Step-by-step walkthroughs of classic DP problems
Focus on optimizing problem-solving with DP techniques like memoization and recursion
Practical challenges to apply DP skills and reinforce learning
This course is ideal for developers, students, and anyone looking to master dynamic programming techniques for solving computational problems efficiently. Basic programming knowledge is required, but no prior experience with DP is necessary.
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Dynamic Programming (DP), starting with fundamental concepts like recursion and memoization. You’ll learn how DP can transform brute-force solutions into efficient algorithms, solving problems such as the Staircase Problem and Share Market Problem. By building a solid foundation, you’ll tackle progressively challenging problems, including the Longest Increasing Subsequence (LIS) and Longest Common Subsequence (LCS), all while mastering key DP techniques.
Throughout the course, you'll apply DP to a wide range of problems, from maximizing profit in stock trading to calculating unique paths on a grid. You'll explore specialized DP patterns, such as the LIS and LCS patterns, for handling sequence and string-related problems, and learn how to solve matrix and tree-based challenges like path sums and binary tree robberies.
By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped with the tools to solve real-world problems with DP, optimizing time complexity and mastering problem-solving techniques that can be applied across multiple domains. Whether you’re aiming to improve algorithmic skills or preparing for coding interviews, this course offers both theory and practical examples to deepen your understanding of dynamic programming.
