Taye and Kenny were in class. They both tried to describe a man that was once sick. Taye said "The man had a cold." Kenny said "The man had had a cold." According to English grammar, Kenny was correct.

Now imagine their two teachers, Seun and Tony: Tony was a little off, and said that "Taye, while Kenny had had 'had had', had had 'had'; 'had' had had the better grammar." Seun corrected him, saying "Kenny, while Taye had had 'had', had had 'had had'; 'had had' had had the better grammar."

Continuing this pattern, the knowledgeable supervisor would note that "Seun, while Tony had had 'had had had had had had had had had had', had had 'had had had had had had had had had had had'; 'had had had had had had had had had had had' had had the better grammar."

Continuing this, how many 'had's would be in the incorrect 100th iteration?

Good evening, please is algorithm further math topic? I saw programmers needed it been looking for a way to learn it from basic to advanced but I don't know where to start cause I don't know if it is further maths or computer science topic or whatever

This one hard like concrete.

algoritm to my understanding is simply a step by step way of instructing a computer to accomplish a task. on the hand, algorithm analyses is the one that has to do with maths (logarithms, calculus etc).

oga dhtml18 come and shade some more light.

Confused, so should I learn logarithm and calculus first?

Ol' boy, this question is hard hard 'hard' hard hard.
I'm lost

Looks like nonsense to me...

I will use for loop from one to hundreds . This is easy but very technical .

Not really. you shld start with: sort algorithms, search agorithms, abstract data types (i.e stacks, lists, trees, queues etc). that shld be ok.

With want i understood by your story this is the number of
hads:

<?php
$txt = 'Seun, while Tony had had blah blah ...';
//split txt into and array
$sHADS = split($txt," " );

//remove the first three words to get number of hads

$num = count($sHADs) - 3;
$getHads = 1;

//start loop condition from the last HAD word

while($num <= 100)
$getHads += $num++;

//when loop is complete
echo "Number of Had's is : " . $getHads - 1 ;

?>

My dear, your algorithm will be correct only if the number of 'hads' increases arithmetically after each correction. Unfortunately, it doesnt. the first no of 'had' occured once. The second twice. The third 10. The fourth 11. The fourth 38. Find the constant between these numbers and the algorithm is solved.

And there are great coders in Nigeria(though very few) . But algorithms are not just about rushing to your keyboard to type. Its about
1. Understanding the problem (so that you can solve it if you had all the time and no computer)
2. Understanding its domain (what other problems like this have already been solved?)
3. implementing a solution

Source (Skienna, the Algorithm Designs Manual).

The major obstacle in solving this is the first step. which is not even computer-science based - not whether we have great coders or not.

@Op, can you please explain the grammar rule here?

Slyr0x: does the iteration starts from the teachers or the students?

Nice advice i will check awt that Skienna Design Stuff
Dnt blame me tho i am just a 16 year old developer with 1 year php experience
