The P versus NP Problem (Part 8)

Показать описание
This video is the eigth in a multi-part series on the P versus NP problem geared for a broad audience (i.e., one with a very basic understanding of mathematics and computer science). In this eighth video I introduce (in an intuitive sense) the notion of NP Completeness -- which helps us understand the structure of NP.
My goal is to do a full series on the P versus NP problem , so you may wish to subscribe to the channel if you want to see all the videos in this series.

Man, is there no difference between an NP Hard and an NP Complete problem? Cause you start off by calling it an NP Complete problem then you switch at 9:10 to calling it an NP Hard problem.

Why bring up NP-hardness if you are talking about NP-completeness *facepalm*.  This isn't accurate.  You didn't even call the reduction its correct term when you claimed you did.  Your "transformer" is called a polynomial-time reduction or Karp reduction.
