There was a discussion in the IRC channel a while back where Short Circuit noted that a lot of RC traffic comes from corresponding wikipedia articles. He has asked me to come up with a list of algorithms for which we want tasks. We would want a solid explanation and a starting implementation for these tasks. I have collected a bunch of algorithms from [[wp:List of algorithms|this list]] that probably belong here (any item from that list is probably good to have though):
*Sorting algorithms
Line 21 ⟶ 25:
::* Pollard's p − 1 algorithm
::* Pollard's rho algorithm
::* [[Prime decomposition|prime factorization algorithm]]
::* Quadratic sieve
::* Special number field sieve
*Numerical algorithms
:* Nth roots
::*[[Nth root algorithm]]
::*Shifitng nth root algorithm
:*Interpolation (linear and cubic are probably enough)
