2.2.2 problem solving methods Flashcards
Backtracking
it works by visiting each path until finding the right path, then build a solution based on the right path, if a path is found to be invalid, the algorithm backtracks to the previous stage and visit an alternate path.
Data mining
this technique is used to identify patterns and outliers in a large data set.
it can be used to predict the future of something by checking it pattern
Heuristic
this technique is used to find an approximate solution when the standard solutions is time or memory consuming, those solutions are not perfectly accurate.
pipelining
process that allows for projects to be delivered faster, as projects are divided into individual tasks. those tasks are developed in parallel.
visualisation
data can be presented in a way that is easier for us to understand using visualisation
