This project considers the problem of calculating primes as a sorting problem. It includes the most efficient tree-based sorting algorithm that is possible and shows that finding a new prime can be done by sorting the differences between the previous primes in the right way. Unfortunately it has turned out that going this way is even more slowly than trying to find primes by brute force. So it can only be used as a test with heavy load for the sorting algorithm, which can be used for...

Simple UI to test the effectiveness of a heuristic algorithm against the brute force method for path finding among an arbitrary number of arbitrarily placed points on a grid. This is an educational project, don't expect new and better methods.

CryptoHelper is a Java program designed to aid in the decryption of classical ciphers, ie pre WWII ciphers. It brings together tools like frequency analysis, friedman tests, enciphering/deciphering for several clasical ciphers, and brute force algorithm
