So, what's your favourite sport or game??

 

1) Obviously karate (eventually tae-kwon do, kung-fu)...

Favorite kick tobi yoko geri kekomi..

eventually ushiro mawashi keage/geri jodan.

 

Some says "in healthy body healthy spirit"..

 

2) Chess (I even made my own in 3D OpenGL, it's one of the beautiful computer chess game ever made)

 

3) Scrabble (I even made two my own apps for cheating in this game).

 

4) does computer game also count?

Counter-Strike (in the past),

Counter-Strike: Source..

3) Scrabble (I even made two my own apps for cheating in this game).

 

Small clarification. Because above post sounded like support of cheating. (sorry for off-topic)

Anagramator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anagram

is very often IT homework exercise. Because it is very demanding to write for students.

Minimum usable implementation requires making alphabetically sorted dictionary of words (with f.e. 3 mln words),

with f.e. binary-search algorithm to efficiently find word in dictionary.

App should create as many threads as cores/HT. And search the all possible to make combinations of words from supplied by user letters.

Advanced implementation can use GFX card 1024+ cores, programmed through f.e. CUDA/OpenCL.

7 letters (English alphabet) is more than 8 billions of combinations to check. I recommend making it as exercise.

 

ps. If chess, scrabble, or other intellectual game is considered "game",

programming computers could also be considered a game..

f.e. "who will make the most efficient x=sqrt( double y) implementation." (eventually sin/cos/tan/ctg/asin/acos/atg/actg etc. etc. )

Mathematicians and programmers competing each other to get $1m prize, every year, with their own, more and more optimized implementations of algorithm.

 

ps2. Do you see you need precisely define what is "sport" and "game".. ? For intellectual persons game doesn't necessarily mean the same what it means for you..
