Problems

If you've already solved one or more of these problems, try (1) solving again without referring to your old solution, and/or (2) using a different language (Java or C++). If you want to work on an additional problem from this chapter, let me know.

Notes:

  • A: (1) Read carefully the part about echoing the input. (2) Is performance an issue? Consider remembering what you've already computed. (3) Do you handle the largest possible input?
  • B: Make sure you handle the edge cases correctly.
  • C: 10.03 * 100 != 1003.
  • D: If the voting results in a tie, print the tied candidates in input order.
