We have a scale and 7 balls. 1 ball is heavier than all the
rest. How to determine the heaviest ball with only 3
possible weighing attempts?

Answer Posted / simon y

Sorry guys, you failed the interview, and you got the
question wrong. It is what is the least number of
weighings - the answer is 2 not 3.
1) Take 2 random groups of 3 balls, compare them. If they
are the same you got lucky - the heavier ball is the one
you didn't weigh. If they are different you need step 2
2) Take the 3 heavier balls from weighing 1) and randomly
compare 2 of them. If one is heavier, that is the hevier
ball - if tehy are the same, then the one you didn't weigh
is the heavy one.

This program numbers the lines found in a text file. Write a program that reads text from a file and outputs each line preceded by a line number. Print the line number right-adjusted in a field of 3 spaces. Follow the line number with a colon, then one space, then the text of the line. You should get a character at a time and write code to ignore leading blanks on each line. You may assume that the lines are short enough to fit within a line on the screen. Otherwise, allow default printer or screen output behavior if the line is too long (i.e., wrap or truncate). A somewhat harder version determines the number of spaces needed in the field for the line numbers by counting lines before processing the lines of the file. This version of the program should insert a new line after the last complete word that will fit within a 72-character line.
