  1. How does a 'diff' algorithm work, e.g. in VCDIFF and DiffMerge?

    Here is a page that includes a bit of documentation, full source code, and examples of a diff algorithm using the techniques in the aforementioned algorithm. The source code appears to …

  2. What is Sliding Window Algorithm? Examples? - Stack Overflow

    Nov 25, 2011 · While solving a geometry problem, I came across an approach called Sliding Window Algorithm. Couldn't really find any study material/details on it. What is the algorithm …

  3. The best shortest path algorithm - Stack Overflow

    What is the difference between the "Floyd-Warshall algorithm" and "Dijkstra's Algorithm", and which is the best for finding the shortest path in a graph? I need to calculate the shortest path …

  4. is dijkstra an A* algorithm? - Stack Overflow

    May 23, 2025 · The A* algorithm algorithm can be seen as a generalisation of Dijkstra's algorithm, but there is one caveat: Dijkstra's algorithm can be used to efficiently find shortest paths to all …

  5. algorithm - Difference and advantages between dijkstra & A star

    Oct 23, 2012 · A* is just like Dijkstra, the only difference is that A* tries to look for a better path by using a heuristic function which gives priority to nodes that are supposed to be better than …

  6. What is the difference between a heuristic and an algorithm?

    Feb 25, 2010 · An algorithm is the description of an automated solution to a problem. What the algorithm does is precisely defined. The solution could or could not be the best possible one …

  7. Is there an efficient algorithm to generate a 2D concave hull?

    The answer may still be interesting for somebody else: One may apply a variation of the marching square algorithm, applied (1) within the concave hull, and (2) then on (e.g. 3) different scales …

  8. Fuzzy search algorithm (approximate string matching algorithm)

    The only way I can think of implementing it as a search algorithm is to perform a linear search and executing the string metric algorithm for each string and returning the strings with scores …

  9. Why am I getting "Invalid algorithm specified" exception

    "Invalid algorithm specified" Took me forever to figure out and I tried practically everything. Step 1 - the certificate has to be SHA512 and use a CSP (Cryptographic Service Provider) that is …

  10. Circle line-segment collision detection algorithm? - Stack Overflow

    Jul 2, 2009 · I have a line from A to B and a circle positioned at C with the radius R. What is a good algorithm to use to check whether the line intersects the circle? And at what coordinate …
