Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Functions and Fractals: Sierpinski triangles The problem of drawing the Sierpinski triangles is considered to be advanced problem and it really is. The Sierpinski triangle is a fractal, constructed by recursively subdividing equilateral triangles into
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Pascal's Triangle The second problem from the Recursive subdomain is printing Pascal's Triangle for given n. Pascal's triangle is named after famous French mathematician from XVII century, Blaise Pascal. His findings on
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Computing the GCD The greatest common divisor (or GCD) of two integers is the largest positive integer that divides two of these integers. The first of the Recursion problems on the Functional track at Hackerrank is computing the GCD using the Euclidean Algorithm. In this algorythm the
Free Post F# F#: How to check that tail recursion calls are optimised The tail recursion optimisation happens when a compiler decides that instead of performing recursive function call (and add new entry to the execution stack) it is possible to use loop-like
Free Post F# Quickstart WPF F#-only app in VSCode - Part 3 How to quickly create WPF F# project was shown in the first part. FsXaml and paket was added in the second part. This part will go reactive: add ReactiveUI and show how to update the view model asynchronously from F#. This part starts where
Free Post F# Quickstart WPF F#-only app in VSCode - Part 2 The first part shown how to create a WPF F# project with simple window and its view model, build this project and run it. Now lets add FsXaml using packet, use it to create types from XAML and create user control. All by directly
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Compute the Area of a Polygon This is the last from the introductional problems in the Functional Programming domain on Hackerrank. This also might be most complicated among the introductionary problems: You are given the cartesian coordinates of a set of points in a 2D plane. When traversed sequentially, these
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Compute the Perimeter of a Polygon The problem of computing perimeter of the polygon is one of the easy problems, but it requires a bit more programming. You are given the cartesian coordinates of a set of points in a 2D plane. When traversed sequentially, these points form a Polygon,
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Functions or Not? The Functions or Not? problem is defined as follows: You are given a set of unique (x, y) ordered pairs constituting a relation. For each of these relations, identify whether they may possibly represent a valid function or not. On a new line for
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Lambda Calculus - Reductions #4 The last one from reduction problems is following: Reduce the following expression, using the beta-rule, to no more than one term. If the expression cannot be reduced, enter "CAN'T REDUCE". (λg.((λf.((λx.(f(xx)))(λx.(f(xx)))))g)) Well, now I
Free Post HackerRank Functional Challenges HR F#: Area Under Curves and Volume of Revolving a Curve The next problem, Area Under Curves and Volume of Revolving a Curve, in mathematically advance so I introduce some therms and facts first. Numerical integration is the measuring the area between function and axis, which is done by evaluating function in many points closing
Free Post F# HR F#: Evaluating eˣ The problem Evaluating e^x: The series expansion of eˣ is given by $$1 + x + \frac{x^2} {2!} + \frac{x^3} {3!} + \frac{x^4} {4!} + ...$$ Evaluate eˣ for given values of x by using the above expansion for the first 10 terms.
Free Post F# HR F#: Updating List The problem Updating List requires learning how to generate one list from another. Update the values of a list with their absolute values. In many other programming languages the common approach is to update the array items: a[i] = abs(a[i]);, e.g.
Free Post F# HR F#: List Length The problem List Length is interesting because it can be solved using mutable counter but it also can be solved in more functional way. Count the number of elements in an array without using count, size or length operators (or their equivalents). First, let's
