Elastic Collision in a Pool Game

A range of video games use elastic collision formulas to predict the change of velocity of two objects when a collision occurs. Elastic collision occurs when two objects are colliding and the total kinetic energy of the two objects remains

The Monty Hall Problem

The Monty Hall problem is a counter-intuitive brain teaser based on probabilities. This puzzle is named after Monty Hall, the TV presenter of “Let’s Make a Deal”, an American TV show (known as “Deal or No Deal” in the UK)

Denary to Binary Conversion Algorithm

In this challenge, we are going to write al algorithm to convert a decimal (aka Denary) number between 0 and 255 into binary using 1 Byte (=8 bits). Before attempting this challenge you may practise your denary to binary conversion:

Software Crosswords

A computer system consists of both hardware (the physical components of the computer) and software: the programs that run on this hardware. There are three main categories of software: Operating Systems: software that controls the computer hardware: The operating system
