2. Superpermutation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superpermutation

   Any hamiltonian path through the created graph is a superpermutation, and the problem of finding the path with the smallest weight becomes a form of the traveling salesman problem. The first instance of a superpermutation smaller than length 1 ! + 2 ! + … + n ! {\displaystyle 1!+2!+\ldots +n!} was found using a computer search on this method ...

3. Fermat's Last Theorem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_Last_Theorem

   Problem II.8 of the Arithmetica asks how a given square number is split into two other squares; in other words, for a given rational number k, find rational numbers u and v such that k 2 = u 2 + v 2. Diophantus shows how to solve this sum-of-squares problem for k = 4 (the solutions being u = 16/5 and v = 12/5). [29]

4. Convex hull algorithms - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_hull_algorithms

   Online convex hull problem: Input points are obtained sequentially one by one. After each point arrives on input, the convex hull for the pointset obtained so far must be efficiently computed. After each point arrives on input, the convex hull for the pointset obtained so far must be efficiently computed.

5. 100 prisoners problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_prisoners_problem

   The 100 prisoners problem is a mathematical problem in probability theory and combinatorics. In this problem, 100 numbered prisoners must find their own numbers in one of 100 drawers in order to survive. The rules state that each prisoner may open only 50 drawers and cannot communicate with other prisoners.

6. 24 (puzzle) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_(puzzle)

   The original version of 24 is played with an ordinary deck of playing cards with all the face cards removed. The aces are taken to have the value 1 and the basic game proceeds by having 4 cards dealt and the first player that can achieve the number 24 exactly using only allowed operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and parentheses) wins the hand.

7. Problem solving - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problem_solving

   Problem solving is the process of achieving a goal by overcoming obstacles, a frequent part of most activities. Problems in need of solutions range from simple personal tasks (e.g. how to turn on an appliance) to complex issues in business and technical fields.
