Algorithms #

A step by step way to solve a task, is called an algorithm.

Data structure #

A container where data is arranged for fast access (whatever requirements), is called a data structure.

Stack #

Real world usage:

  1. Undo/redo operation

Petrol pumps and blasts, with inflammable roads #

This Dijkstra’s algorithm.

Q1: Among all the topics of DS and A, what percentage do you/scaler teach in an intuitive way, like Blasts-and-Petrol? Like among the ~30 topics, how many? A: If a particular lecture has less attendance, then they try to make it intuitive.

Q2: Did you verify that blasts analogy really holds for the algorithm? A: Yes, but he does do a raw version, and makes clear the differences between blast analogy

Q3: Did you verify that blasts analogy really holds for the algorithm? A: Yes, but he does do a raw version, and makes clear the differences between blast analogy

Q4: Did you verify that blasts analogy really holds for the algorithm? A: Collections will be covered in the course.
