Security experts from Microsoft, Symantec and a host of other organizations including the NSA have compiled a list of the most dangerous software programming errors. The list shifts the focus of ...

In this month’s TIOBE Programming Community Index, the top 10 programming languages list rankings have stayed steady since November. However, according to the index’s ranking system, Python ...

Such algorithms are often quite efficient and provide useful bounds on the optimal solutions. The learning will be supported by instructor provided notes, readings from textbooks and assignments.

An algorithm, after all, is not a computer program. It’s a structured procedure, a kind of recipe. (Algorithms are named after a 9th-century Persian mathematician, Al-Khwārizmī, but they ...

A dirty dozen of software development pitfalls—and how to avoid these all-too-common programming blunders.

Create divide and conquer, dynamic programming, and greedy algorithms. Understand intractable problems, P vs NP and the use of integer programming solvers to tackle some of these problems. Course ...

Dynamic programming algorithms are a good place to start understanding what's really going on inside computational biology software. The heart of many well-known programs is a dynamic programming ...

Dynamic programming (DP) algorithms have become indispensable in computational biology, addressing problems that range from sequence alignment and phylogenetic inference to RNA secondary structure ...
