Fish Everyday!

By Tapos Pal
I read many articles everyday which includes some answers in Quora.  One of the best advise I have ever read -

"I don't go single day without fishing!" he said, pointing his finger to the sky.  "Rain, sun, hot, gloomy, I fish.  If I don't fish, I'm not happy.  If I'm not happy, life no good."

Scala Learning: Finding Square Root

By
I am renewing my learning in Scala and I have started the course Functional Programming Principles in Scala  in Coursera. Here is some code which is taken from that course object SqrtCalculator extends App{ def abs(x: Double): Double = if(x < 0) - x else x def sqrt (x: Double) : Double = { def sqrtIterator(guess: Double): Double = if (isGoodEnough(guess)) guess else sqrtIterator(improve(guess)) def isGoodEnough(guess: Double): Boolean = abs(guess * guess - x) / x < 0.0001 def improve(guess: Double): Double = (guess + x / guess) / 2 sqrtIterator(1.0) } println(sqrt(2)) println(sqrt(3)) println(sqrt(4)) println(sqrt(1e60)) } Output: 1.4142156862745097 1.7320508100147274 2.0000000929222947 1.0000000031080746E30 Process finished with exit code 0

Problem Solving: Implement an algorithm to delete a node in the middle of a single linked list, given only access to that node

By Tapos Pal
Problem Implement an algorithm to delete a node in the middle of a single linked list, given only access to that node EXAMPLE Input: the node ‘c’ from the linked list a->b->c->d->e Result: nothing is returned, but the new linked list looks like a->b->d->e Solution The question is a bit confusing. I first though its asking to remove the middle element of the list and I thought we have the full list. But later I think I got it. As per my understanding is we clear the node which we have access only and it will be somewhere in the middle. What we can do, we can migrate the data from next one to this one and set next to next of next. Code https://github.com/tapos/ctci/tree/master/src/p23
