Task 1: Smallest non-prime Euclid number
The numbers formed by adding one to the products of the smallest primes are called the Euclid Numbers (see wiki). Write a script that finds the smallest Euclid Number that is not prime. This challenge was proposed by Laurent Rosenfeld.
Task 2: Common directory
Write a script that finds the common directory path, given a collection of paths and directory separator. For example, if the following paths are supplied.
/a/b/c/d
/a/b/cd
/a/b/cc
/a/b/c/d/e
and the path separator is /. Your script should return /a/b as common directory path.
Task 3: Synonyms API
Find out the synonyms of a given word using the Synonyms API. The API challenge is optional but would love to see your solution.
Last date to submit the solution 6 pm (UK Time) Sunday 16th June 2019.
