Challenge: The 0/1 Knapsack Problem
Explore the 0 1 knapsack problem to understand dynamic programming techniques. Learn to approach this classic coding interview challenge by developing solutions that maximize profit without exceeding weight capacity. This lesson guides you through a step-by-step problem-solving method to prepare you for real interview scenarios.
We'll cover the following...
Welcome to your first dynamic programming problem! Remember to work your way up to the correct solution. It might help to think of the brute force solution first, then memoize it or tabulate it. The process of coming up with a solution to a problem like this would be similar in a real interview. Remember, you can discuss it with your interviewer and talk out loud while you’re implementing the solution. Good luck!
