Dell = VMware => Broadcom

Chipmaker Broadcom to buy cloud services firm VMware in $61 billion deal - CNN

Chipmaker Broadcom (AVGO) is buying cloud services provider VMware (VMW) in a cash-and-stock deal valued at $61 billion to speed up its expansion into the enterprise software business.

Software became a substantial part of Broadcom's business after it acquired CA Technologies for $18.9 billion in 2018 and Symantec's security division for $10.7 billion in 2019.

Why?

Because "Broadcom" is not really a chip maker, it is mostly a "brand name" used by technology investors... a successor of HP...

math, code: Knight's tour

Knight's tour - Wikipedia

A knight's tour is a sequence of moves of a knight on a chessboard such that the knight visits every square exactly once. If the knight ends on a square that is one knight's move from the beginning square (so that it could tour the board again immediately, following the same path), the tour is closed (or re-entrant); otherwise, it is open.

The knight's tour problem is the mathematical problem of finding a knight's tour. Creating a program to find a knight's tour is a common problem given to computer science students.
