int c[]={1,3,4}; // value of coins int k=3; //number of cpins that we have /* The d[20] array is for memorization, for instance if we computed f_coin_problem_memo(3), we put this value in d[3] and we don't compute it again, we just use d[3] instead of f_coin_problem_memo(3) */ int d[20]; int f_coin_problem_memo(int x) { if (x < 0) return 1e9; if (x == 0) return 0; if (d[x]) return d[x]; int u = 1e9; int u_old = 1e9; for (int i = 0; i < k; i++) { u_old=u; u = std::min(u, f_coin_problem_memo(x-c[i]) +1); } d[x] = u; return d[x]; } |

The minimum number of coins from the set {1,3,4} to sum up value of 12 is: 3 |
2)The most (least) costly path on a grid (dynamic time warping).
