Algorithms and Data Structures Tutorial- Full Course for Beginners
freeCodeCamp.org
This is a full-length course from treehouse. Free code camp is a non-
profit making this course freely available on our youtube channel.
We will learn these concepts by using well-known algorithms in this
course we will also be writing code. This course is less about specific
algorithms and more about the tools you will need to evaluate
algorithms. An algorithm is a set of steps or instructions for
completing a task. The field of computer science has identified
several that do the job well for a given task. Understanding
algorithms is not just knowing that an algorithm exists but
understanding when to apply it requires properly understanding the
problem at hand. Learning about algorithms gives you a deeper
understanding about complexity and efficiency in programming. The
course will focus on some of the tools and concepts you'll need to be
aware of before we can dive into the topic of algorithms if you're
ready we 're going to try and cultivate together as we work through
our content.
John and britney took the same amount of turns to find the answer
to the number they were looking for. When the answer was three
they both took the same number of turns this is important when the
number was larger but not much larger 10 in this case we start to
see that britney strategy did better she took four tries while john
took 10. John and brittany took turns to find the answer when the
number was 5. When the answer was 100 it took him 20 times the
amount of tries to get that answer compared to britney. The speed
at which the result was obtained differed between john
and brittany and britney in the game. The two strategies britney and
john used were examples of search more specifically these are
search algorithms. The strategy john took where he started at the
beginning of the range and just counted one number after the other
is a type of search called linear search. linear search is a search
algorithm and we can use it in the real world for example i could tell
you to walk into a bookstore and find me a particular book using the
linear search algorithm.
An algorithm definition must contain a specific set of instructions in
a particular order. Each step must not be a complex one and needs
to be explicitly clear. The last guideline is that the algorithm should
