Description

This course introduces the mathematical design and analysis of computer algorithms. Algorithm complexity, growth of functions, recurrences will be covered. Algorithm design techniques such as divide-and-conquer, dynamic programming and greediness will be introduced. Moreover, well known algorithms for e.g., sorting, searching, graph problems and computational geometry will be developed.
