Whenever you are faced with a problem it is normal to try to find a generic solution and then you implement that solution in code. But some problems might be too complex to solve by humans (and even engineers). Imagine you are a traveling salesman, about to visit 10 cities in Europe. You can visit them in any order. What’s the cheapest route? To find this out, we could use dynamic programming to let the computer solve the problem for us and just give us a result.
This is a theoretical talk that will introduce many algorithms in order to solve complex problems.

An interesting talk tackling common programming challenges that may not arise as often in the world of web development. Presented well, some hesitation in part because of language and making sure audience are keeping up, but given the quality of the talk I think you can have confidence to keep going
Great introduction into multiple algorithm paradigms, as well as the graph data structure
Very interrsting
Great examples, engaging speaker.
Very interesting talk, great speaker.
Good intro, some good references. Made an abstract subject quite accessible.
THE GOOD :
Very well presented, as usual.
Well explained, with animations :)
THE 'LESS' GOOD:
Lack of detailed code examples, i.e. what is the practical use of Dynamic Programming
All in all a good talk (as usual), however, I missed some dedicated examples of putting your thoughts on this subject to use in real world scenarios.
A good introduction into several topics of theoretical computer science like graph theory and computational complexity without getting too academical.
Great talk. This subject is one of those side subjects that you can live without knowing your whole life but if you know the basics it's makes you a better developer
As the title suggests, this presentation took some shallow dives into the world of dynamic programming. Witty remarks and the presentation style in general made this presentation very enjoyable, but I think more diverse problems and solutions could improve the substance of this talk.
Never grasped what Graph data actually ment, but now I do! Good build-up of the topic, and great examples. Thanks a lot for the talk
Nice intro about the subject
Nice talk, unfortunately I did know most of it already. I was expecting something different (based on the title)
