Understanding Dynamic Programming

After greedy and divide and conquer, we will turn our attention to dynamic programming. Dynamic programming is an algorithm design paradigm that also attempts to solve optimization problems by combining solutions with subproblems. Unlike divide and conquer, subproblems need to exhibit optimal substructure for dynamic programming to be applicable.

Elements of a Dynamic Programming Problem

There are two key ingredients that an optimization problem must have for dynamic programming to be applicable: optimal substructure and overlapping subproblems.
