Course Code : CSE311

Course Title : Design and Analysis of Algorithm
Instructor-in-Charge : Mr. S.P.S. Chauhan

Course Description:
This course provides elementary introduction to algorithm design and analysis.it include the topics:
mathematics foundation, divided-and-conquer, dynamic programming, greedy methods, NP-completeness
complexity, approximation algorithms, randomized algorithm etc. At the end of this course student should
be able to understand the concepts and skills of algorithm design, implemental some well-known
algorithms and analyze the performance of algorithms.
Scope & Objective:
Theobjective of this course is.
Existing algorithm and Develop efficient algorithms for simple computational tasks.

Reasoning about the correctness of the algorithm.

Behaviors of Algorithms and the notion of tractable and intractable problems.
