Dynamic Programming
... time the sub problem is encountered. Dynamic programming is typically applied to optimization problems. What is an optimization problem? There can be may possible solutions. Each solution has a value and We wish to find a solution with the optimal (minimum or maximum) value ...

Here is a factoring algorithm that one of my students, Jay Patel
... Suppose P ( r ) 0 . Since we know ( x r ) is a factor, P ( x ) ( x r )(Q ( x )) , where degree of Q ( x ) is one less than the degree of P ( x ) . We will use the reverse of the distributive property to factor P ( x ) . P ( x ) pn x n pn1 x n1 pn2 x n2 .. p0 ( x r )(qn1 x ...

A new algorithm for column addition
... whole column be done in one pass without interruptions, because partial sums have to be remembered. So its difficulty increases when more numbers are added. The new algorithm requires only that individual modules be computed without interruption. The most common modules contain only two digits, and ...
