Problem 109 - Project Euler
What have you tried and what help do you need?
actually, I am junior developer. This is my first year at programming and university. So, I didn't understand how to set up an algorithm and how to solve this problem. Our teacher gave us this problem as a final project.
Question about the problem.
I am guessing they want the sums of the number of ways to checkout from 99 to 1, correct?

This is a final project?!Quote:

How many distinct ways can a player checkout with a score less than 100?
Well... 38182Quote:

Write a program to calculate itQuote:

I'd start by counting out the possible add-on dart positions to a bullseye and set up formula using multiplication and/or power of said count, then I would do similar for the other reds and finally add them together, after that I would probably start looking for holes in my data and/or formula that would lead to an inaccurate result as the start is after all just rough math. Remember that red indicates double so at least one of the darts would have to land on red at the end, the rest can be either single or double so the count of positions will be multiplied against itself to get the initial count for bullseye and then once again for every other red, then the previous result would be added on to give a ballpark count of how many distinct ways a player can end on a double with less than 100 points, the only positions you need to really pay attention to is the inner 2, the rest won't bring the score to 100 or aboveQuote:
