Write a recurrence that would be used in dynamic programming for the following problem: Given a rod of length n and an array A of prices that contain all prices of all the pieces smaller than n. Determine the maximum value obtained by cutting up the rod and selling the pieces. Note that you could sell the rod at its original length without cutting it.

Consider the problem of making change for n cents using the fewest number of coins. Assume that we live in a country where coins come in k dierent denominations c1, c2, . . . , ck, such that the coin values are positive integers, k ≥ 1, and c1 = 1, i.e., there are pennies, so there is a solution for every value of n. For example, in case of the US coins, k = 4, c1 = 1, c2 = 5, c3 = 10, c4 = 25, i.e., there are pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters. To give optimal change in the US for n cents, it is sufficient to pick as many quarters as possible, then as many dimes as possible, then as many nickels as possible, and nally give the rest in pennies. Design a bottom-up (non-recursive) O(nk)-time algorithm that makes change for any set of k different coin denominations. Write down the pseudocode and analyze its running time. Argue why your choice of the array and the order in which you fill in the values is the correct one. Notice how it is a lot easier to analyze the running time of…

If you can make an optimal solution for a problem by making optimal solutions for its subproblems, then the problem has the quality in question. a) Subproblems that overlap; b) best substructure; c) memory; d) greedy
A robot can move horizontally or vertically to any square in the same row or in the same column of a board. Find the number of the shortest paths by which a robot can move from one corner of a board to the diagonally opposite corner. The length of a path is measured by the number of squares it passes through, including the ﬁrst and the least squares. Write the recurrence relation if you solve the problem by a dynamic programming algorithm.
In Duolingo, it is the case that whenever the streak - number of days it is used in a row - reaches a number n divisible by 10, one obtains n/10 so called lingots. There is a possiblility to buy streak freezes, each costing 10 lingots. How many days in a row, starting from day zero, one needs to keep up the streak without using a streak freeze in order to gain so many lingots that one can only use streak freezes from that day on?

Please don't use handwritting for this question How would you modify the dynamic programming algorithm for the coin collecting problem if some cells on the board are inaccessible for the robot? Apply your algorithm to the board below, where the inaccessible cells are shown by X’s. How many optimal paths are there for this board? You need to provide 1) a modified recurrence relation, 2) a pseudo code description of the algorithm, and 3) a table that stores solutions to the subproblems.
