Part 11: Week 4 Challenges - Senseless Sorting

Week 4 Challenges - Senseless Sorting

Challenge 8 - LP Sorting

Task: Sort hydrogen and oxygen atoms, without a sensor.
Goal: LEAST CYCLES
Tiebreaker is least symbols, then fastest time of solution submission.

Challenge 9 - Plutonium Separation

Task: Make a nuclear weapon. You're going to need large amounts of Uranium-235, or Plutonium. Uranium 235 is an isotope of natural uranium, present in the fraction of about 0.72% of uranium ore. Uranium is abundant, but separating U-235 from natural U-238 is really, really hard, though making a weapon from it is relatively easy. However SpaceChem doesn't do isotopes, so we're going to have to do with Plutonium. Formed from neutron bombardment of Uranium-238 (which decays into Plutonium-239 fairly quickly), it's much easier to separate Plutonium from Uranium via chemical and spacechemical methods. However making a bomb from Plutonium is fantastically difficult. Since both methods of making a nuclear bomb seemed equally difficult, the Manhattan Project decided to pursue both, and succeeded at both. I recommend this book for those interested in the science and history of the subject.
