Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In the context of dynamic programming, what does the term 'memoization' refer to?
  • Step 1: Understand that some functions take a long time to compute results.
  • Step 2: Realize that if you call the same function with the same inputs again, it will take the same amount of time.
  • Step 3: Learn that memoization is a way to save the results of these long computations.
  • Step 4: When you compute a result for the first time, store it in a 'cache' (like a box where you keep things).
  • Step 5: The next time you need the same result, check the cache first.
  • Step 6: If the result is in the cache, use it instead of recalculating it. This saves time.
