BBC Pattern recognition in practice
Why do we need to look for patterns? Finding patterns is extremely important. Patterns make our task simpler. Problems are easier to solve when they share patterns, because we can use the same problem-solving solution wherever the pattern exists. The more patterns we can find, the easier and quicker our overall task of problem solving […]
BBC Pattern recognition
Pattern recognition Once we have decomposed a complex problem, it helps to examine the small problems for similarities or ‘patterns’. These patterns can help us to solve complex problems more efficiently. What is pattern recognition? When we decompose a complex problem we often find patterns among the smaller problems we create. The patterns are similarities or characteristics […]

BBC Decomposition example: creating an app
Decomposing creating an app Imagine that you want to create your first app. This is a complex problem – there are lots of things to consider. How would you decompose the task of creating an app? To decompose this task, you would need to know the answer to a series of smaller problems: what kind of app […]
