NP-Complete Problems
The course NP-Complete Problems is an online class provided by The University of California, San Diego through edX. The skill level of the course is Intermediate. It may be possible to receive a verified certification or use the course to prepare for a degree.

Learn about NP-complete problems, known as hard problems that can’t be solved efficiently, and practice solving them using algorithmic techniques.

Course description

Step into the area of more complex problems and learn advanced algorithms to help solve them. This course, part of the Algorithms and Data Structures MicroMasters program, discusses inherently hard problems that you will come across in the real-world that do not have a known provably efficient algorithm, known as NP-Complete problems. You will practice solving large instances of some of these problems despite their hardness using very efficient specialized software and algorithmic techniques including: SAT-solvers Approximate algorithms Special cases of NP-hard problems Heuristic algorithms
