Binary Search
Binary Search is a highly efficient algorithm for searching a sorted array or list. Unlike linear search, which checks each element one by one, binary search divides the problem in half with every iteration, making it logarithmic in nature. This reduces the time complexity significantly to O(log n), making it ideal for large datasets. How…

Dynamic Programming
Dynamic Programming (DP) is an optimization technique used to solve complex problems by breaking them down into simpler subproblems. It’s especially effective for problems involving overlapping subproblems and optimal substructure. The fundamental idea behind DP is to store the results of subproblems to avoid redundant computations, significantly improving efficiency, particularly in problems with exponential time…
