Study Notes
Algorithms Fundamentals
- Algorithms can be constructed using three primary concepts: sequencing, selection, and iteration.
- Sequencing refers to executing specific steps in a precise order.
Example of Sequencing
- A daily routine serves as a clear example of sequencing, as it comprises a set order of actions: wake up, brush teeth, get dressed, etc.
Robot Path Algorithm
- Repeating sequences in algorithms can yield similar paths. A nested repeat structure can be restructured for simplification without changing outcomes.
Optimization Problems
- Minimizing distances, such as in designing a bus system, is known as an optimization problem. It aims to enhance efficiency in problem-solving.
Algorithm Modification
- To adapt an algorithm for finding the smallest element in a list, specific modifications are required in the lines of code that determine the target value. Adjustments in line execution logic will facilitate this change.
