Difference between Algorithm and Flowchart Slno. Algorithm Flowchart 01. A method of representing thestep-by-step logical procedure for solving a problem. Flowchart is pictorial representation of an algorithm. It is constructed using different types of boxes and symbols. 02. It describes step-by-stepdescriptions and each step represents a particular operation leading to Read more…
Analysis of Algorithm The field of computer science, which studies efficiency of algorithms, is known as analysis of algorithms. The time and space used by the algorithm(M) are the two main measures for the efficiency of an algorithm. The analysis of algorithms can be evaluated by a variety of criteria. Read more…
Complexity of Algorithm The complexity of an algorithm(M) is the function f(n) which gives the running time and/or storage space requirement of the algorithm in terms of the size(n) of the input data. Mostly, the storage space required by an algorithm is simply a multiple of the data size(n). Generally, Read more…

Introduction The Branch and Bound algorithm is a powerful technique for solving optimization problems that has been successfully applied to a wide range of problems. Its effectiveness/performance depends on the quality of the bounds used to prune the search space, as well as the problem’s structure of the problem being Read more…
Introduction It is one of the very important types of algorithms. Definition Backtracking is a general algorithmic technique that is used to solve a wide range of problems, including combinatorial optimization problems, constraint satisfaction problems, and other problems that involve finding a solution among a large set of possible solutions. Read more…
Introduction The dynamic Programming method is a famous algorithmic principle used widely in several applications. Definition Dynamic programming is a technique for solving complex problems by breaking them down into smaller & simpler sub-problems and solving each sub-problem only once, saving the results in a table and reusing them when Read more…
Introduction The greedy principle is an algorithm design paradigm in which the algorithm makes the locally optimal choice at each step in the hope of finding a globally optimal solution. Definition The greedy principle is a heuristic algorithmic technique in computer science where an optimal solution is reached by making Read more…
Introduction The divide and conquer principle is a fundamental algorithm design paradigm in computer science. Definition The divide and conquer principle is a common algorithmic technique used to solve problems by breaking them down into smaller sub-problems, solving each sub-problem independently, and combining the solutions of the sub-problems to form Read more…
