“A heuristic technique, often called simply a heuristic, is any approach to problem solving, learning, or discovery that employs a practical method not guaranteed to be optimal or perfect, but sufficient for the immediate goals. Where finding an optimal solution…
The A* Search algorithm (pronounced “A star”) is an alternative to the Dijkstra’s Shortest Path algorithm. It is used to find the shortest path between two nodes of a weighted graph. The A* Search algorithm performs better than the Dijkstra’s…
Dijkstra’s Shortest Path Algorithm is an algorithm used to find the shortest path between two nodes of a weighted graph. Before investigating this algorithm make sure you are familiar with the terminology used when describing Graphs in Computer Science. Let’s…
In this blog post we are investigating different formulas than can be used to simplify a Boolean expression. Double Negation ¬ ¬A = A Complement Laws A ∧ ¬A = 0 A ∨ ¬A = 1 Idempotent Laws A ∧…
The question we will try to answer in this blog post is as follows: How can we measure the effectiveness/performance of an algorithm? First let’s consider this quote from Bill Gates (Founder of Microsoft): “Measuring programming progress by lines of…
Graphs are a data structure that can be used in computer science in a variety of context. You can check the following Python challenges which are all being solved using a graph and a short path algorithm, one of the…

In our previous blog post, “Binary Additions using Logic Gates”, we investigated how logic gates can be used together to create a circuit used in the ALU (Arithmetic & Logic Unit of the CPU) to add two binary numbers together.…
In our previous blog post “from transistors to processors” we found out that the CPU consists of logic gates, which are made using transistors. In this blog post we are looking at how these logic gates can be combined to…
Vacuum Tubes and Transistors: Many consider the transistor to be one of the most important inventions of all time. Though the precursors of the transistor were invented in 1907 (at the time they were not transistors yet, they were vacuum…
