I think the idea behind 2.19 was that while the recursive solution doesn't have to be too bad, there is no iterative solution to the coin-change problem which isn't an eyesore. But I guess I wasn't clear; I'm getting most of my questions from http://icampustutor.csail.mit.edu/6.001-public/ - which is all about bite-sized questions perfect for Mnemosyne. The SICP text isn't too great on its own for that, assuming you don't care about number theory and bits of trivia for testing primality. (As an aside, I believe anyone doing SICP should use all the tests on that site, and also watch the video. The experience is partial otherwise.) -- gwern --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "mnemosyne-proj-users" group.
