Hi, I am filling up graduate school applications, but I am asked to list the universities I am applying for. Any ideas about the reasons they ask us? Should I tell them? I am afraid this information will affect the admission in a bad way.

Hi! (Smile) Given two sorted lists $M_1, M_2$, I want to write an algorithm, that creates a new list $M_3$, that contains the elements of $M_1$, that do not exist in $M_2$. That's what I have tried: Algorithm(M1,M2){ pointer q=M1, p=M2, M3; int same=0; if (M1==NULL) return error...

Hello! (Wave) Given two lists, $L_1$ with $n_1$ elements and $L_2$ with $n_2$ elements, I want to write an algorithm that creates a new list $L_3$, for which the following stand: The elements at the odd positions of $L_3$ are these that are at the even positions of $L_1$ The elements at the...

Hello! (Smile) Suppose that each node of a list has the following structs: string $$$$ num $$$$ next It is given a string $w$. Suppose that $w$ is in the list at a node $p$, of which the struct num has the value n. We are looking for the value of the struct string of the node that...

Hi, I'm trying to reverse a list in Common Lisp without using the reverse function. I've had a go but it's not working. Can anyone help? (defun my-reverse(my-list) (cond ((null my-list) nil) (t (append (my-reverse(cdr my-list)) (list (car my-list)))))) Thanks.

Hey Everyone, Would appreciate any advice or suggestions. I know that I do not have many "safeties", but that is because I am applying to a bunch of master's programs (not physics /because of research interest) Physics GPA: 3.5ish ( No grade lower than a B... lots of advanced courses!)...

Hi! (Smile) If we want to look for an element $x$ in a list, we can use a sentinel value. What do we gain, with the use of a sentinel value?

Hello! (Smile) I want to implement the algorithm Delete() for linked lists. That's what I have tried: void Delete(pointer L,Type x){ if (L==NULL){ printf("There is no element x in the list. \n"); return; } pointer q=L; while (q!=NULL &&...

Hey! :o When I have to delete a list from an array of linked-lists, do I have to delete all the nodes of the list? Or do I have to do also something at the array?? There is a list, I have to separate this list into two others and delete the initial list from the array. I used a function to...

So I'm looking for opinions on the list of grad schools I'm looking to apply for. I am not sure if I am applying to too many "reach" schools or not. I am interested in doing plasma physics, most likely experiment and computation, but theory isn't completely out of the question either. First...

I only see positive factors in my book. Example: 2 and 2 are factors of 4. But aren't -2 and -2? Is there some unspoken rule in math that only positive factors count? Thanks!

It is surprising how expensive the books are that contain the Ramaujan identities and equations. I understand the work to 'prove' them must have been a tremendous undertaking however I find the price of the 'notebooks' for Ramanujan's work prohibitively expensive. I believe wolfram put it...

I am looking for a book that has a comprehensive list of Ramaujans Identities and Equations. I have read that he created 3900 such pieces of work and it would be fascinating to see such a collection that came from just one person.
