It's also known as the celebrity problem. The question is who is the one in a party who is known by other people but no one knows him?
It turns out that there is O(n) solution for this problem. (The n^2 solution is rather trivial) I was able to think it through.
Good. Sounds like I can check away another problem of CLRS.
This is my self-study page for the book, "Introduction to Algorithm", or commonly known as CLRS. This is also my diary page of how I struggle and grow in the programming world. I hope this blog can help amateurs or professionals, to improve their skills in programming, learning and living. As of Sep 12, 2011, I finished the "exercise read" of Chapter 2 (20110518) and 3 (20110608) and half of Chapter 4.

Chapter 21 : Disjoint Set
Quickly browse it once. Except Chapter 21.4 which involved the proof of union rank heuristics, it is not a very difficult chapter to read.
I like this, may be I will read in leisure of the chapters in graph as well. There are around 20% of the Data Structure required understanding of the graph algorithms.
