When I first learned Thistlethwaite's algorithm, I was amazed by how it divides the possible Rubik's Cube positions into manageable groups to solve the puzzle.

For the assignment, I implemented Dijkstra's algorithm to find single-source shortest paths in a weighted digraph.

Shor's algorithm dramatically changed our understanding of which problems quantum computers can solve efficiently.

The team used a genetic algorithm to optimize the design of the drone's wing, dramatically reducing drag.

The research team used a memetic algorithm to evolve genotypes by combining genetic selection with learned, non-genetic improvements.

Scholars debated whether the Euclidean algorithm referred to a single method or a family of procedures in antiquity.

The randomized algorithm significantly reduced the expected running time of our sorting routine.

When faced with NP-hard scheduling problems, researchers often use an approximation algorithm to produce good schedules quickly.

We implemented the Viterbi algorithm to decode the most probable sequence of phonemes from the noisy audio signal.

In the contest problem, she used Euclid's algorithm to quickly find the greatest common divisor of two large numbers.
