About this video
AQA Specification Reference
A Level 4.4.4.4-4.4.4.6
This video covers the concept that algorithm complexity and hardware impose limits on what can be computed. We discuss how algorithms can either be classified as Tractable or Intractable.
Key question:
-What are tractable and intractable problems?
