Toptal developers use a variety of techniques and strategies to tackle complex problems efficiently. They have a deep understanding of algorithmic complexity, data structures, and mathematical optimization, allowing them to choose the best algorithms for each task, such as sorting, searching, or graph...
Since Table Look-Up is faster than Sort-Merge only when T1 is small, the rule of thumb remains accurate because the sorting time is then negligible. (Even so, if T1 were extremely large, the time to sort it would eventually dominate all other factors, but this never18 happens in ...

These techniques can be broadly categorized into heuristics and metaheuristics. The primary difference between the two is that heuristics are closely tied to the specific nature of a problem, making them effective for particular challenges but less so for others. In contrast, metaheuristics present a...
of a metaheuristic algorithm involves a systematic search for promising regions of the search space. During the exploration phase, the algorithm generates a diverse set of candidate solutions by using various strategies such as mutation, crossover, and local search. These techniques allow the ...
As a consequence, we find students’ misconceptions on optimization algorithms [84] or, more specifically, on dynamic programming [16, 21] or branch-and-bound [84] techniques. Unfortunately, there are no unequivocal recommendations on the materials to be used in the study of the algorithms. ...

The thrust::inner_product and thrust::reduce_by_key algorithms can be used to calculate the sparse histogram of an array of values, i.e., a histogram where the counts of only encountered values are calculated. The process involves the sorting of the input array so that groups of identical...
These metrics are used to solve two classical problems in clustering: first, what algorithm clusters the data the best, and second, what number of clusters best suits the data? To answer the latter question, a couple of techniques can be used, including graphical inspection or implementing an ...
