Today's Goal

 

Example Problems from Last Lecture

 

Homework: Find Commonalities in Problems

 

Polynomial Problems and Exponential Problems

(the time complexity of a problem is the lowest time complexity among the algorithms that solve the problem, or the lowest theoretical time complexity)

 

Properties of Polynomial Time

(or why is polynomial time so special)

The set of problems that can be solved in polynomial time is denoted as P
