PyMalta: Optimal number of Pizza Slices Challenge

• What we'll do
Ever wondered what the optimal way to slice a pizza is? Google wonder about it too - in fact they released this as their test problem for their upcoming Google HashCode competition in March.

During our next meetup we'll be foregoing talks and instead leveraging the power of Python to take on the optimal pizza slice algorithm problem either individually or as a group. We look forward to see what novel solutions we can generate for this problem, maybe even take it as an opportunity to present it as a talk in one of our future meetups.

• Experience Required
The problem can be solved with any level of experience and is typically based on a real life engineering problem, simply "reskinned" to be easier to understand. Pythonistas of any experience level are welcome, even if you just want to watch more experienced ones try to solve it!
