Reverse words in a string
Task Reverse the order of all tokens in each of a number of strings and display the result;   the order of characters within a token should not be modified. Example Hey you, Bub!   would be shown reversed as:   Bub! you, Hey Tokens are any non-space characters separated by spaces (formally, white-space);   the visible punctuation form part of the word within which it is located and should not be modified. You may assume that there are no significant non-visible characters in the input.   Multiple or superfluous spaces may be compressed into a single space. Some strings have no tokens, so an empty string   (or one just containing spaces)   would be the result. Display the strings in order   (1st, 2nd, 3rd, ···),   and one string per line. (You can consider the ten strings as ten lines, and the tokens as words.) Input data (ten lines within the box) line ╔════════════════════════════════════════╗ 1 ║ ---------- Ice and Fire ------------ ║ 2 ║ ║ ◄─── a blank line here. 3 ║ fire, in end will world the say Some ║ 4 ║ ice. in say Some ║ 5 ║ desire of tasted I've what From ║ 6 ║ fire. favor who those with hold I ║ 7 ║ ║ ◄─── a blank line here. 8 ║ ... elided paragraph last ... ║ 9 ║ ║ ◄─── a blank line here. 10 ║ Frost Robert ----------------------- ║ ╚════════════════════════════════════════╝ Cf.

Rot-13
Task Implement a   rot-13   function   (or procedure, class, subroutine, or other "callable" object as appropriate to your programming environment). Optionally wrap this function in a utility program   (like tr,   which acts like a common UNIX utility, performing a line-by-line rot-13 encoding of every line of input contained in each file listed on its command line,   or (if no filenames are passed thereon) acting as a filter on its   "standard input." (A number of UNIX scripting languages and utilities, such as   awk   and   sed   either default to processing files in this way or have command line switches or modules to easily implement these wrapper semantics, e.g.,   Perl   and   Python). The   rot-13   encoding is commonly known from the early days of Usenet "Netnews" as a way of obfuscating text to prevent casual reading of   spoiler   or potentially offensive material. Many news reader and mail user agent programs have built-in rot-13 encoder/decoders or have the ability to feed a message through any external utility script for performing this (or other) actions. The definition of the rot-13 function is to simply replace every letter of the ASCII alphabet with the letter which is "rotated" 13 characters "around" the 26 letter alphabet from its normal cardinal position   (wrapping around from   z   to   a   as necessary). Thus the letters   abc   become   nop   and so on. Technically rot-13 is a   "mono-alphabetic substitution cipher"   with a trivial   "key". A proper implementation should work on upper and lower case letters, preserve case, and pass all non-alphabetic characters in the input stream through without alteration.

Roman numerals/Encode
Task Create a function taking a positive integer as its parameter and returning a string containing the Roman numeral representation of that integer. Modern Roman numerals are written by expressing each digit separately, starting with the left most digit and skipping any digit with a value of zero. In Roman numerals: 1990 is rendered: 1000=M, 900=CM, 90=XC; resulting in MCMXC 2008 is written as 2000=MM, 8=VIII; or MMVIII 1666 uses each Roman symbol in descending order: MDCLXVI

There are basically three approaches seen here: Put the elements into a hash table which does not allow duplicates. The complexity is O(n) on average, and O(n2) worst case. This approach requires a hash function for your type (which is compatible with equality), either built-in to your language, or provided by the user. Sort the elements and remove consecutive duplicate elements. The complexity of the best sorting algorithms is O(n log n). This approach requires that your type be "comparable", i.e., have an ordering. Putting the elements into a self-balancing binary search tree is a special case of sorting. Go through the list, and for each element, check the rest of the list to see if it appears again, and discard it if it does. The complexity is O(n2). The up-shot is that this always works on any type (provided that you can test for equality).

Reduced row echelon form
Reduced row echelon form You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know. Task Show how to compute the reduced row echelon form (a.k.a. row canonical form) of a matrix. The matrix can be stored in any datatype that is convenient (for most languages, this will probably be a two-dimensional array). Built-in functions or this pseudocode (from Wikipedia) may be used: function ToReducedRowEchelonForm(Matrix M) is lead := 0 rowCount := the number of rows in M columnCount := the number of columns in M for 0 ≤ r < rowCount do if columnCount ≤ lead then stop end if i = r while M[i, lead] = 0 do i = i + 1 if rowCount = i then i = r lead = lead + 1 if columnCount = lead then stop end if end if end while Swap rows i and r If M[r, lead] is not 0 divide row r by M[r, lead] for 0 ≤ i < rowCount do if i ≠ r do Subtract M[i, lead] multiplied by row r from row i end if end for lead = lead + 1 end for end function For testing purposes, the RREF of this matrix: 1 2 -1 -4 2 3 -1 -11 -2 0 -3 22 is: 1 0 0 -8 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 -2

Remove lines from a file
Task Remove a specific line or a number of lines from a file. This should be implemented as a routine that takes three parameters (filename, starting line, and the number of lines to be removed). For the purpose of this task, line numbers and the number of lines start at one, so to remove the first two lines from the file foobar.txt, the parameters should be: foobar.txt, 1, 2 Empty lines are considered and should still be counted, and if the specified line is empty, it should still be removed. An appropriate message should appear if an attempt is made to remove lines beyond the end of the file.

Rep-string
Given a series of ones and zeroes in a string, define a repeated string or rep-string as a string which is created by repeating a substring of the first N characters of the string truncated on the right to the length of the input string, and in which the substring appears repeated at least twice in the original. For example, the string 10011001100 is a rep-string as the leftmost four characters of 1001 are repeated three times and truncated on the right to give the original string. Note that the requirement for having the repeat occur two or more times means that the repeating unit is never longer than half the length of the input string. Task Write a function/subroutine/method/... that takes a string and returns an indication of if it is a rep-string and the repeated string.   (Either the string that is repeated, or the number of repeated characters would suffice). There may be multiple sub-strings that make a string a rep-string - in that case an indication of all, or the longest, or the shortest would suffice. Use the function to indicate the repeating substring if any, in the following: 1001110011 1110111011 0010010010 1010101010 1111111111 0100101101 0100100 101 11 00 1 Show your output on this page.

Rot-13
Task Implement a   rot-13   function   (or procedure, class, subroutine, or other "callable" object as appropriate to your programming environment). Optionally wrap this function in a utility program   (like tr,   which acts like a common UNIX utility, performing a line-by-line rot-13 encoding of every line of input contained in each file listed on its command line,   or (if no filenames are passed thereon) acting as a filter on its   "standard input." (A number of UNIX scripting languages and utilities, such as   awk   and   sed   either default to processing files in this way or have command line switches or modules to easily implement these wrapper semantics, e.g.,   Perl   and   Python). The   rot-13   encoding is commonly known from the early days of Usenet "Netnews" as a way of obfuscating text to prevent casual reading of   spoiler   or potentially offensive material. Many news reader and mail user agent programs have built-in rot-13 encoder/decoders or have the ability to feed a message through any external utility script for performing this (or other) actions. The definition of the rot-13 function is to simply replace every letter of the ASCII alphabet with the letter which is "rotated" 13 characters "around" the 26 letter alphabet from its normal cardinal position   (wrapping around from   z   to   a   as necessary). Thus the letters   abc   become   nop   and so on. Technically rot-13 is a   "mono-alphabetic substitution cipher"   with a trivial   "key". A proper implementation should work on upper and lower case letters, preserve case, and pass all non-alphabetic characters in the input stream through without alteration.

There are basically three approaches seen here: Put the elements into a hash table which does not allow duplicates. The complexity is O(n) on average, and O(n2) worst case. This approach requires a hash function for your type (which is compatible with equality), either built-in to your language, or provided by the user. Sort the elements and remove consecutive duplicate elements. The complexity of the best sorting algorithms is O(n log n). This approach requires that your type be "comparable", i.e., have an ordering. Putting the elements into a self-balancing binary search tree is a special case of sorting. Go through the list, and for each element, check the rest of the list to see if it appears again, and discard it if it does. The complexity is O(n2). The up-shot is that this always works on any type (provided that you can test for equality).

Task Remove a specific line or a number of lines from a file. This should be implemented as a routine that takes three parameters (filename, starting line, and the number of lines to be removed). For the purpose of this task, line numbers and the number of lines start at one, so to remove the first two lines from the file foobar.txt, the parameters should be: foobar.txt, 1, 2 Empty lines are considered and should still be counted, and if the specified line is empty, it should still be removed. An appropriate message should appear if an attempt is made to remove lines beyond the end of the file.

Reverse words in a string
Task Reverse the order of all tokens in each of a number of strings and display the result;   the order of characters within a token should not be modified. Example Hey you, Bub!   would be shown reversed as:   Bub! you, Hey Tokens are any non-space characters separated by spaces (formally, white-space);   the visible punctuation form part of the word within which it is located and should not be modified. You may assume that there are no significant non-visible characters in the input.   Multiple or superfluous spaces may be compressed into a single space. Some strings have no tokens, so an empty string   (or one just containing spaces)   would be the result. Display the strings in order   (1st, 2nd, 3rd, ···),   and one string per line. (You can consider the ten strings as ten lines, and the tokens as words.)

Rot-13
Task Implement a   rot-13   function   (or procedure, class, subroutine, or other "callable" object as appropriate to your programming environment). Optionally wrap this function in a utility program   (like tr,   which acts like a common UNIX utility, performing a line-by-line rot-13 encoding of every line of input contained in each file listed on its command line,   or (if no filenames are passed thereon) acting as a filter on its   "standard input." (A number of UNIX scripting languages and utilities, such as   awk   and   sed   either default to processing files in this way or have command line switches or modules to easily implement these wrapper semantics, e.g.,   Perl   and   Python). The   rot-13   encoding is commonly known from the early days of Usenet "Netnews" as a way of obfuscating text to prevent casual reading of   spoiler   or potentially offensive material. Many news reader and mail user agent programs have built-in rot-13 encoder/decoders or have the ability to feed a message through any external utility script for performing this (or other) actions. The definition of the rot-13 function is to simply replace every letter of the ASCII alphabet with the letter which is "rotated" 13 characters "around" the 26 letter alphabet from its normal cardinal position   (wrapping around from   z   to   a   as necessary). Thus the letters   abc   become   nop   and so on. Technically rot-13 is a   "mono-alphabetic substitution cipher"   with a trivial   "key". A proper implementation should work on upper and lower case letters, preserve case, and pass all non-alphabetic characters in the input stream through without alteration.

There are basically three approaches seen here: Put the elements into a hash table which does not allow duplicates. The complexity is O(n) on average, and O(n2) worst case. This approach requires a hash function for your type (which is compatible with equality), either built-in to your language, or provided by the user. Sort the elements and remove consecutive duplicate elements. The complexity of the best sorting algorithms is O(n log n). This approach requires that your type be "comparable", i.e., have an ordering. Putting the elements into a self-balancing binary search tree is a special case of sorting. Go through the list, and for each element, check the rest of the list to see if it appears again, and discard it if it does. The complexity is O(n2). The up-shot is that this always works on any type (provided that you can test for equality).

Task Remove a specific line or a number of lines from a file. This should be implemented as a routine that takes three parameters (filename, starting line, and the number of lines to be removed). For the purpose of this task, line numbers and the number of lines start at one, so to remove the first two lines from the file foobar.txt, the parameters should be: foobar.txt, 1, 2 Empty lines are considered and should still be counted, and if the specified line is empty, it should still be removed.

Reverse words in a string
Task Reverse the order of all tokens in each of a number of strings and display the result;   the order of characters within a token should not be modified. Example Hey you, Bub!   would be shown reversed as:   Bub! you, Hey Tokens are any non-space characters separated by spaces (formally, white-space);   the visible punctuation form part of the word within which it is located and should not be modified. You may assume that there are no significant non-visible characters in the input.   Multiple or superfluous spaces may be compressed into a single space. Some strings have no tokens, so an empty string   (or one just containing spaces)   would be the result. Display the strings in order   (1st, 2nd, 3rd, ···),   and one string per line. (You can consider the ten strings as ten lines, and the tokens as words.)

Rot-13
Task Implement a   rot-13   function   (or procedure, class, subroutine, or other "callable" object as appropriate to your programming environment). Optionally wrap this function in a utility program   (like tr,   which acts like a common UNIX utility, performing a line-by-line rot-13 encoding of every line of input contained in each file listed on its command line,   or (if no filenames are passed thereon) acting as a filter on its   "standard input." (A number of UNIX scripting languages and utilities, such as   awk   and   sed   either default to processing files in this way or have command line switches or modules to easily implement these wrapper semantics, e.g.,   Perl   and   Python). The   rot-13   encoding is commonly known from the early days of Usenet "Netnews" as a way of obfuscating text to prevent casual reading of   spoiler   or potentially offensive material. Many news reader and mail user agent programs have built-in rot-13 encoder/decoders or have the ability to feed a message through any external utility script for performing this (or other) actions. The definition of the rot-13 function is to simply replace every letter of the ASCII alphabet with the letter which is "rotated" 13 characters "around" the 26 letter alphabet from its normal cardinal position   (wrapping around from   z   to   a   as necessary). Thus the letters   abc   become   nop   and so on. Technically rot-13 is a   "mono-alphabetic substitution cipher"   with a trivial   "key". A proper implementation should work on upper and lower case letters, preserve case, and pass all non-alphabetic characters in the input stream through without alteration.

Remove duplicate elements
Sorting Algorithm This is a sorting algorithm.   It may be applied to a set of data in order to sort it.     For comparing various sorts, see compare sorts.   For other sorting algorithms,   see sorting algorithms,   or: O(n logn) sorts Heap sort | Merge sort | Patience sort | Quick sort O(n log2n) sorts Shell Sort O(n2) sorts Bubble sort | Cocktail sort | Cocktail sort with shifting bounds | Comb sort | Cycle sort | Gnome sort | Insertion sort | Selection sort | Strand sort other sorts Bead sort | Bogo sort | Common sorted list | Composite structures sort | Custom comparator sort | Counting sort | Disjoint sublist sort | External sort | Jort sort | Lexicographical sort | Natural sorting | Order by pair comparisons | Order disjoint list items | Order two numerical lists | Object identifier (OID) sort | Pancake sort | Quickselect | Permutation sort | Radix sort | Ranking methods | Remove duplicate elements | Sleep sort | Stooge sort | [Sort letters of a string] | Three variable sort | Topological sort | Tree sort Given an Array, derive a sequence of elements in which all duplicates are removed. There are basically three approaches seen here: Put the elements into a hash table which does not allow duplicates. The complexity is O(n) on average, and O(n2) worst case. This approach requires a hash function for your type (which is compatible with equality), either built-in to your language, or provided by the user. Sort the elements and remove consecutive duplicate elements. The complexity of the best sorting algorithms is O(n log n). This approach requires that your type be "comparable", i.e., have an ordering. Putting the elements into a self-balancing binary search tree is a special case of sorting. Go through the list, and for each element, check the rest of the list to see if it appears again, and discard it if it does. The complexity is O(n2). The up-shot is that this always works on any type (provided that you can test for equality).

Reduced row echelon form
Reduced row echelon form You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know. Task Show how to compute the reduced row echelon form (a.k.a. row canonical form) of a matrix. The matrix can be stored in any datatype that is convenient (for most languages, this will probably be a two-dimensional array). Built-in functions or this pseudocode (from Wikipedia) may be used: function ToReducedRowEchelonForm(Matrix M) is lead := 0 rowCount := the number of rows in M columnCount := the number of columns in M for 0 ≤ r < rowCount do if columnCount ≤ lead then stop end if i = r while M[i, lead] = 0 do i = i + 1 if rowCount = i then i = r lead = lead + 1 if columnCount = lead then stop end if end if end while Swap rows i and r If M[r, lead] is not 0 divide row r by M[r, lead] for 0 ≤ i < rowCount do if i ≠ r do Subtract M[i, lead] multiplied by row r from row i end if end for lead = lead + 1 end for end function For testing purposes, the RREF of this matrix: 1 2 -1 -4 2 3 -1 -11 -2 0 -3 22 is: 1 0 0 -8 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 -2

Task Remove a specific line or a number of lines from a file. This should be implemented as a routine that takes three parameters (filename, starting line, and the number of lines to be removed). For the purpose of this task, line numbers and the number of lines start at one, so to remove the first two lines from the file foobar.txt, the parameters should be: foobar.txt, 1, 2 Empty lines are considered and should still be counted, and if the specified line is empty, it should still be removed. An appropriate message should appear if an attempt is made to remove lines beyond the end of the file.

There are basically three approaches seen here: Put the elements into a hash table which does not allow duplicates. The complexity is O(n) on average, and O(n2) worst case. This approach requires a hash function for your type (which is compatible with equality), either built-in to your language, or provided by the user. Sort the elements and remove consecutive duplicate elements. The complexity of the best sorting algorithms is O(n log n). This approach requires that your type be "comparable", i.e., have an ordering. Putting the elements into a self-balancing binary search tree is a special case of sorting. Go through the list, and for each element, check the rest of the list to see if it appears again, and discard it if it does. The complexity is O(n2). The up-shot is that this always works on any type (provided that you can test for equality).

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Rot-13
Rot-13
Task Implement a   rot-13   function   (or procedure, class, subroutine, or other "callable" object as appropriate to your programming environment). Optionally wrap this function in a utility program   (like tr,   which acts like a common UNIX utility, performing a line-by-line rot-13 encoding of every line of input contained in each file listed on its command line,   or (if no filenames are passed thereon) acting as a filter on its   "standard input." (A number of UNIX scripting languages and utilities, such as   awk   and   sed   either default to processing files in this way or have command line switches or modules to easily implement these wrapper semantics, e.g.,   Perl   and   Python). The   rot-13   encoding is commonly known from the early days of Usenet "Netnews" as a way of obfuscating text to prevent casual reading of   spoiler   or potentially offensive material. Many news reader and mail user agent programs have built-in rot-13 encoder/decoders or have the ability to feed a message through any external utility script for performing this (or other) actions. The definition of the rot-13 function is to simply replace every letter of the ASCII alphabet with the letter which is "rotated" 13 characters "around" the 26 letter alphabet from its normal cardinal position   (wrapping around from   z   to   a   as necessary). Thus the letters   abc   become   nop   and so on. Technically rot-13 is a   "mono-alphabetic substitution cipher"   with a trivial   "key". A proper implementation should work on upper and lower case letters, preserve case, and pass all non-alphabetic characters in the input stream through without alteration.

Roman numerals/Encode
Task Create a function taking a positive integer as its parameter and returning a string containing the Roman numeral representation of that integer. Modern Roman numerals are written by expressing each digit separately, starting with the left most digit and skipping any digit with a value of zero. In Roman numerals: 1990 is rendered: 1000=M, 900=CM, 90=XC; resulting in MCMXC 2008 is written as 2000=MM, 8=VIII; or MMVIII 1666 uses each Roman symbol in descending order: MDCLXVI

There are basically three approaches seen here: Put the elements into a hash table which does not allow duplicates. The complexity is O(n) on average, and O(n2) worst case. This approach requires a hash function for your type (which is compatible with equality), either built-in to your language, or provided by the user. Sort the elements and remove consecutive duplicate elements. The complexity of the best sorting algorithms is O(n log n). This approach requires that your type be "comparable", i.e., have an ordering. Putting the elements into a self-balancing binary search tree is a special case of sorting. Go through the list, and for each element, check the rest of the list to see if it appears again, and discard it if it does. The complexity is O(n2). The up-shot is that this always works on any type (provided that you can test for equality).

Reduced row echelon form
Reduced row echelon form You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know. Task Show how to compute the reduced row echelon form (a.k.a. row canonical form) of a matrix. The matrix can be stored in any datatype that is convenient (for most languages, this will probably be a two-dimensional array). Built-in functions or this pseudocode (from Wikipedia) may be used: function ToReducedRowEchelonForm(Matrix M) is lead := 0 rowCount := the number of rows in M columnCount := the number of columns in M for 0 ≤ r < rowCount do if columnCount ≤ lead then stop end if i = r while M[i, lead] = 0 do i = i + 1 if rowCount = i then i = r lead = lead + 1 if columnCount = lead then stop end if end if end while Swap rows i and r If M[r, lead] is not 0 divide row r by M[r, lead] for 0 ≤ i < rowCount do if i ≠ r do Subtract M[i, lead] multiplied by row r from row i end if end for lead = lead + 1 end for end function For testing purposes, the RREF of this matrix: 1 2 -1 -4 2 3 -1 -11 -2 0 -3 22 is: 1 0 0 -8 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 -2

Remove lines from a file
Task Remove a specific line or a number of lines from a file. This should be implemented as a routine that takes three parameters (filename, starting line, and the number of lines to be removed). For the purpose of this task, line numbers and the number of lines start at one, so to remove the first two lines from the file foobar.txt, the parameters should be: foobar.txt, 1, 2 Empty lines are considered and should still be counted, and if the specified line is empty, it should still be removed. An appropriate message should appear if an attempt is made to remove lines beyond the end of the file.

Task Load the entire contents of some text file as a single string variable. If applicable, discuss: encoding selection, the possibility of memory-mapping. Of course, in practice one should avoid reading an entire file at once if the file is large and the task can be accomplished incrementally instead (in which case check File IO); this is for those cases where having the entire file is actually what is wanted.
