The phonebook example describes very well search algorithms. Radex is great for integers for example (doesnt need to compare values so to speak). Then for data you can use regular expressions with anchors etc. There are so many possibilities and with each language you can do it a bit different,computer sciences are awesome.

Phone book was a great way to introduce some concepts. Brought me to my first year of CS, immediately making me think of sorting in an array. Using algorithms such as halving it every time, if n < j then half the book again on the greater side. Etc. Something I didn’t realize is we actually do this as humans all the time. You wouldn’t tend to sort through every single page, knowing it’s alphabetized. You’d skip to half or you’d do some rough math in your head if j is greater than or slightly less than half.

Algorithms are used to solve problems, and the PhD student takes it one step further by focusing on creating the most efficient algorithms for those problems. So I guess you could consider his view better, but really it's just the next step in the process. An example is tying your shoelaces. You probably have your way of doing it, and that is an algorithm. But is there an easier and faster way of tying your laces, i.e. a better algorithm? That is efficiency. @@phi4444

Ironically (or not very), recipes are exactly algorithms - so if you're going to write down instructions how to do your PB&J, you're basically a computer scientist.

Kinda wished the last two guys stuck with the more “traditional” algorithms talk. Would have liked to see David talking about big data algorithms like streaming, parallelism, etc.

Tbh I’d say at some point it will morph into the AI talk. AI, machine learning in general essentially are non deterministic algorithms that we’re still trying to wrap our collective heads around. Keeping L4 and L5 confined in the traditional sense of deterministic algorithms like streaming or architectures like multithreaded processing is not something that’s worthwhile.

- Algorithms are everywhere in both the physical and virtual worlds and are important for problem-solving. - A computer is an electronic device with a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and memory (RAM and hard drive) that can perform tasks and store data. - An algorithm is a set of step-by-step instructions for solving a problem, such as making a peanut butter sandwich. - Precision is important in creating algorithms to ensure they are executed correctly. - Everyday tasks and routines can also be seen as algorithms. - Following precise instructions is crucial when using search engines like Google. - Algorithms are important for problem-solving regardless of a person's profession or field. - Precise instructions are key for success in computer science and in everyday life.

This was a bit shallow for the topic depth this series is known for - David was trying to focus on our understanding of complexity and the maths with the younger guests but was steered to talking about AI with the guests who were supposed to be experts in the topic of algorithms. Algorithms are important in AI but I think that should be another video here.

I like that with each level David goes up the less he has to speak. Like he started on level 1 and 2 where he was the only one mostly speaking and the others were mostly just listening and by the end at level 5, David was just listening.
