I am looking for a manageably understandable example for someone who wants to learn Dynamic Programming. There are nice answers here about what is dynamic programming. The fibonacci sequence is a great example, but it is too small to scratch the surface. It looks a great subject to learn about although I haven't taken the algorithms class yet, hopefully it is on my list for the spring.
Dynamic Programming ExampleA fibonacci series is the sequence of numbers in which each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. For example, 0,1,1, 2, 3 . Here, each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers. Let n be the number of terms.
Dynamic programming is nothing but recursion with memoization i.e. calculating and storing values that can be later accessed to solve subproblems that occur again, hence making your code faster and reducing the time complexity (computing CPU cycles are reduced).
7 Steps to solve a Dynamic Programming problemIdentify problem variables. Clearly express the recurrence relation. Identify the base cases. Decide if you want to implement it iteratively or recursively.
