one of the doubt i am getting how are u converting the base case of memorized code to tablar dp like in this case if(indx==0) { if(wt[0]

can we take the starting value of take as -1 ??

@@mdmurtaza8321 The dp is declared as dp[n][W+1]. In this base case we are trying(to handle index = 0 condition, i.e. 0th row on dp matrix) to fill dp[0][0 to maxWeight] so that filling dp for every weight till maxWeight. The for loop is starting with wt[0] because, the base condition is for 0th index i.e. 0th index wt[0] and we have minimum weight at 0th index, the thief can steal whatever element is there on index = 0 until weight of the element is less or equal to maxWeight (wt[0] to maxWeight) .

@@MadhavGupta-fi2tu Compare it to the base condition in the recursive solution. We can add wt[0] our knapsack only if its value is less than the target w, so for the index i = 0, we simply looped over all values from wt[0] to the target value w.

because, suppose that we landed at index=0, with the bag capacity still having >= weight[0], then we can definitely place the item which is at index 0 into the bag. So, for all the values of bag capacity>=weight[0], the value that we can return is value[0].

After you dropped the problem statement, I was like, "Let's crack this!" 🧠 So, I started with recursion 🤔, then jumped to memoization 📚, tabulation 📝, and finally space optimization with 2 arrays 🧳. Everything was going smoothly, and I thought, "Mission accomplished, time to skip the rest of the video!" 🎬... But wait-single array space optimization 😱?! My curiosity levels went from 0 to 100 real quick 🚀, so I continued watching. And man, when you explained space optimization with just one array, I was like 😲. The way you broke it down was pure magic 🪄-I was hooked! 🔥 You are the LEGEND of DSA-especially when it comes to DP, Grids, and Trees .

my DAA professor taught this question with tabulation method. but after watching this dp series now I got the intuition behind that approach!

[@shineinusa]

First of all thank you for the series. I believe the base cases from the previous and this video are un necessarily complicated. You can just check if(idx < 0 || w == 0) { return 0;}, we don't have to make 0 as a special case and write confusing base cases (if else's). once the index 0 is processed like rest of the others indexes, it should stop. I hope you take it as a constructive criticism!☮

[@SJ_46]

That's right if we only had to do rec and memoization, but in tabulation how will u initialize negastive index?? Ik it can be done, but then memo to tabu step will involve some extra work which is avoided if we do this way, also why will the fn have to handle a negative index in the first place?? it will never occur, idx is always >=0, in yr case it is becoming

Hello Sir this question seems to be a very simple and direct one when read for the first time if you have basic idea about DP on subsequences. But when you code it and visualise using the 2D DP array / matrix and check the test cases, only then one is blown away by the beauty of it. Also the manner how the previous Row is enough to evaluate maximum value adds to the class and excellence of the question !

[@anuragtiwari9793]

at 32:22 on line 18 why sir put everything on the first row as val[0]...because there will be cases when we also cannot have the first item if capacity is too less...there should be if and else block like in the memorization base case
