Code – Greedy Algorithms
Hey everyone! Ready to dive into the world of greedy algorithms? Don’t worry, it’s not as scary as it sounds! We’ll explore this clever approach to problem-solving where we make the locally optimal choice at each step, hoping to find a globally optimal solution. It’s a simple yet powerful technique that can lead to surprisingly efficient code, and we’ll walk through some fun examples together. Let’s get started!
Greedy Algorithms – Theory
Greedy algorithms make the locally optimal choice at each step, hoping this will lead to a globally optimal solution, though this isn't always guaranteed.

Greedy Algorithms – Problems
Greedy algorithms, while efficient, sometimes fail to find the best overall solution because they focus on immediate gains without considering the bigger picture.
