Algorithmic maths thinking

 Algorithmic thinking task. In order to keep the length of your text messages to a minimum, you use these rules: * remove all spaces; * remove all vowels (a, e, i, o, u); * replace double letters with single letters. For example, the message “good morning” would be sent as “gdmrng” – a saving of six characters (1 space, 4 vowels, 1 double letter), which is 50%. 1. How many characters do you save by applying the rules to this message? “A good sense of rhythm is needed to play your violin well” 2. Devise a short message where the rules will save a high proportion of the characters. The message must be at least five words long. Explain the strategies you used to make a message where the three rules save a high proportion of the characters. Explain how you attempted both parts of the algorithmic thinking task and how you felt about it. Comment on how the task may relate to the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics, especially the Proficiency Strands.
