Why the eff doesn't Canada do anything? It's very hard to understand. This goes way beyond freedom of speech. > Unfortunately, a generation of Sikhs will feel the wrath of society because of these brain dead taxi drivers. I agree. But this seems to be their objective and MO. Manufacture a grievance,...

Sanman, Thank you for your response. Very informative. When I studied AI (which was like 65 million years ago), the approach to tackling AI problems was very different. Since then there has been an explosion of knowledge, even though, as you say, it's still in its infancy. It's quite exciting. Here'...

Sanman,
Are you working in this field(AI) fulltime?

(Sorry couldn't send a DM, there was no option)

I do too. That was the first meet we organized. I don't remember JEM being there.

Let's have another one.

"Re" ?

Was there a blanket ban once?

My C++ solution is here . It compiles under Visual Studio 2013. Code (and design) review is welcome. But this is probably not the kind of code I'd write in production environment. This was only meant to illustrate an algorithm. Recommended starting point is GetCountOf() function. Others are helper f...

MatrimC,
Thanks for bringing my attention to PATRICIA Tries. I'll study it and see how I can incorporate it in my solution.

Hi Armen, Thanks for spending time on the algorithm and then posting your solution. My algorithm is as follows: For each element in the array (or matrix) ... push into a stack ... remember that we visited this location. We need to remember this so that when we generate neighbours we don't include it...

A variation of the above is this:
Given an n by m array of letters, find how many times a certain word occurs in it.
For example, the array might be
a f o r
b c f o
d r o r

how many times the word "for" occurs in it.
The algorithm should take any word and find its count.

Jaspreet

A question I was asked recently: Given an m by n array of letters, create four letter words by adhering to the following: 1. Start from element 0, 0. 2. You may go up, down, left or right but not diagonally. 3. If you can't create a four letter word (maybe because the path you took reaches the top o...

Book suggestion.
One book that I've seen recommended is
Data Structures and Algorithms Made Easy by Narasimha Karumanchi

If anyone has read it, their review is welcome.

I will set the tone by talking about a permutation algorithm. The problem is: Given a set of n digits, find all the permutations. For example, given 1 & 2, the permutations are 1 2 2 1 Given 1 2 3, the permutations are 1 2 3 1 3 2 3 1 2 2 1 3 2 3 1 3 2 1 The number of permutations is n!. An algo...

One thing I wonder about is that there are plenty of marginally profitable, low-end small businesses (retail stores, hair cutting salons, chaiwalas etc) running in central areas of big cities. How do they manage to survive in what should be high-rent areas? I can tell you about Delhi. I don't know ...

There is a whole field of research around 'intelligence studies' that looks at various causes of low or high IQ - including genetic, social and religious factors.

Diet and nutrition should also be considered.

Why do I see this sense of persecution among the Sikhs?

All religions have this sense of persecution. Sikhism is no exception. Name a religion that doesn't have it.

A relative of those women who were uprooted from their lives and hidden for years lest they find themselves in the holy precincts of Harminder Sahib to be used as sex slaves. I did not know such things happened. I am deeply sorry for your relative. Please tell us what you would you like done by an ...

Jaspreet

he point I made is, that I have never heard them talk about "love" and "peace" in the context of Hindus. Muslims, yes. Islamists, yes. I see from your posts again and again that words and ceremonies are more important to you than deeds. You have an overwhelming desire for people...

Jaspreet

I am not surprised at all that you dont see a necessity of a dialogue.

A quote from my post:
"Perhaps an exchange program is needed, perhaps not, I can't say."

In other words, I don't know. I didn't say I don't see the need. I have an open mind on this subject.

SBajwa did express gratitude when some Hindu group held prayers. It is a few pages back....I think you will find it is worth reading. A whole lot of people did. My facebook newsfeed was full of people expressing gratitude and being overwhelmed with the love shown. Just because it didn't happen on t...

Jaspreet

I think whoever expressed sympathy did so because they're appalled by the tragedy and not because they expected gratitude from someone. If I was a spokesman of the Sikhs, I'd definitely express thanks. But then a genuinely sympathetic person would be insulted. Instead a fellow human would help them ...

Jaspreet

Thanks Shiv. That's exactly what I wanted to say. And that's all I wanted to say. Nothing to do with Hinduism or Taoism at all.

Jaspreet

Please disregard my posts. It seems that in trying to defend Sikhi I have triggered off Hindu self-flagellation. Posters are using my words for their own ends.

I apologize.

Jaspreet

Sangram, my post wasn't meant for you. It was for BobbyP only. I don't know why you were offended. It was meant for those people who take a unidimensional view of Sikhi.

That's all.

Jaspreet

And Bajwa Sab, how come the proud Sikhs, the pride of all martial races in India, have all of a sudden become adherents of non-violence and turning the other cheek, kind of Gandhians and are talking about love, like the flower children of the 60s. Absolutely. One sees Sikhs rioting, killing and mur...

Each successive generation seems to be more western than the last. Funny how Indians ape the west when it comes to the vices, yet they don't ape the good things such as honesty, sincerity and cleanliness.

Hey, that's my line. I coined "Indians copy the vices but not the virtues."

If this is true, then a counter need to be launched and a boycott of all Italian products be called for.

Does that mean Sonia Gandhi will have to leave India?

I'm replying from work, so don't have much time, but here's the outline of my reply. Shiv's conclusion - based on anecdotes. Counter example: treatment of Sikhs when they wanted to settle in Canada in 1900s and in California. Canada imposed fees on immigrants (Chinese, Japanese, Indians), they could...
