Euler problems/31 to 40
Problem 31
Investigating combinations of English currency denominations.
Solution:
This is the naive doubly recursive solution. Speed would be greatly improved by use of memoization, dynamic programming, or the closed form.
problem_31 = pence 200 [1,2,5,10,20,50,100,200]
where pence 0 _ = 1
pence n [] = 0
pence n denominations@(d:ds)
| n < d = 0
| otherwise = pence (n - d) denominations
+ pence n ds
A beautiful solution, making usage of laziness and recursion to implement a dynamic programming scheme, blazingly fast despite actually generating the combinations and not only counting them :
coins = [1,2,5,10,20,50,100,200]
combinations = foldl (\without p ->
let (poor,rich) = splitAt p without
with = poor ++
zipWith (++) (map (map (p:)) with)
rich
in with
) ([[]] : repeat [])
problem_31 = length $ combinations coins !! 200
Problem 32

check a b =
no_zero s
&& (length ss) == 9
&& foldr (\x y -> length x == 1 && y) True ss
where
s = show a ++ show b ++ show (a*b)
ss = group $ sort s
no_zero (x:xs)

Problem 39
If p is the perimeter of a right angle triangle, {a, b, c}, which value, for p ≤ 1000, has the most solutions?
Solution: We use the well known formula to generate primitive Pythagorean triples. All we need are the perimeters, and they have to be scaled to produce all triples in the problem space.
problem_39 = head $ perims !! indexMax
where perims = group
$ sort [n*p | p <- pTriples, n <- [1..1000 `div` p]]
counts = map length perims

pTriples = [p |
n <- [1..floor (sqrt 1000)],
m <- [n+1..floor (sqrt 1000)],
even n || even m,
gcd n m == 1,

let b = 2*m*n,
let c = m^2 + n^2,
let p = a + b + c,
p < 1000]
