A guest lecture by Mr. Sanjeev Agarwal, Asst. Prof at MNIT, Jaipur, was held on 3 rd Oct 2011 on the topic “Cracking Logics In Programming Languages”. The lecture covered points such as what is the importance of logic building in programming and how to improve one’s grasp of it.
The lecture was similar to an interactive session with various logic puzzles with increasing levels of complexity and how to solve them by using simple algorithms as well as how to look at these logic puzzle in different ways so that as to simplify the algorithms for solving the puzzles.
A huge reservoir of resources was also presented to us in the form of online tools, resources, and blogs along with a handful of books to help augment the learning process. The lecture was very useful and inspired a lot of the students to look for innovative and efficient ways to solve problems. The students especially enjoyed the intriguing puzzles and finding ways to solve them.
