this is the recursive approach. slow with even small numbers TODO: iterative approach

this is a pascal's triangle

1: 1 2: 1 1 3: 1 2 1 4: 1 3 3 1 5: 1 4 6 4 1 6: 1 5 10 10 5 1

6, 6 = 1 6, 1 = 1 6, 2 = 5 1, 1 = 1

write a procedure that computes the elements recursively

  (define (pascals row num)
    (if (or (= row num) (= num 1) (= row 1))
	1
	(+ (pascals (- row 1) (- num 1))
	   (pascals (- row 1) num))))
  (pascals 6 4)

(define (* a b) (if (= b 0) 0 (+ a (* a (- b 1)))))

  (define (double a)
    (mul a 2))
  (define (halve a)
    (/ a 2))

find the lowest common divisor of 199, 1999, 19999

  (define (smallest-divisor n)
    (find-divisor n 2))
  (define (find-divisor n test-divisor)
    (cond ((> (square test-divisor) n) n)
	  ((divides? test-divisor n) test-divisor)
	  (else (find-divisor n (+ test-divisor 1)))))
  (define (divides? a b)
    (= (remainder b a) 0))

  (smallest-divisor 199)
  (smallest-divisor 1999)

linear fibbonacci

alluded to in the lecture, find a fast fibb computation

  (define (fib n)
    (fib-iter n 0 1 0))
  (define (fib-iter n count sum last-sum)
    (if (= count n)
	last-sum
	(fib-iter n (1+ count) (+ sum last-sum) sum)))
  (fib 10)

this is the linear version of the tree reversal from the lecture for this version, space = O(1) time = O(n)

the version in the lecture has time O(fib(n)) calculating the 10th elem, O(fib(n)): 55 vs O(n): 10
