Pascal's Triangle
This lesson discusses another problem that falls under the paradigm of divide and conquer algorithms: Pascal's triangle.
We'll cover the following...
Pascal’s triangle
Pascal’s triangle is a triangular array of binomial coefficients. To make the triangle, we start with a “1” at the top and then keep on placing numbers in the subsequent rows below to make a triangular pattern. Each number in the row is obtained by adding the numbers directly above it.
Illustration:
Here is a visual presentation of how entries in Pascal’s triangle are calculated:
As can be seen here, each number in a row is obtained by adding together the numbers right above it. For instance, 6
in row 5 is ...
