Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Design a dynamic programming algorithm to solve the knapsack problem. Outline the steps and structure the solution clearly.
💡 Hint: Consider how you would break the problem down recursively before optimizing.
Question 2
Can you present a case where a greedy algorithm fails and dynamic programming succeeds? Describe the situation and why.
💡 Hint: Analyze examples where local optimums lead to suboptimal solutions in broader contexts.
