Bottom-Up Algorithms: Dynamic
Programming

In this section we consider a bottom-up algorithmic paradigm called dynamic programming . In order to solve a given problem, a series of subproblems is solved. The series of subproblems is devised carefully in such a way that each subsequent solution is obtained by combining the solutions to one or more of the subproblems that have already been solved. All intermediate solutions are kept in a table in order to prevent unnecessary duplication of effort.
