Algorithms Midterm Exam: Solving 2019 Problems

This lecture covers the solutions to the 2019 Algorithms Midterm Exam, focusing on topics such as building a Max Heap, analyzing time complexities, and solving basic algorithmic questions. Students are required to demonstrate their understanding of key concepts in algorithms and data structures through problem-solving. The instructor provides guidelines on exam rules, including the use of handwritten notes and the prohibition of electronic devices. The lecture emphasizes the importance of clear explanations and detailed problem-solving approaches. Additionally, students are expected to implement algorithms discussed in class effectively. The session concludes with a discussion on recurrence relations and the analysis of algorithm runtimes.
