Every graph can be optimally colored greedily. I was at a conference today and someone said that if the graph $G$ has chromatic number $n$ then there is a way to order the vertices so that coloring greedily gives us a...
Start from a coloring, you label the vertices increasingly by color: the vertices colored by color 1 are the first vertices in the list, then the vertices colored by color 2 are next and so on. Now, if you do a greedy coloring, you can prove that you get (a possibly new) coloring of this graph. You ...

Why isn't sed greedy in this simple case? $echo "foo 65 bar" | sed -n -e 's/.*\([0-9]\+\).*/\1/p' 5 Why is the output not `65`? Shouldn't sed greedily match the `[0-9]\+` part? How do I tell sed to match all...
The `.*` is greedy first -- it's matching `foo 6`. The only reason it stops there is because matching any further would stop the whole pattern from matching, so it leaves the `5` for the `([0-9]+)`. If you made it `([0-9]*)` instead the `.*` would match the whole line and you'd get nothing in your g...

SGI algorithm
Triangles are greedily added to a strip until no triangle is available that can be appended to the strip; a new strip will be started in this case.

Bash parameter expansion - greedy versus non-greedy It's a bit of a contrived example but here goes: Say I have a variable `1.2.3.4` containing version information and need to replace the `.4` at the end with `.5` ...
Not in general but easily in this case: shopt -s extglob echo ${version/%+([0-9])/} 1.2.3.

How to come up with a greedy solution and prove it? Say we have a function $S(x)$, which gives the sum of the digits in the number $x$. So $S(452)$ would be $4 + 5 + 2 = 11$. Given a number $x$, find two integers $a...
Show the following two statements (I guess they would be lemmas): 1. When adding $a+b$ the way you learn in school, if you get no carries, then $S(a+b)=S(a)+S(b)$ 2. For each carry you get when adding $a+b$, the sum $S(a)+S(b)$ increases by $9$. Together they mean that you want to have as many carri...

Picking set not containing any specified subset Let $A$ be a subset of size $n$, and let $A_1,\ldots,A_m$ be $3$-element subsets of $A$, any two of which share no more than one element. Prove that there exists $B\subs...
A greedy algorithm works here. Keep adding elements to $B$ any way you like until you can't continue. Therefore let $B$ be a subset of $A$ that meets the requirements and is maximal for inclusion. Let $p$ be the number of elements in $B$. Since $B$ is maximal for inclusion, every one of the $n-p$ el...
