Title: "The C++ Crash Course"

[INTRO]

Jerry's apartment - Jerry, George, and Elaine are sitting on the couch, casually chatting. Kramer bursts in, waving a flyer.

Kramer: "Hey, you guys, check this out! There's a coding competition happening in the city, and the winner gets an all-expenses-paid trip to Hawaii!"

George: "Hawaii? I've always wanted to go there!"

Jerry: "Yeah, me too. But we don't know how to code."

Elaine: "Speak for yourself, Jerry. I know advanced Python!"

Kramer: "Well, the competition's in C++. We gotta learn it fast!"

[LESSON 1: Basic Syntax and Differences]

Jerry's apartment - The gang is sitting around the table with laptops.

Elaine: "Alright, first things first, let's install a C++ compiler."

George: "What's a compiler?"

Elaine: "It's like a translator that turns our code into something the computer understands."

After they install the necessary software, they begin comparing Python and C++ syntax.

Elaine: "In Python, we use colons and indentation to define blocks of code. In C++, we use curly braces."

Kramer: "I like curly braces; they're fun to draw!"

[LESSON 2: Data Types and Variables]

Elaine teaches them about basic data types, like ints, floats, and chars.

Jerry: "In Python, we don't have to declare variables, but in C++, we do. It's more strict!"

George: "Just like my mother..."

[LESSON 3: Pointers and Memory Management]

Elaine: "One of the big differences between Python and C++ is how they handle memory. In C++, we have more control over memory using pointers."

Kramer: "Like the laser pointers I use to mess with cats?"

Elaine: "Not quite. Pointers store memory addresses."

George: "I can barely remember my own address!"

[LESSON 4: Classes and Inheritance]

Elaine introduces Object-Oriented Programming and explains how to define classes and create objects in C++.

Jerry: "So, it's like creating a blueprint for a building!"

Elaine: "Exactly! And inheritance is when one class takes on the properties of another class."

George: "Like inheriting money?"

Elaine: "More like inheriting features, but sure."

[LESSON 5: Templates and the Standard Template Library (STL)]

Elaine: "C++ has something called templates, which are like Python's generic types. They allow us to create functions and classes that work with any data type."

Kramer: "One size fits all, I like it!"

Elaine also introduces the Standard Template Library (STL), which provides ready-made functions and data structures for common tasks.

[THE COMPETITION]

The gang arrives at the competition, armed with their newfound C++ knowledge.

Announcer: "The challenge is to create a program that simulates the behavior of a group of animals in a virtual zoo!"

Kramer: "I've got it! Let's use inheritance for different types of animals and the STL to manage the virtual zoo!"

The gang works together to create their program, making use of their C++ skills. As the competition comes to a close, they submit their project.

Announcer: "And the winner is... Team Seinfeld!"

The gang cheers and high-fives each other, excited for their upcoming trip to Hawaii.

[ENDING]

Jerry's apartment - The gang is packing for their trip.

Jerry: "Well, we did it. We learned C++ and won the competition!"

Elaine: "And now we're off to Hawaii

Title: "The Quest for the Algorithm"

[INTRO]

Jerry's apartment - The gang is gathered around the table, looking at a flyer.

Elaine: "Guys, I found another coding competition! This time, it's about creating an efficient algorithm to solve a complex problem."

George: "But we just learned C++! Can't we take a break?"

Jerry: "Come on, George! It'll be fun! And the prize is a luxury cruise!"

Kramer: "A cruise?! I'm in!"

[LESSON 1: Functions and Recursion]

Elaine: "To create an efficient algorithm, we need to understand functions and recursion."

Jerry: "You mean, like, calling ourselves?"

Elaine: "Sort of. A function is a block of code that performs a specific task. Recursion is when a function calls itself."

She writes a simple recursive function to calculate the factorial of a number.

cpp
#include <iostream>

int factorial(int n) {
    if (n <= 1) {
        return 1;
    }
    return n * factorial(n - 1);
}

int main() {
    int num = 5;
    std::cout << "Factorial of " << num << " is: " << factorial(num) << std::endl;
    return 0;
}

George: "Wow, it's like a never-ending loop!"

Elaine: "Not quite, George. There's always a base case to stop the recursion."

[LESSON 2: Divide and Conquer]

Elaine introduces the divide and conquer technique, using the merge sort algorithm as an example.

cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

void merge(std::vector<int>& arr, int left, int mid, int right) {
    int i = left, j = mid + 1, k = 0;
    std::vector<int> temp(right - left + 1);

    while (i <= mid && j <= right) {
        if (arr[i] <= arr[j]) {
            temp[k++] = arr[i++];
        } else {
            temp[k++] = arr[j++];
        }
    }

    while (i <= mid) {
        temp[k++] = arr[i++];
    }

    while (j <= right) {
        temp[k++] = arr[j++];
    }

    for (i = left; i <= right; i++) {
        arr[i] = temp[i - left];
    }
}

void mergeSort(std::vector<int>& arr, int left, int right) {
    if (left < right) {
        int mid = left + (right - left) / 2;
        mergeSort(arr, left, mid);
        mergeSort(arr, mid + 1, right);
        merge(arr, left, mid, right);
    }
}

int main() {
    std::vector<int> arr = {9, 4, 7, 1, 5, 3};
    mergeSort(arr, 0, arr.size() - 1);

    for (int i = 0; i < arr.size(); i++) {
        std::cout << arr[i] << " ";
    }

    return 0;
}

Kramer: "So we're breaking the problem into smaller pieces, solving them, and combining the results! That's genius!"

[LESSON 3: Dynamic Programming]

Elaine explains dynamic programming, a technique to solve problems by breaking them down into overlapping subproblems and storing the results.

She demonstrates the technique using the Fibonacci sequence.

cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <vector>

int fibonacci(int n, std::vector<int>& memo) {
    if (memo[n] == -
