    Types of Algorithm, need help!

    does anyone know any types of algorithm in C++. Its a final Examination Project that our Instructor just gave, i thought we'll make 2 string algo and pass it to him, today is the deadline and he didnt accept it cuz it was wrong and he told me i didnt followed instructions?... enough about that...

    please anyone who has any idea about:

    1. String algorithm
    2. Mathematical Algorithm

    send me everything you know about the title of the string and mathematical algo's, i will take care of the rest. Please help me

    You shouldn't be looking at the covers of the books; look inside them instead.

    Send you everything I know about that stuff? Yeah right, I don't have all year!

    It isn't the least bit clear what you want. How about you go and read those instructions that you aparently didn't follow, and follow them this time?!

    Well...

    1) A special case of #2 applied to character arrays.
    2) Generally speaking, a transformation of a set of inputs I into a set of outputs O.

    Pretty simple, right?

    I see. Well, to start with you might read this Wikipedia entry (near the bottom of the page under "String processing algorithms" are some common examples). As for mathematical algorithms, that pretty much encompasses everything in computer science. You might start with this to get your feet wet.
