Hello people! In this post we will talk about Bidirectional Search, a powerful search strategy which can be used if you have a goal directed agent in a (possibly infinite) search space. The idea behind Bidirectional search is to run two simultaneous searches, one forward from the source state and the other backward from the […]
Hello people! In this post we will talk about another search algorithm Iterative deepening depth first search (IDDFS) or Iterative deepening search (IDS). This algorithm is used when you have a goal directed agent in an infinite search space (or search tree). Why do Breadth First Search (BFS) and Depth First Search (DFS) fail in […]
Hello, people…! In this post, we will discuss a new search algorithm, Jump Search, which searches for an element in a sorted array in O(√N) time. It is slower than binary search, then why learn it? What if the interviewer purposely asks you to write a search algorithm with O(√N) worst case complexity? You would […]
