Unconventional Approaches to Dynamic Programming Optimization
DP optimization often feels like an arcane art. The question arises: can anyone actually devise such solutions during a programming contest? (Perhaps I'm still learning this skill.)
The core ideas I've encountered fall into these categories:
When transitioning from state i to i+1, the number of states that change is small, so we can inherit val ...
