2003 Answers (with Test Data)

 

2002 Answers:

Problem 2: Large Number Integer Division

The more general solution is to implement this division as a series of subtraction operations.  This code uses optimizations to ensure correctness.  Developed in VC++ 6.0, but tested in Turbo C++ 4.5

Problem 3: Sorting two sets of data

Instead of implementing a specific parallel sorting algorithm, this code allocates an array of character pointers and places the string into the appropriate location in the array. Developed in VC++ 6.0, but tested in Turbo C++ 4.5

Problem 5: Simple Routing Problem

This code is implemented using a single struct and uses an array of routes in a case statement to determine which route is the best.  Developed in VC++ 6.0, but tested in Turbo C++ 4.5
