Hi,
how do you create (design) algorithms.
I'm talking about thinking about it and come to an idea.

Paper, lots of paper.
Pencil, lots of pencil
Trying to solve the problem on Paper
and pencil. Once I can solve the problem
on paper -> repeat the whole thing and
monitor what I do.
Once you think you have an algorithm, go through
it with someone else. It really doesn't matter if
that someone understands what you are talking about.
Just having the need to express your ideas in talken
language is enough. You can even talk to a teddy bear
and it works.

The morning in the bed, a quarter of hour before the ring bells.
I take the problem (usually the algoritm) of the day before, and usually
I get it...

My most effective tool is my sub-conscious. I try to understand what the
problem is and then go on with my life. If I'm lucky, which I quite often
am, a solution will come to me in the next few hours.

I figure out how to do it by hand, keeping track of *everything* I do
and *everything* I have to remember. If you don't know how to do it
yourself, you don't have an algorithm.

:-) This isn't as strange as it might sound to some. Since
I mostly work alone at home, I usually can't discuss problems
'face to face' with someone. When I get stuck, sometimes I'll
'consult' with my cat. Of course his only answers are "Meow"
and perhaps rubbing against my leg. But As Karl says, just
vocalizing an issue can help uncover a solution. And Kitty
seems to appreciate the attention. :-)

My cats seem to have a one track mind:
Me: "What do you think about using multiple traversal pointers
and choosing the one or more that succeed?"
Cat:"Time to eat already! Meow!"
Me: "Is it better to use a global hash table or one for each scope?"
Cat:"Time to eat already! Meow!"

With my cat, the response is always "Why aren't you petting me? Meow!" I
think he's very intelligent, because he always has an answer for all of my
questions. I don't always understand his answers, but that's just a
communication issue. It still helps me (just as it helps Mike Wahler),
because I can have a phony conversation with my cat for a fair amount of
time before he becomes bored and walks away. :-) I figure that some people
might think I was fit for a straightjacket if they saw me doing that. If
he's not around, I wind up talking to myself, which works almost as well,
but isn't much better when witnessed by others. :-)

Hello!
I'm starting to dive into algorithms in general (sorting, trees etc.) and am
currently reading a book from Robert Sedgewick called "Algorithms in C++,
3rd. Edition" and would like other book recommendations on algorithms,
perhaps less hardcore than this one.
Although very interesting, I realize I need to get a solid foundation before
fully understanding the advanced topic covered in that book and would ask
for recommendations...

In STL, there is no copy_if algorithm. But how can I emulate that?
I am thinking about using find_if and then a copy.
But how can I pass the InputIterator (begin and end) to copy so that it
knows the range it tries to copy from.
Thanks for any idea.

Does anyone know why the documentation for
System.Security.Cryptography.MD5.Create() seems to omit completely any
description of allowed arguments.
I'm trying to convert some C++ code to C# and seem to be getting different
MD5 results. If other algorithms are available, maybe that is related to the
problem I'm having. But the docs for this method don't tell me anything
about what algorithms are supported?
Thanks.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
