According to legend, Sissa Ben Dahir invented the game of chess which impressed King Shirham so much he offered him the reward of his choosing. Sissa Ben Dahir requested one grain on the first square, two grains on the second square, four on the third, eight on the fourth, and kept the pattern for all sixty-four squares. The king accepted and granted Sissa Ben Dahir his wish.. Can you find an ordering of all the n-bit strings in such a way that . two consecutive n-bit strings differed by only one bit?.

Proof Techniques and Chessboard Problems Graph Terms (informal) Independent Set : (packing, anti-clique): a set of nonadjacent vertices Dominating Set : (covering): a set of vertices that together are adjacent to all the other vertices. The chess and checkers board can be made of the most diverse materials, of different colours and sizes. Why is this board used all over the world? What is the story? Where is it born?
Well, sure thing: the chessboard is old. Too old. Like the vast majority of historical board games, its origin lies in the darkness of legends and myths. If you\'re ready to learn the secrets of the chessboard, it\'s time to get comfortable, have your pieces at hand and start reading. Gets difficult. The first or second? Or both? . USE THE MAIN HEURISTICS: Compute probability of the opposite event. . P(song never played after k presses) = P(not after 1)*P(not after 2)…. = . (1 - 1/N) * (1 - 1/N)*… = (1 - 1/N)^k. Thus, P(k) = 1 - (1 - 1/N)^k .
