  1. What is the difference between a heuristic and an algorithm?

    Feb 25, 2010 · An algorithm is the description of an automated solution to a problem. What the algorithm does is precisely defined. The solution could or could not be the best possible one …

  2. The best shortest path algorithm - Stack Overflow

    What is the difference between the "Floyd-Warshall algorithm" and "Dijkstra's Algorithm", and which is the best for finding the shortest path in a graph? I need to calculate the shortest path …

  3. How does a 'diff' algorithm work, e.g. in VCDIFF and DiffMerge?

    Here is a page that includes a bit of documentation, full source code, and examples of a diff algorithm using the techniques in the aforementioned algorithm. The source code appears to …

  4. algorithm - Difference and advantages between dijkstra & A star

    Oct 23, 2012 · A* is just like Dijkstra, the only difference is that A* tries to look for a better path by using a heuristic function which gives priority to nodes that are supposed to be better than …

  5. Is there an efficient algorithm to generate a 2D concave hull?

    The answer may still be interesting for somebody else: One may apply a variation of the marching square algorithm, applied (1) within the concave hull, and (2) then on (e.g. 3) different scales …

  6. matrix multiplication algorithm time complexity - Stack Overflow

    Jan 22, 2017 · I came up with this algorithm for matrix multiplication. I read somewhere that matrix multiplication has a time complexity of o(n^2). But I think my this algorithm will give o(n^3). I …

  7. Circle line-segment collision detection algorithm? - Stack Overflow

    Jul 2, 2009 · I have a line from A to B and a circle positioned at C with the radius R. What is a good algorithm to use to check whether the line intersects the circle? And at what coordinate …

  8. Tower of Hanoi: Recursive Algorithm - Stack Overflow

    Aug 3, 2009 · Although I have no problem whatsoever understanding recursion, I can't seem to wrap my head around the recursive solution to the Tower of Hanoi problem. Here is the code …

  9. What is the fastest substring search algorithm? - Stack Overflow

    Aug 13, 2013 · Each search algorithm comes in several variations that can make significant differences to its performance, as, for example, this paper illustrates. Benchmark your service …

  10. Why am I getting "Invalid algorithm specified" exception

    "Invalid algorithm specified" Took me forever to figure out and I tried practically everything. Step 1 - the certificate has to be SHA512 and use a CSP (Cryptographic Service Provider) that is …
