If an egg is dropped and does not break it is undamaged and can be dropped again.
Floor eggs recursion problem.
A building has 100 floors.
The aim is to find out the highest floor from which an egg will not break when dropped out of a window from that floor.
If the egg breaks then any greater fall would have broken it as well.
The two egg problem problem.
When you drop an egg from any floor of the building the egg will either break or it will survive the fall.
You are given n floor and k eggs.
So the problem reduces to x 1 floors and n 1 eggs.
The effect of a fall is the same for all eggs.
Recursive equation n eggs k floors getdrops n k given n eggs and k floor building minimum of drops to determine the floor from which egg.
You have a 100 story building and two eggs.
Egg dropping using recursion problem statement.
A broken egg must be discarded.
Egg dropping refers to a class of problems in which it is important to find the correct response without exceeding a low number of certain failure states.
So problem is reduced to n eggs and k x floors.
The physical properties of the ideal egg is such that it will shatter if it is dropped from floor n n n or above and will have no.
So problem is reduced is n 1 eggs and x 1 floors.
In this article we are going to implement a c program to solve the egg dropping problem using dynamic programming dp.
If an egg breaks when dropped then it would break if dropped from a higher floor.
In a toy example there is a tower of n n n floors and an egg dropper with m m m ideal eggs.
If the egg breaks after dropping from xth floor then we only need to check for floors lower than x with remaining eggs as some floor should exist lower than x in which egg would not break.
Let s talk about the 2 egg problem courtesy of interview cake.
You are given two eggs and access to a 100 storey building both eggs are identical.
One of the floors is the highest floor an egg can be dropped from without breaking.
An egg that survives a fall can be used again.
You are given n floor and k eggs you have to minimize the number of times you have to drop the eggs to find the critical floor where critical floor means the floor beyond which eggs start to break.
If egg does not break check the floors higher than x floors with all the n eggs are remaining.
