Minimum Edit distance (Dynamic Programming) for converting one string to another string

Find the minimum number of operations( Insert , Remove ,Replace) to convert one string to another string. This is also called minimum edit distance.

[@lesliechiu1437]

You are the only teacher who can explain the Minimum Edit Distance clearly. Thank you, sir.

[@kuchikuchikunamma]

You are incredible brother, you have no idea how helpful it is for us to learn complex algorithms by watching videos like yours and few others, who share knowledge without any reservations, without expecting any $$$$, taking time off of your schedules and preparing high quality content like this. May God bless you with a very Happy & Healthy long life.

Pro tip: Watch at 1.5 speed :D

[@ariabanazadeh1016]

2 speed is enough to get :|

[@Vishal-nc8ju]

2x is best

[@prasannakumarz]

thats ok but thank him for providing the best....!

[@rohit.m.somani4157]

U can manage at 4.5x too

[@vinayak186f3]

@Toshiba Toshiba laptops 😥

[@JaspreetSingh-jw4xj]

This has got to be the clearest explanation that I've heard so far. Thanks so much! Your video has helped me a lot. You're a great teacher!

[@margaretpetermwanzia5738]

I can't believe it! So Magical! I can't believe that I have understood the Dynamic programming algorithm! The only teacher who has done it the best way in the history of my searches. Congrats sir.

[@timothyhan9735]

Great explanation! This is by far the best explanation of short edit distance and dynamic programming. I like the way how you breaks things down into smaller pieces to explain every detail and the slow pace explanation is really helpful!

[@agungtvsatu715]

great sir. thanks for teaching :) best video that explane the minimum edit distance that i found.

[@vivekanandkhyade]

Thanks Agung...!

[@atharvasawarkar9086]

Very Nicely Explained... 1st row and 1st column has been explained and no other video has explained it... Great!

[@suvai_kitchen]

Better than the other famous out there... Clearly explained on how to fill the table with various conditions. This is the core part. other videos just write the recurrence condition and take only one instance of edit operation and verbally fill the table. Thanks for this video.

[@timothythamboonkeat7291]

This is the most sophisticated explanation for MED that I have ever came across so far. Excellent job!

[@mohamedabdul633]

Finally, someone clearly explained the concept. Thank you for the subtle explanation.

[@Vishal-nc8ju]

best teacher on this planet for competitive programming comprehension

[@kkingbd]

I had to watch with 1.5 speed, He explains great. Thanks a lot.

[@vatsal_gamit]

THE BESTEST EXPLANATION ON EDIT DISTANCE ON KZbin!!!! Thank You for this video

[@blessingmakuwa4279]

Within the first one minute, I was already understanding, you really know how to explain...Thank you so much

[@jerryberin697]

This video is so well prepared that I needed only 10 minutes to understand the topic. Thanks!

[@jkscout]

Best video there is. Too many others are obsessed with looking good on camera, editing, and talking super fast and with lots of enthusiasm, but your slow step-by-step process really sticks. :)

[@jagginarendra]

the way you explained it, hats off bro. Please upload more videos.

[@namanjain7925]

I've watched 10 videos before this but couldn't understand. But this video is good to go. Thankyou

[@333AMEET]

Best explanation in simple words. NOTE: the last condition is if(str1[i-1] == str2[j-1]) //check in case of diagonal elements.

[@bhushanpalav4312]

Sir your explaination is amazing it should be the first video in youtube recommendation

[@javadsayevand8273]

To be honest, your explanation is amazing, you teach in a simple way 🙏

[@mohammedfawaz1847]

I got lost with the explanation of San Diego course but you ROCKED IT MAN! NEAT AND NICELY

[@cedong6412]

Really impressive, your table and explanation on the board are extremely helpful.

[@oxyht]

Bhai, dil khush ho jata hai explanation sunkar.

[@Human_477]

i am from pakistan and respect your teaching method... i already listen some of your video and experience was good

[@vishwatej99]

This is one of the best explanations i ever heard, thank you!

[@Artistic_Creations_]

thank you so much sir ! the first video i have saw that satisfied my knowledge on any topic at first attempt GOD bless you

[@vivekanandkhyade]

Thanks IKRAM..!

[@adityakyatham]

searched thru various videos this was the best and clear explanation ,thanku sir

[@LV-ei1ce]

Best explanation on youtube ! It would be great if you can help us find patterns in DP problems (Substrings, subsequence, Longest common subsequence etc etc). There is way too many patterns in DP problems, please help us understand the pattern and the formulas for solving similar types.

[@rochaksaini6419]

Your Dynamic Programming videos are the best on the youtube. Others just use the conditions to fill the matrix. One thing that can be improved is the explanation of the problem.

[@chandragirivishnuvardhan7654]

I have no words to say how awesome your explanation is sir....Thank you so much

[@gauravgoel4754]

Best explanation..Before watching this video.i have watched 2-3 videos for explanation.But nothing came from that videos.but this video really helpful.Great sir ...thanx

[@lordnk3698]

the world need more heros like him

[@vivekanandkhyade]

Thanks bro

[@PaulFromMalta]

DUDE YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!! Can't tell you how much this helped me. Perfect video. You take your time and make sure people understand. Appreciate it and love from the US bro!!!

[@tusakyeja6101]

Thanks alot Sir, for helping me understand the Levenshtein so easily. My Postgraduate seems more happier now.

[@aassthadas7054]

the best thing in you tube.such clear explanation,with great examples..you are awesome sir.

[@snehakathare572]

Brillient explanation..........! you r the Best teacher of DAA. Thank u so much sir. you save my marks regarding this concept. once again thank u so much.

[@chrisv7892]

yeah this is the best explanation. I tried the lady from cracking the coding interview and the douch from why i left google...no fun, no fun at all.

[@vaibhavrbs]

Gayle lakhman (CTCI) lady had a solution for this problem ? I am curious to hear her solution as well

[@AkhbarAlkawkab]

Amazing video it's recommended for me by chance and it's most beautiful thing happened I can't understand this from my doctor in university and from my 2 friends of me and finally i got it from you.... amazing bro keep going you are unbelievable ♥️♥️👏👏

[@MuhammadUsman-tn6bi]

Great you teach this topic in such an easy way which my university professor does not do

[@mariaiqbal5025]

Really thank you , about 9 mint lecture i completely know how to solve it further .

[@UNNIKS1]

Brilliant, clear, precise, humble, awesome!!

[@aarcheeecya]

I wonder why this video is not popular, best one on youtube, i have kind of understood well, and probably never forget, that is how you teach. Awesome Stuff! Subscribed.

[@User-0-0008]

Unbelievable explaintion I recommend very one must watch for understanding Edit Distance thank you so much sir

[@habalgarmin]

your explanation is super clear and helpful

[@_asher]

really well explained and drawn, thanks! i'd suggest watching at 1.5x speed

[@ComputerInfo]

Today i have study this topic in university but there was some problem but you have solved it for me...

[@2077mjc]

Best Best Best video on this topic I have seen on KZbin. Excellent teacher

[@JaySolanki91]

Your explanations are really easy to understand. You know how to teach the approach towards solving any problem! :) Thank you

[@bhupalirani6982]

Hats off sir! Not even geeks forgeeks explanation can compete with your explanation! Great job. Hope you will update all the videos on dynanic programming

[@TheRohkan]

long, but worth it..best explanation out there!

[@svdfxd]

Awesome explanation. Your way of teaching is such that you make difficult things look simple. Way to go.

[@barshapal_1227]

thank you..tried for 3 hours but could not solve....finally got video...thank you sooooo much

[@abishekk.j3773]

Crystal Clear Explanation......Thank you Sir👏👏

[@ubcVancouver2010]

best and clearest explanation on edit distance-!

[@kanwaloo6774]

Really helpul i watched many tutorials but i only understand your explanation

[@POLALOKESH-y3u]

thank u so much sir ... good explanation . very much helpfull for my tommorrows exam

[@corymilligan1613]

many thanks to you, still a great video years later

[@zorseba]

great, for the first time I could understand fill matrix step. thanks a lot. from now on I will search your lessons for my problems. please keep posting topics on bioinformatics' basics.

[@Mei-ir3ml]

Excellent sir, you are doing a great job!! God bless you!!

[@jamesqiu6715]

super super super clear 👍👍👍 and don't forget add this video to your DP playlist

[@ameyjadiye]

Good one, I saw many videos to understand this process ,I found this one simplest, Thanks!.. .. try explaining little fast though. I was also expecting Transposition introduced in damerau-levenshtein distance algoritham.

[@frankguo902]

Very clear to explain edit distance algorithm. Thank you.

[@swatimukherjee7125]

Clear explanation. Best one. Thanks and keep it up.

[@venkatagundlapalli6740]

Vivek- Your explanation is fantastic

[@pratikpatil4880]

This video helped me to secure 10 lpa job, thank you so much...

[@camuflagehugo5137]

Thank you very much! I have watched 3 videos with more views, but I failed to grasp the idea! Finally, I understand the idea from your explanation! By the way, I suggest you use an eraser, because the ink might be toxic and harmful to your health.

[@srilekha9177]

Excellent. Clear explanation. Very simple to learn. Thank you so much for this video. Upload more videos on Dynamic Programming. Have a blessed life. :)

[@venkateshvenky2880]

What is dynamic programming ?

[@Dima-rj7bv]

So simple and clear. I am happy I found this explanation.

[@bardamu9662]

Great video to run the algorithm. It would have been great to elicit on the rationale of the algorithm (why you are taking the minimum of (i,i+1), (i+1,i) and (i+1,i+1) terms in the matrix and relate this to their corresponding primitive operations (insert, remove and replace).

[@TheMihirthakkar]

This is very helpful. Thank you so much for simplifying these complex algorithms.

[@smkgeek716]

sir mashAllsh very good .........thanks for teaching....very good teaching method........ God bless you....

[@osasino]

You are a genius! You really helped me and i subscribed into your channel😉

[@sabbaralikhawaja]

Is this advanced analysis of algorithms? if yes then you have cleared my concept. Thanks mate

[@spbs-pv6jr]

Nice taught...better than other tutorials. :)

[@trishahasan2961]

I just love your explanation..

[@arnobchowdhury1804]

Did you just make a DP ques so easy to understand? I regret not finding it earlier.

[@ahmedmimo9274]

Thank you brother you are the best ! this is the third video I watched and I finally understand it !

[@akshaypoosarla6367]

Crystal clear explanation ! Saviour !!Thanks Man

[@_maverick.]

Great explanation! Thank you so much, man! You saved my life...

[@deepikatadakhe]

Handsdown the best explanation!

[@HuyNguyen-up7jo]

Best DP edit distance video on KZbin

[@algorithmimplementer415]

Awesome video. Very well done. Just one remark : if you justify why dP should be used to solve it, would be great.

[@pranavpawar7792]

Awesome explanation Sir...... Best video I have ever seen

[@NguyenThao-vu9de]

great sir! your explaination is very easy to understand.

[@ketchart2789]

Thank you, the explanation was top notch

[@swapnalimore5726]

Very nice explanation Sir. Thank you for this video

[@ltrinhmuseum]

Comparing 'b' and 'aab' breaks the algorithm, because you get edit distance of 3, whereas the optimal is 2. You get: Replace b->a, insert a, insert b. Optimal is: Insert a, Insert a, match b->b.

[@raashidshaikh3335]

What string are you comparing???

[@melissanielsen8313]

This is a great explanation, thank you.
