Interview question #3

I came out with another interview question to find out the candidate's visualizing power:

The object is chessboard--you know it has black and white squares.
  1. How will you visualize the chessboard in terms of mathematical formula?
  2. How will you visualize/depict the same in PHP code?

Thanks lawrence krubner for your comments. Actually, I'll be expecting just two keywords: Matrix and two dimensional array; that's all. I don't expect any brilliant answer:-)

"\n"; } else { fputs ($fp, $command . "\r\n\r\n"); $result = ''; while (!feof($fp)) { $result .= fgets ($fp, 128); } fclose ($fp); } return $result; } //debug... echo whois('whois.internic.net', 'php.net'); ?> Re...

How girls ruin...?

மது, à®®ாது, சூது (liquor, girl, crookedness) - Tamil tantras list down one's reason for fall/collapse. In recent times, I'm hearing many relational breakups and personal collapse due to "girl".
