Summary
Control statements in programming perform computations and are faster than loops. They can range from simple additions to complex formulas. This covers methods to find optimal solutions using various mathematical principles and techniques.
Optimal Solutions Using Maths
Mathematical principles such as recurrences, induction, algebra, equations, Vedic mathematics, number theory, backtracking, trigonometry and logic help generalise problems. Several examples show how to find optimal solutions, such as the angle between the hour and minute hands on a clock.
Finding Biggest of Three Numbers
An algorithm to find the biggest of three numbers without using relational operators is explained. It involves generating equations and solving them to find the largest value. The method uses roots of quadratic equations.
Check If Number Is Power of 2
A method to check if a number is a power of 2 is described. It uses bitwise operations to determine if a number meets the criteria. The algorithm is based on the properties of powers of 2.
Recursive Sum of Digits
The document explains how to find the recursive sum of digits of a number using the modulo operation. It describes how the modulo 9 operation works and its application in finding the sum of digits.
