From greedy shortcuts to dynamic programming guarantees, algorithm design techniques are the backbone of efficient problem-solving in computer science. Understanding when and how to apply each ...

Computer science involves much more than writing code. It blends technical knowledge —like programming, algorithms and data systems — with soft skills, such as communication and problem-solving.

Starting your programming journey can feel overwhelming, but with the right guidance, it becomes an exciting adventure. From learning the history and logic behind computing to choosing the best ...

A problem doesn't last a lifetime. But how you deal with it can make it linger for years without resolution. In my studies about the topic, I've identified that, in addition to everything that ...

Researchers have developed a new, data-driven machine-learning technique that speeds up software programs used to solve complex optimization problems that can have millions of potential solutions.

From choosing what to eat for breakfast to picking out what to wear to charting out a new project to saying no to a proposal, our days are full of decisions. Some are small, while others could affect ...

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science's High School Programming Contest brought together student teams from across the state to the U of A for a day of competitive coding.
