Thursday morning, I saw the problems and took a printout of the Flyswatter. Then I spent about 3 hours figuring out the right area calculations, without success.
Then I tried hacking away at the other 2 problems for a total of 1.75 hours. Again failed.
Result: A total brain burnout
Feeling: Really down for my not so leet algorithmic skills.
Lesson learned: I seriously need 4 years of formal computer science education.
Try the "How to Design Programs" textbook, available for free at htdp.org. It's not so much about algorithms, but it's about learning how to methodically tackle programming problems, which sounds like what you really need.
