Learning objectives
- Explain Divide-and-Conquer and Dynamic Programming as General Strategies in the language of the current curriculum, not just the source book.
- Apply Divide-and-Conquer and Dynamic Programming as General Strategies to one concrete learner task or example inside this semester.
- Use
discrete-mathematics-and-its-applications,how-to-solve-it-by-computers,mathematics-for-computer-scienceas a selective source of truth when the learner-facing explanation is not enough.
Prerequisites
- The earlier concept pages and practice tasks in the current module.
