Wednesday Meeting - Dynamic Programming |
{{ page.date | date: '%B %d, %Y' }}
This Wednesday, November 16, Dr. Hoyer will be teaching a session on
dynamic programming.
Dynamic programming problems are quite prevalent in both programming
contests and in technical interviews at companies like Facebook, Google,
Microsoft, etc., so having a good understanding will make you really stand
out.
To give perspective, there were two dynamic programming problems in the last
ACPC, and the top 3 teams were the ones who were able to solve those problems.
Understanding how to solve these problems might make the difference between
placing 15th and in the top 3.
