Poppin' Bottles

You've just been hired at Lighthouse Markets, a reputable (and thoroughly fictional) grocery store chain. One of the primary features of Lighthouse Markets is their recycling program on pop bottles. Here is how the program works:

• For every two empty bottles, you can get one free (full) bottle of pop
• For every four bottle caps, you can get one free (full) bottle of pop
• Each bottle of pop costs $2 to purchase

Given these parameters, write a program so that you can figure out how many total bottles of pop can be redeemed given a customer investment.

Scaladays Keynotes

Scala 2.12 is the new big thing! It has 33 near features, but more importantly it contains optimizations for Java 8 using Java 8 language features such as lambdas and default methods, while still being backwards compatible with Java 6.

Scala 2.13 more focused on improving scala’s built-in libraries, including the collections library. Particularly, it will become more inline with spark collections and more have more robust lazy collection support. There are also plans to separate Scala into a core and platform module.

Neat things happening with Scala:

• Scala.js
• Scala native

/* Small script for edge contraction of graphs. I was reading about 
randomised algorithms, which led to Karger's algorithm for finding 
min-cut of a graph, which led to reading about graphs and cutsets,
and then wanting to find out how graphs and edge contraction can be 
represented in code...

To run, just do `node edge-contraction.js` */
