The tri-based data structures (Suffix Tree/Trie/Array) in Section 6. Yet, there are still many other data structures that this book does not cover. If you want to dive into programming more, please study the mentioned data structures beyond what you read in this book. For example, AVL Tree, Red-Black Tree, or Splice Tree are useful for certain problem types where you need to implement and execute them efficiently [7]. Interval Tree which is similar to Segment Tree, (you have to find the approx space). Notice that some of the data structures shown in this book have the spirit of Divide and Conquer (discussed in Section 23). There are **117 UIs** (4 + 7 others) programming exercises discussed in this chapter. (Only 48 in the first edition, a 1985 version). There are **26 pages** in this chapter. (Only 12 in the first edition, a 507th version). ## Profile of Data Structure Inventors **Robert R. Floyd** (1939) has been Professor (emeritus) of Informatics at the Technical University of Munich. He invented the Red-Black (RB) Tree which is typically used in C++ STL, and Java etc. **Eugene A. Godel** (1906-1989) is a Soviet mathematician and computer scientist, along with Mikhail Nikiforovich Landa, he invented the AVL Tree in 1962. **Eymaelovich Landis** (1921-1997) was a Soviet mathematician. The name AVL Tree is attributed to introduce easy to traverse. Adede-Kwaki and Landis himself. **Peter M. Fuwick** is a Honorary Associate Professor in the University of Auckland. He invented Binary Search Tree in his original proposal for *computer based information processing* [8]. This has advanced the field in programming constructs material for efficient yet easy to implement data structure by his inclusion in the 101 syllabus [10]. ``` #################### File:

UVA 100 - Soduko (requires Breadth First technique) 2. UVA 104 - Marbles (involves Bond Cell technique) 3. UVA 106 - Maximum Sum (similar to previous example) 4. UVA 109 - Robot Sort (similar to another problem) 5. UVA 110 - Save the Children (earlier results used) 6. UVA 112 - Snake Hideout (easier than task with “easy” problem) 7.

UVA 2120 - List Format Sort (Datalet) Although the problems listed in this section constitutes 77% of the problems listed in this chapter, we have to make a remark that most central problems in ACM ICP (and IOI) usually do not focus heavily on direct string operations for the “synonym” problem that matches users (constructs) should be able to resolve in the text for examples. We will explore string matching problems (Section 6.4) closely while addressing these solutions of dynamic programming (DP) (Section 6.5) that relate to processing problems involving string processing problems where we focus on the ways of creating efficient structures like Suffix Tree, Suffix Array and more. We discuss these data structures and several specialized algorithms using these data structures in Section 6.6. #################### File: BIOS%20Disassembly%20Ninjutsu%20Uncovered%201st%20Edition%20-%20Darmawan%20Salihun%20%28PDF%29%20BIOS_Disassembly_Ninjutsu_Uncovered.pdf Page: 1 Context: # BIOS ## DISASSEMBLY NINJUTSU UNCOVERED **Author:** Darmanwan Salhudin --- ## Table of Contents 1.

However, nothing prevents any people who is curious about BIOS technology to read this book and get benefit from it. Some prerequisite knowledge is needed to fully understand this book. It is not mandatory, but it will be very difficult to grasp some of the concepts without it. The most important knowledge is the understanding of x86 assembly language. Explanation of the disassembled code resulting from the BIOS binary and also the sample BIOS patches are presented in x86 assembly language. They are scattered throughout the book. Thus, it’s vital to know x86 assembly language, even with very modest familiarity. It’s also assumed that the reader have some familiarity with C programming language. The chapter that dwell on expansion ROM development along with the introductory chapter in BIOS related software development uses C language heavily for the example code. C is also used heavily in the section that covers IDA Pro scripts and plugin development. IDA Pro scripts have many similarities with C programming language. Familiarity with Windows Application Programming Interface (Win32API) is not a requirement, but is very useful to grasp the concept in the Optional section of chapter 3 that covers IDA Pro plugin development. THE ORGANIZATION The first part of the book lays the foundation knowledge to do BIOS reverse engineering and Expansion ROM development. In this part, the reader is introduced with: a. Various bus protocols in use nowadays within the x86 platform, i.e. PCI, HyperTransport and PCI-Express. The focus is toward the relationship between BIOS code execution and the implementation of protocols. b. Reverse engineering tools and techniques needed to carry out the tasks in later chapter, mostly introduction to IDA Pro disassembler along with its advanced techniques. c. Crash course on advanced compiler tricks needed to develop firmware. The emphasis is in using GNU C compiler to develop a firmware framework. The second part of this book reveals the details of motherboard BIOS reverse engineering and modification. This includes indepth coverage of BIOS file structure, algorithms used within the BIOS, explanation of various BIOS specific tools from its corresponding vendor and explanation of tricks to perform BIOS modification. The third part of the book deals with the development of PCI expansion ROM. In this part, PCI Expansion ROM structure is explained thoroughly. Then, a systematic PCI expansion ROM development with GNU tools is presented. The fourth part of the book deals heavily with the security concerns within the BIOS. This part is biased toward possible implementation of rootkits within the BIOS and possible exploitation scenario that might be used by an attacker by exploiting the BIOS flaw. Computer security experts will find a lot of important information in this part. This part is the central theme in this book. It’s presented to improve the awareness against malicious code that can be injected into BIOS. The fifth part of the book deals with the application of BIOS technology outside of its traditional space, i.e. the PC. In this chapter, the reader is presented with various application of the BIOS technology in the emerging embedded x86 platform. In the end of this part, further application of the technology presented in this book is explained briefly. Some explanation regarding the OpenBIOS and Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI) is also presented.

Compute the **Euclidean distance** between the two objects. 2. Compute the **Manhattan distance** between the two objects. 3. Compute the **Minkowski distance** between the two objects, using \( q = 3 \). 4. Compute the **supremum distance** between the two objects. ### 2.7 The median is one of the most important holistic measures in data analysis. Propose several methods for median approximation. Analyze their respective complexity under different parameter settings and decide to what extent the real value can be approximated. Moreover, suggest a heuristic strategy to balance between accuracy and complexity and then apply it to all methods you have given. ### 2.8 It is important to define or select similarity measures in data analysis. However, there is no commonly accepted subjective similarity measure. Results can vary depending on the similarity measures used. Nonetheless, seemingly different similarity measures may be equivalent after some transformation. Suppose we have the following 2-D data set: | A₁ | A₂ | |------|------| | x₁ | 1.5 | 1.7 | | x₂ | 2.2 | 1.9 | | x₃ | 1.6 | 1.8 | | x₄ | 1.2 | 1.5 | | x₅ | 1.5 | 1.0 | 1. Consider the data as 2-D data points. Given a new data point, \( x = (1.4, 1.6) \) as a query, rank the database points based on similarity with the query using Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, supremum distance, and cosine similarity. 2. Normalize the data set to make the norm of each data point equal to 1. Use Euclidean distance on the transformed data to rank the data points. ### 2.7 Bibliographic Notes Methods for descriptive data summarization have been studied in the statistics literature long before the onset of computers. Good summaries of statistical descriptive data mining methods include Freedman, Pisani, and Purves [FP97] and Devore [Dev95]. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 43 Context: # Chapter 1 Introduction ![Figure 1.3 Data mining—searching for knowledge (interesting patterns) in data.](#) appropriately named "knowledge mining from data," which is unfortunately somewhat long. However, the shorter term, **knowledge mining** may not reflect the emphasis on mining from large amounts of data. Nevertheless, mining is a vivid term characterizing the process that finds a small set of precious nuggets from a great deal of raw material (Figure 1.3). Thus, such a misnomer carrying both "data" and "mining" became a popular choice. In addition, many other terms have a similar meaning to data mining—for example, **knowledge mining from data, knowledge extraction, data/pattern analysis, data archaeology,** and **data dredging.** Many people treat data mining as a synonym for another popularly used term, **knowledge discovery from data**, or **KDD**, while others view data mining as merely an essential step in the process of knowledge discovery. The knowledge discovery process is shown in Figure 1.4 as an iterative sequence of the following steps: 1. Data cleaning (to remove noise and inconsistent data) 2. Data integration (where multiple data sources may be combined)³ ³A popular trend in the information industry is to perform data cleaning and data integration as a preprocessing step, where the resulting data are stored in a data warehouse. #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page:

In here, we have to nominate a chapter in this book that contestants have to really master, and we will discuss this more. The main source of the "Complete Search" material in this chapter is the USACO training gateway [2]. We adopt the term "Complete Search" rather than "Brute Force" as we believe that some "Complete Search" solutions can be cleaner and more refined, although it is complete. We refer to the term "Complete Search" as a self-referential term. We will discuss more advanced search techniques later in Section 3.8, A* Search, Depth Limited Search (DLS), Iterative Deepening (ID), and Iterative Deepening A* (IDA*). Divided and Conquer paradigms is usually stated in the form of its popular algorithm: binary search and its variants, merge/sort (face sort), and data structures: binary tree, heap, segment tree, etc. We will see more about this later in Computational Geometry (Section 7.4). Also, Greedy and Dynamic Programming (DP) techniques/executions are always included in popular algorithm textbooks, see Introduction to Algorithms [3], Algorithm Design [2], Algorithm [4]. However, to keep pace with the growing difficulties and clarity of these techniques, especially the DP techniques, we include more references from Introductory Textbooks and general programming contests in this book. We will revisit DP again for one occasion: First WishList’s DP algorithm (Section 6.7), PA (implied) DAG (Section 3.17), DP-String (Section 6.5), and more Advanced DPs (Section 5.4). However, for some real-life problems, especially those that are classified as NP-Complete [3], many of the approaches discussed so far will not work. For example, a Knapsack Problem with base O(N^5) complexity to know if sub bg P’s BG meets O(N^2 * K) complexity for b too slow if V is much larger than K. For such problems, people use heuristics or local search. Tabu Search [14], 4-Sourcer Algorithm, Ants Colony Optimization, Beam Search, etc. These are 19 UVA (4 + 15 other) programming exercises discussed in this chapter. (Only 10 in the first edition, a 75% increase.) There are 32 pages in this chapter. (Also 32 in the first edition, but some have been restructured to Chapter 4 and 8.) #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 64 Context: HAN08-ch01-001-038-97801238147912011/6/13:12Page27#271.6WhichKindsofApplicationsAreTargeted?27themajortopicsinacollectionofdocumentsand,foreachdocumentinthecollection,themajortopicsinvolved.IncreasinglylargeamountsoftextandmultimediadatahavebeenaccumulatedandmadeavailableonlineduetothefastgrowthoftheWebandapplicationssuchasdig-itallibraries,digitalgovernments,andhealthcareinformationsystems.Theireffectivesearchandanalysishaveraisedmanychallengingissuesindatamining.Therefore,textminingandmultimediadatamining,integratedwithinformationretrievalmethods,havebecomeincreasinglyimportant.1.6WhichKindsofApplicationsAreTargeted?Wheretherearedata,therearedataminingapplicationsAsahighlyapplication-drivendiscipline,datamininghasseengreatsuccessesinmanyapplications.Itisimpossibletoenumerateallapplicationswheredataminingplaysacriticalrole.Presentationsofdatamininginknowledge-intensiveapplicationdomains,suchasbioinformaticsandsoftwareengineering,requiremorein-depthtreatmentandarebeyondthescopeofthisbook.Todemonstratetheimportanceofapplicationsasamajordimensionindataminingresearchanddevelopment,webrieflydiscusstwohighlysuccessfulandpopularapplicationexamplesofdatamining:businessintelligenceandsearchengines.1.6.1BusinessIntelligenceItiscriticalforbusinessestoacquireabetterunderstandingofthecommercialcontextoftheirorganization,suchastheircustomers,themarket,supplyandresources,andcompetitors.Businessintelligence(BI)technologiesprovidehistorical,current,andpredictiveviewsofbusinessoperations.Examplesincludereporting,onlineanalyticalprocessing,businessperformancemanagement,competitiveintelligence,benchmark-ing,andpredictiveanalytics.“Howimportantisbusinessintelligence?”Withoutdatamining,manybusinessesmaynotbeabletoperformeffectivemarketanalysis,comparecustomerfeedbackonsimi-larproducts,discoverthestrengthsandweaknessesoftheircompetitors,retainhighlyvaluablecustomers,andmakesmartbusinessdecisions.Clearly,dataminingisthecoreofbusinessintelligence.Onlineanalyticalprocess-ingtoolsinbusiness #################### File: Competitive%20Programming%2C%202nd%20Edition%20-%20Steven%20Halim%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 139 Context: # 5.2 AD HOC MATHEMATICS PROBLEMS © Steven & Felix ## Mathematical Simulations (Bruce Fuerst) 1.

Every nth person is to be executed. Only the last remaining person will be saved. This problem is often referred to as the "Josephus" problem. The smaller versions of this problem can be solved with plain brute force. The larger ones require better solutions. - **Problems related to Palindrome or Anagram** These are also classic problems. Palindrome is a word (or eventually a sequence) that can be read the same way in either direction. The common strategy to check if a word is a palindrome is to loop from the first character to the middle and check if the first matches the last, the second matches the second last, and so on. Example: `A man, a plan, a canal: Panama` is a palindrome. Anagram is a rearrangement of letters of a word (or phrase) to get another word (or phrase) using all of the original letters. The common strategy to think of two words as anagrams is to sort the letters of the words and compare the sorted letters. Example word: `tap`, world created: `pat`. After sorting, `tap` -> `apt` and `pat` -> `apt`, so they are anagrams. - **Interesting Real Life Problems** This is one of the most interesting categories of problems in UVA online judge. We believe that the real life problems are more interesting for those who are new to Computer Science. We feel that more programs to solve real problems is an extra motivator. Who knows, you may also learn some new interesting knowledge from the problem description! - **Ad Hoc problems involving Time** Date, time, calendar, etc. All these are also real life problems. As said earlier, people usually get extra motivational when dealing with real life problems. Some of these problems will be taste for you, especially if you have mastered the Java GeorginaCalendar class as it has lots of library functions to deal with time. - **Just Ad Hoc** Even after efforts to establish the Ad Hoc problems, there are still many others that are also problems involving the specific sub-category. The problems listed in this sub-category are ad hoc problems. The solution for such problems is to simply follow/understand the problem description carefully. - **Ad Hoc problems in other chapters** There are many other Ad Hoc problems which spread to other chapters, especially because they require more knowledge on top of basic programming skills. - **Ad Hoc problems involving the usage of basic linear data structures, especially arrays** are listed in Section 2.1. - **Ad Hoc problems involving mathematical computations** are listed in Section 5.2. - **Ad Hoc problems involving processing of strings** are listed in Section 6.3. - **Ad Hoc problems involving basic geometry skills** are listed in Section 7.2. Types of Ad Hoc problems can number of programming problems, you will encounter some patterns. From C/C++ programming, these patterns are: limits to be blocked (arrays, multi, string, etc.), how to define and limit array, how to list (etc.) and how to filter (list, map, and sort). Also, Python has defined MLOP (e.g. for (x in C), for (x in (1..n), etc.), etc.), how to define and sort. A specific programming task in C/C++ can be listed in a basic example, if he decided that he wants to solve another problem, he just need to open a new `.c` or `.cpp` file and type `#include `.

Chapter 1 PC BIOS Technology PREVIEW This chapter is devoted to explaining the parts of a PC that make up the term basic input/output system (BIOS). These are not only motherboard BIOS, which most readers might already be accustomed to, but also expansion read-only memories (ROMs). The BIOS is one of the key parts of a PC. BIOS provides the necessary execution environment for the operating system. The approach that I take to explain this theme follows the logic of the execution of BIOS subsystems inside the PC. It is one of the fastest ways to gain a systematic understanding of BIOS technology. In this journey, you will encounter answers to common questions: Why is it there? Why does it have to be accomplished that way? The discussion starts with the most important BIOS, motherboard BIOS. On top of that, this chapter explains contemporary bus protocol technology, i.e., PCI Express, HyperTransport, and peripheral component interconnect (PCI). A profound knowledge of bus protocol technology is needed to be able to understand most contemporary BIOS code. 1.1. Motherboard BIOS Motherboard BIOS is the most widely known BIOS from all kinds of BIOS. This term refers to the machine code that resides in a dedicated ROM chip on the motherboard. Today, most of these ROM chips are the members of flash-ROM family. This name refers to a ROM chip programmed1 electrically in a short interval, i.e., the programming takes only a couple of seconds. There is a common misconception between the BIOS chip and the complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chip. The former is the chip that's used to store the BIOS code, i.e., the machine code that will be executed when the processor executes the BIOS, and the latter is the chip that's used to store the BIOS parameters, i.e., the parameters that someone sets when entering the BIOS, such as the computer date and the RAM timing. Actually, CMOS chip is a misleading name. It is true that the chip is built upon CMOS technology. However, the purpose of the chip is to store BIOS information with the help of a dedicated battery. In that respect, it should’ve been called non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM) chip in order to represent the nature and purpose of the chip. Nonetheless, the CMOS chip term is used widely among PC users and hardware vendors. 1 Programmed in this context means being erased or written into. 1 #################### File: BIOS%20Disassembly%20Ninjutsu%20Uncovered%201st%20Edition%20-%20Darmawan%20Salihun%20%28PDF%29%20BIOS_Disassembly_Ninjutsu_Uncovered.pdf Page: 9 Context: Part I The Basics Chapter 1 PC BIOS Technology PREVIEW This chapter is devoted to explaining the parts of a PC that make up the term basic input/output system (BIOS).

Nonetheless, the CMOS chip term is used widely among PC users and hardware vendors. 1 Programmed in this context means being erased or written into. 1 #################### File: Data%20Mining%20Concepts%20and%20Techniques%20-%20Jiawei%20Han%2C%20Micheline%20Kamber%2C%20Jian%20Pei%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 674 Context: HAN21-bib-633-672-97801238147912011/6/13:27Page637#5Bibliography637[BGRS99]K.S.Beyer,J.Goldstein,R.Ramakrishnan,andU.Shaft.Whenis“nearestneigh-bor”meaningful?InProc.1999Int.Conf.DatabaseTheory(ICDT’99),pp.217–235,Jerusalem,Israel,Jan.1999.[BGV92]B.Boser,I.Guyon,andV.N.Vapnik.Atrainingalgorithmforoptimalmarginclassifiers.InProc.FifthAnnualWorkshoponComputationalLearningTheory,pp.144–152,ACMPress,SanMateo,CA,1992.[Bis95]C.M.Bishop.NeuralNetworksforPatternRecognition.OxfordUniversityPress,1995.[Bis06]C.M.Bishop.PatternRecognitionandMachineLearning.NewYork:Springer,2006.[BJR08]G.E.P.Box,G.M.Jenkins,andG.C.Reinsel.TimeSeriesAnalysis:ForecastingandControl(4thed.).Prentice-Hall,2008.[BKNS00]M.M.Breunig,H.-P.Kriegel,R.Ng,andJ.Sander.LOF:Identifyingdensity-basedlocaloutliers.InProc.2000ACM-SIGMODInt.Conf.ManagementofData(SIGMOD’00),pp.93–104,Dallas,TX,May2000.[BL99]M.J.A.BerryandG.Linoff.MasteringDataMining:TheArtandScienceofCustomerRelationshipManagement.JohnWiley&Sons,1999.[BL04]M.J.A.BerryandG.S.Linoff.DataMiningTechniques:ForMarketing,Sales,andCustomerRelationshipManagement.JohnWiley&Sons,2004.[BL09]D.BleiandJ.Lafferty.Topicmodels.InA.SrivastavaandM.Sahami(eds.),TextMining:TheoryandApplications,TaylorandFrancis,2009.[BLC+03]D.Barbar´a,Y.Li,J.Couto,J.-L.Lin,andS.Jajodia.Bootstrappingadataminingintru-siondetectionsystem.InProc.2003ACMSymp.onAppliedComputing(SAC’03),Melbourne,FL,March2003.[BM98]A.BlumandT.Mitchell.Combininglabeledandunlabeleddatawithco-training.InProc.11thConf.ComputationalLearningTheory(COLT’98),pp.92–100,Madison,WI,1998.[BMAD06]Z.A.Bakar,R.Mohemad,A.Ahmad,andM.M.Deris.Acomparativestudyforoutlierdetectiontechniquesindatamining.InProc.2006IEEEConf.CyberneticsandIntelligentSystems,pp.1–6,Bangkok,Thailand,2006.[BMS97]S.Brin,R.Motwani,andC.Silverstein.Beyondmarketbasket:Generalizingassocia-tionrulestocorrelations.InProc.1997ACM-SIGMODInt.Conf.ManagementofData(SIGMOD’97),pp.265–276,Tucson,AZ,May1997.[BMUT97]S.Brin,R.Motwani,J.D.Ullman,andS.Tsur.Dynamicitemsetco #################### File: Competitive%20Programming%2C%202nd%20Edition%20-%20Steven%20Halim%20%28PDF%29.pdf Page: 170 Context: # 6.3 AD HOC STRING PROCESSING PROBLEMS © Steven & Felix 1. **UVA 103: Wet Sponge** (read from the left to right) 2. **UVA 104: Pig Land** (find one, similar to UVA 683) 3. **UVA 115: Dead Beaver** (reverse the given format and index) 4. **UVA 117: Awesome Indicators** (indeterminate conversion problem) 5. **UVA 370: Barcodes** (prepare via user’s maps) 6. **UVA 415: Cypher Solver** (pinpoint a rare inverse map) 7. **UVA 556: Crying Kid** (is placed at sky's edge) 8. **UVA 601: Substitution Cypher** (simple character substitution mapping) 9. **UVA 612: Decrypt the Mail** (find matching characters) 10. **UVA 1203: 2-D Bilharphog** (a tensor flow, *'s' != 0, read from bottom) 11. **UVA 1209: Decode the Map** (complete several possible routes for us to consider) 12. **UVA 1210: Find the Elephant** (unidentified problem steps) 13. **UVA 1253: The Vigenère Cypher** (test with QWERTY keys to PYBARI keys) 14. **UVA 1354: I Decoded This** (entire manipulation = Phonatic numbers) 15. **UVA 1361: Decode** (read only the short description, a sublist) 16. **UVA 1167: Parallel Cypher** (block for the description of a tabulator) 17. **UVA 1176: Editorial Routines** (simple display) 18. **UVA 1184: Invisible Hilltops** (filling the description) ## Prerequisite Counting 1. **UVA 1003: Word Problem** (get letter freq of each word, compare with puzzle line) 2. **UVA 1004: Password Scramble** (read by the cursor and word frequency) 3. **UVA 1006: Roll on the Floor** (ASCII character frequency count) 4. **UVA 1009: 0 -
