There is a mistake in my opinion on the text. In my working i have,

##y_1= 3 + 0.2 e^{\cos1} = 3+ 0.54357 = 3.54357##
##y_2 = 3.54357 + 0.2 e^{\cos 1.2} = 4.0871##
##y_3 = 4.0871 + 0.2 e^{\cos 1.4} = 4.6305##

I also noted that we do not have an exact solution for this problem.

It's given that ##y_1 = 3## when ##x_1 = 1##
##y_2 = 3 + 0.2e^{\cos(1)} \approx 3.343305## which agrees with the value shown in the image.

aaaaaaaah hahaha i was using degrees instead of radians. Silly of me :wink: @Mark44 do we have an exact solution to this problem?
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
