Parallel and Distributed Computing
Divide-and-conquer is a powerful algorithm design paradigm that breaks a problem into smaller, more manageable subproblems, solves each subproblem independently, and then combines their solutions to form the solution to the original problem. This method often leads to more efficient algorithms by reducing the complexity of the problem and facilitating parallel processing, as subproblems can be solved concurrently.
congrats on reading the definition of divide-and-conquer. now let's actually learn it.
