Such algorithms are often quite efficient and provide useful bounds on the optimal solutions. The learning will be supported by instructor provided notes, readings from textbooks and assignments.

It covers basic algorithm design techniques such as divide and conquer, dynamic programming, and greedy algorithms. It concludes with a brief introduction to intractability (NP-completeness) .

In his book, The Art of Computer Programming, Donald Knuth describes algorithms as a confusing word. Learning about algorithms, it’s easy to agree with this description.
