• To practice solving problems in a generic manner
• To practice writing basic pseudocode for the solution of a problem

Assignment:

Solve each of the problems below for their specific solutions. Just do this on a piece of paper (do not hand it in). Then determine the generic solutions to the problems. Write the generic solutions in pseudocode. Type the pseudocoded solutions in to a single text file using the xemacs editor. Send the file as an e-mail attachment to Lan (luo@umbc.edu). Make the subject of your e-mail "Project 2 - Basic Algorithms".

Make sure that your pseudocoded solutions include, as discussed in class:
